Hostile Cerebrus. Again.

Post by deca.death »

There was a post similar to this not so long ago, IIRC no cause has been ever found. I have noticed red dot in my antigone memorial of a capital warship. There was an argon cerebrus, which I apologized to. He turned blue, but after a few minutes became red again, and this time his several escorts followed. I had no problems with argon, I haven't boarded argons ships for a very long time, i had no illegal goods on myself (i doubt any of my ships had too) and my enemy settings were as usual. My rep with argon was as ever highest possible. I have no illegal industries in argon sectors.

Now i had a boarding in antigone not so long ago, a stray pirate dragon (!!), I see very few pirate M6 running around, maybe even none outside the missions, few of them are in a core pirate sectors, soo i took this opportunity and boarded it with my usual griffon - cobra team. I believe there was no friendly fire , even if i fryed some unlucky trader, it shouldn't matter so much.

So i did what i do best - I boarded cerebrus : ) I apologized to everyone, no problems now. I was just curios why that M7 had picked up on me?? Any similar experiences?

Another thing, I noticed that Cerebrus had full compliment of fighters, however that boarding went wrong, I forgot about SB and it was destroyed : ( and when I reloaded, they were gone. It would be great to steal a ship with all the fighters inside, but somehow i doubt it's possible...?

I believe I was the first person to really bring this to light a few years back. Was a Cerb too... I never managed to fix it. :S

Yes this has happened to me in my current game. I had a hostile Colossus which took out a couple of my ships in Ringo Moon. At the time I had a combat rank of harmless, so I know I didn't do anything to annoy the Argon. But it disappeared as quickly as it arrived so I don't know what caused this... :roll:

A Colossus? Wow.

That's gotta be a bug.
