I randomly explode

Post by Stardocking »

so im playing the terren campain and for no reason i explode so i play that mission agian ; at frist i thought i hit an asteriod but nope in open space i just explode does anyone know what that is?

Like i played X3R and thought it had great potenial but a steep learning curve can prohibit gamers. Its not the interface it a subject of toturals and more than one.

Hm....honestly no idea. Try to reload and then hit backspace for a full stop. Are there any missiles fired ? Are there any 'red' dots on the sector map?

So can you give more details on where/when this happens?

What were you doing, what mission, what sector were you in, where in the sector were you, that sort of thing?

Does it happen in the same place everytime, or does it change each time?

After the 3rd Terran mission means you've scanned the beacon and are now on the way to Oort Cloud? In what sector does it happen and what ship are you flying?

More important: do you have any mods or scripts installed?

I remember a thread early in TCs life where this was happening. I can't remember the result of it... I'll try to dig it up if I can.

:EDIT: Not sure if it's the one I'm thinking of, but it seems to be similar...

Leads to a question, since I haven't seen such a bug mentioned recently - are you patched up to 1.4? Since you're using steam, connect and do a 'verify integrity' to ensure it's patched up to date.
