    and btw - do you also find the teleport-entering sequence in firefly so insanely difficult/unfair?

    Yes thanks, especially when you have almost full energy on a 7th level and need to teleport to get the last base and die!!
    Bloody Jonathan Sodding Smith! ;)

    By the way Mr S, my real reason for finding this topic was to ask; what's the logic for the little fish-bearing bubble ship appearing? Is it a RNG going for a 1/64 enemy appearance or is it actually getable by doing something in particular?

    It just appears randomly - but very rare.

    How rare is 'very'? Sometimes it pops up 2 or 3 times in 30 seconds, other times you can hang about forever for it, gradually dying next to a teleporter that you've just fallen out of the 12th time in a row.

    I really can't remember - I no longer have the code anymore. And we've gone off topic!
