Some friends and I have found some interesting ways to manipulate parts of the game. For example, as of 1.12 (aka, last I checked…) the ship validation code appeared to only check that power and crew requirements were met - which could lead to some very interesting ship designs.
Cliffski - your work is quite admirable, and I would like to get your thoughts on full disclosure. I would like to be able to report our findings, but I don’t want it to be abused.
