Thanks you for making the secret sector more common i have spent 15+ hours and idk how many runs trying to get it.

Ugh, that "teleport away when ship is destroyed" bug has saved my life a few times...

How about making it possible for them to surrender if they see their ship has been destroyed?

This.

I just got toasted by this. I was rolling pretty good.: four weapons, 2 shields, pre-igniter, drones, etc.

In sector 4, I was boarded just before taking out their teleport. They sent I four humans. I destroyed their ship but they kept fighting to the very last man. I think it would be neat if they joined your crew or something or thrown in a brig to be sold to slavers.

Also, just a question, I expelled the air but it seems to take them forever to die. My guys die pretty quick when they lose air. Is there a difference? Also, I think that opening the doors should eject them outside as well or at least slow them down.

Dang

Ah well, no regrets! Hope it's not *too* common.

perhaps a game dynamic that get's introduced later on where the remaining enemy crewmembers have a chance to join or continue fighting.. or maybe even something later on where they can implement a jail subsystem (that you don't start with) that can be used to capture enemy crewmembers on a % chance and then sell them to store for scrap

[GozerTC]

Yeah both asphyxiating them and/or capturing the borders would be nice. Those darn guys can hold their breaths a lot longer than my crew can! Also I too would like some chance, not 100% mind you, but a chance to have the remaining borders become members of the crew. (Mainly because I have a hard time keeping a good sized crew.

Sometimes I wish you could knock them out, put them in the brig, and the sell them as slaves .

[The Colonist]

Damned boarders! Brig would be really fun (and bribery/intimidate of course ).
