I would *guess* something around 2/3 is quite fair, but this has to be veryfied by testing of course. > See above.

Hm, I played al least three games up to wave 5 or more. No special ship at all. How do you initialize the random number generator? Are you using a fixed value or are you using INTIM (like Berzerk)? > Not really a bug. But I can try to alter this, if you want to? ;-) Hm, there is no logical reason why they should stop shooting. Except they are drones that are guided by a mothership (like the Thargons in Elite), but then we would need that mothership. ;-) IMHO for the gameplay shooting is better, maybe even more aggressive to force the player to the exit. > I'm using the old DOS version too.

Z26 has been reported to have wrong PAL colors. If it looks ok on your TV, then it should be ok. :-) Have?fun!
