Argh - Q: Craig got blowed up in a bombardment

[jefftest]

just after I had won the 8th match (he's the manager of the Snake Lake Robot Warriors Arena).  Does that mean no (spoiler) Gladius for me?   None of the other arena people seem to be picking up the "ready to start the match?" dialogue.   Rats

[Erathoniel]

Yeah, probably no mecha rewards.

i just thought of a new use for biotech

you should be able to make a clone with his corpse

[Erathoniel]

That would be awesome, or, better yet, design your own biotech? For each level you have a slot on a chart, and you try to put pieces in. You use a kit (that provides a level bonus), organic materials (food, rations, et cetera, low quality stuff may put a penalty in), and science equipment to build the final creation from a template.

This should only be allowed if your character can also learn to regret playing god.
No, I don't consider it playing god, but it's part and parcel with the genre.

[Erathoniel]

Naah, the only consequence is that your lancemates die a lot and go back from XP 0 or constantly require neural backup.

You can try to add him again to your savefile. Just copy his data from another one and paste it.
The arena competition variables in GH1 aren't stored in the npc, and all named npc have a preset id.
I have done it one (took a few tries to get)

[Erathoniel]

You could always copy-paste them into backup files once you get them.
