Since the latest mod version I've noticed a problem. A couple of times I've attacked Molly gunboats ( NPC's ) and when they are about to explode Freelancer crashes -- I don't know if that affects anyone else on the server, but it definitely crashes my own game. Just now I was doing an IMG mission against Mollys, and the first hostile wing was Molly gunboats. I damaged them a bit myself, and waited while the IMG NPC's attacked them, and sure enough once the gunboats were heavily damaged the game crashed again. Incidentally, this is the first real "bug" I've ever come across in the Discovery Mod, and I've been playing it a long time.
they fly trough mine fields so their weapons get knocked out by mines...if u look closer u will see that they have some hull damage too...not much but some...
