    • I miss Captain Hector


      It's just not the same without Hector flying past from time to time... is there a plug that put him back in the game as a pers? It'd be cool to see him zooming around in his little blue Helian... Preferably one that I can shoot to pieces. (That &^Ł$# owes me about 2 million credits.)

      I suspect this has already been done... it seems so obvious.

      I don't believe there is a plug, since so many people register EVO because they are so sick of the annoying and greedy scum. 🙂 It was good thinking on Ambrosia's part to put in Hector, to ensure no pirating. As far as a plugin for a peaceful Captain Hector, though, I haven't seen one, atleast up to date.

    • Well, I geuss you could make a Captain Hector pers, but we wouldn't appear not nearly as much as he usually does, unless you make something like 100 Captain Hector pers.

      Yes, might be a good idea. Just as long as he dosen't send any "don't forget to register your software shareware fee!" hales...I hate those. 🙂

      I'm always making the mods mad doing something or another, but I'll never learn! I'll never turn! Look at my karma!

    • Well as long as it's easily possible to rip him to shreds I wouldn't mind having him back in a plug.

      Yes..............yes...........the hunter becomes the hunted! evil laugh wuh hahahahaha! I wouldn't blow up Hector's ship, I'd leave him to drift out in space, alone, oh sure, I'd take everything he has; fuel, money, ammo, but I wouldn't kill him. Death is too peaceful and honourable a fate for Hector.

    • I have never bothered to kill him, oh that would be fun, oh the delight.

    • I would love to see Hector's ship fly off in flames, like most other Helians that don't leave me alone. 🙂 He's stolen so much of my money, I would think he lives on Pariah and is leader of the Renegades. Oh, the savage...

    • I would LOVE to take revenge on Hector, he has taken more than 20 million credits at one time! How is it determined how much he takes anyway? Is it a percentage? Or is it a value that grows with time

      Ouch...He's really stolen that much from you? That's over two crescent warships that could be in your hands! 🙂

      You're right. Cap'n Hector was not there to keep people from stealing the game engine, he was there to annoy you into paying for the game, by reminding you, then after a while shooting you (in that unkillable ship of his, curse it t all the hells there ever were), and every now and again, stealing credits from you. I almost had enough to buy a U.E. Carrier once, and when I launched with my last cargo run before I bought it, Hector struck and stole 1 million from me.

      Yes, I would like to be able to kill Hector. insert evil, insane B-movie mad scientist-style laugh here, including thunder-and-lightning SFX

      Yes, that African Grey parrot drives people who haven't registered EVO to insanity, then comes out of the computer and takes all your left socks and toothbrushes. 😉
