Title: VUX Intruder's warp thingy doesn't work in UQM? Post by: **Frumple** on February 18, 2004, 11:42:55 pm In the original Star Control, VUX Intruders had the special ability to always start the combat at a very short range, while every other ship pairing got the distance randomized. This doesn't seem to work in UQM. So, what's up?

Never faced vux vs chmmr in pc? Title: Re: VUX Intruder's warp thingy doesn't work in UQM Post by: Death 999 on February 19, 2004, 02:08:07 am The story mode has this ability turned off so you don't get creamed. The melee mode has it in full force.

Now, 1.1 or more may have an options menu with silly stuff like this, but wait until then.
You know, a VUX is a slow and painful way to die. I mean, get enough limpets on anyone and it'll die, but I really wish that every limpet sped up the VUX a bit, instead of slowing down the enemy. It's annoying killing with or being killed by a VUX, cause by the end of it you're both moving like molasas. Uh, that's all I've got, really.
