This should be fixed in recent builds. Try the 5.3

I mean it's nice, but I'll just wait for it to be included in the next version of Piratez.

Your choice.

But, where do you think the exes in Piratez come from?

If I'll get the updated Extended executable anyway, no reason to download the standalone. Reduces computer bloat.

Ah, yes, the famous computer bloat, makes sense.

So, if the breaks on your car stop working, you don't immediately repair them... because you're buying a new car in 2 years anyway, right?

Also, this isn't necessarily a bug, but Armored cars have a bizarre tendency to spawn in bathrooms and other places that they cannot leave.

That's definitely a bug, but we need at least a screenshot to find and fix the problem.

Cool. I also had a situation where it spawned in a garage that was blocked by a box. Didn't screencap it though.

Fond wish: AI that can shoot/hack its way out of crap spawns. Plasma packing mercs being rendered pointless, by waist high shrubbery, has stopped being hilarious after a few years.

I'd rather first have power armor walking through walls. But this too.


How to design all this though..

well the "blast self free" would be something like bug hunt in timing, if a unit can't path more the X tiles away from start point for Y turns, check if weapons can breach nearby surfaces, if yes pick at random and fire/swing. Tie to aggression value so hyper aggressive units start breaking shit quickly, low aggression stuff like civilians almost never.
