because they only get half the chance to hit

That is an attack and defense modifier. That is not zero crew weapon stops working. Percent to offense/defense != Component Operation.

If the weapons couldn't fire, why bother setting them to half chance to hit?

Why bother setting them to half chance to hit if their's no crew to pull the trigger; or gnash the button, or whatever they do.

That's funny, and a good point!

Hi PES, first it was busy with work, then a family illness issue, then I had to have labral/rotator cuff surgery that took me out of action, just starting up physical therapy, and have to go back to work next week. I haven't had a chance to play the game since the day you guys figured out the fleet retreat bug I was having. Man, it's always something. I have been doing some lurking and have to say I admire your tenacity in looking for ways to improve this game. I'll say it for the 15th time, this game was stillborn (for me anyway) without the modders and users here to help out. (Thanks guys!)

I really can't add anything that hasn't already been said. The UI is my main gripe, the little bugs (like the one you guys helped me with, unarmed repair ship in 1st slot causing fleet to retreat) I expect will eventually get fixed, the AI is downright retarded most of the time, even with the balance mod. And I'm not knocking the balance mod, it improves the game mightily. Improving game speed wouldn't hurt either!

Keep On Keepin' On PES! (Now I've gone and dated myself.)

Because of the red-shirted corpses slumped over the big red buttons in the fire control center?

Of course... I always forget about them. Maybe because they never live long enough to be remembered.
