Title: Sa-Matra's Invincible Generator
Post by: danny on January 08, 2003, 10:16:28 am
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but the 3rd sheild generator clockwise from the force feild at the bottom will not die.  No matter what I throw at it (read:  "a perfect continuous hit with a Chmmr Avatar) it doesn't slow down.  All the other ones blow up just fine though.

Not had that problem with the .12/.2 build on Win98 recently.

I had the same problem. I drilled it with two Chmmr Avatar and hit it for about 15 minutes with a Pkunk Fury.

There a way to fix it?

Yeah, I'm having the same Sa-Matra invincible generator problem, but in my case there are two.  What is this unofficial forum release that fixes it?  Thanx

Get two Shofixti to destroys the two problematic generators. It is not easy to get them close enough (gotta be right next to it) without having a fireball blasting the little ship. So do that first and reload your game until you succeed. A couple of Utwig or Yehat are well enough to finish the job (gain some momentum from the green balls by shielding your ship while bumping into the balls, then shoot the generators as you pass by)

;)
