Iskander, I'm surprised no one has mentioned it (that I caught) but I absolutely love your backstory.
I think it'd make a really funny sci-fi short story, coming up with the hazing of this poor crew member. And I felt it had a lot of practical truth, definitely one of the better perspectives I've seen when looking at how futuristic science really will be.
Also, has anyone else tried ZA, Special AI, and Special Mobs all together? I find it has a high risk-high reward aspect to it that I really enjoy early game, even if it does kill me a lot. Only thing I want to find a fix for is mobs glitching into my humble shack, hitting me a couple of times, and then rubber-banding back outside when I hit them back. Although that is funny when it happens.
