 You mis-key on a tpad upgrade:
Would you like to place a subspace order for one? (Y/N) Yes You send an order for a Planetary Transporter to HVT and the moment the transaction clears the Galactic Bank, you notice a sparkle on the docking pad of your Citadel. The level 1 P-Transporter arrives quickly and is immediately ready to use! 50,000 credits have been deducted from your personal funds. Citadel treasury contains 0 credits. Citadel command (?=help) C <Computer> <Computer activated> Computer command [TL=00:00:00]:[3064] (?=Help)? B ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛ ARE YOU SURE CAPTAIN? (Y/N) [N] Yes You issue the command to your Ship computer to start the Corbomite self-destruct system. All of your crew jettison in escape pods, but you, the captain, remain behind with your vessel. You stand proud on the wretched remains of the bridge of your ship as the count down finishes: In a nearby sector, a Federation Patrol Ship notices a brilliant star suddenly flare and then die out in the distance...... Your flagship has been destroyed! Your pod has been destroyed! You will have to start over from scratch! Maybe you'll have better luck with a different ship! ==-- Trade Wars 2002 --== T - Play Trade Wars 2002 I - Introduction & Help S - View Game Settings H - High scores X - Exit |

I've done it trying to turn on the interdictor as well. THAT was an expensive lesson.

Do I ever play by hand? Sure, but that's why they make cby protection scripts.

And it's too bad the software won't work. It was quite expensive. Knowing my luck I'd tell it to World Trade and next thing you know it does the CBY. [:D]
