select new char glitch

well if all of the above is true....


then how come this sorta thing never happens when i use alt+f4 exit?


technically it should be under the same principle


and ive flown that eagle through enough hostile tradelanes and hostile npc patrol convoys before to know what it`s sheilds can and cant do


i severely doubt that anything short of a dreadnaught in an npc patrol wold be able to swing around the planet and snipe my eagle in the minute or so it took me to get back on


(and besides i was parked 5 inches away from the planet`s atmospheric barrier.....and at 0 speed there was no danger.....)

i mean seriously..i have doen this same exact scenario hundereds of times in both single player and our disco here....ive even pulled this off in various places in dublin when the server is full....and a pirate is usually more dangerous than npc patrols


i beleive thats shows a difference between the alt f4 exit method and this one....even though the same time delay applys
