When I was looking at EVO with ResEdit I noticed this under the DITLs:

Anyone know what in the world this is?

(edit)it has come to my attention that this is a fake, however I think its pretty funny. I found it when trying to find the intro text for the game.(/edit)

Sorry, but this has been around since Escape Velocity 1.00.

It's not fake, it just doesn't do anything.

I think he knows the image is real, and since it's on his website, he probably took it.

you were saying the image was fake. As he said, it's a real image of a fake DITL.

No, what I was saying is that the DITL isn't particularly fake, it just doesn't do anything. Matt has even hinted guardedly once or twice that it may at one point have had a function (presumably the classic EV equivalent of the developer-cheats that were present in some beta builds of EV Nova).

cough perhaps I wasn't clear. As we both know, the DITL resource exists, but never appears in the game. Taylor posted a genuine image of its appearance.

I guess "non-functional" would be a better word than "fake"...
