Planetary Attack Command [Q] D
<Set Atomic Detonators>

<DANGER> Are you sure you want to do this? Yes

As you give the order, the weapons officer engages a code sequence
that arms the most potent weapon the Federation has ever developed,
the powerful Nuerevy Atomic Detonator. Each corbomite-encased anti-
matter warhead is powerful enough to shatter a continent. When
several of these disaster machines are exploded simultaneously along
the fault lines of a planetary body, the resulting force is sufficient
to reduce it to the interstellar dust from whence it came. A flight of
your K3-A fighters takes the planet-busting bombs to the sites
selected by the computer as being the most devastating. You then blast
off from the planet as quickly as possible. A single laser blast from
your fleet triggers the massive reaction that is truly astounding.
Luckily, your crew has enough time to move the command ship out of
the blast range so that you can watch the destruction and enjoy it as
well! Unfortunately some of your fighters did not return from the
awesome implosion.
For blowing up this planet you receive 50 experience point(s).
and your alignment went down by 1 point(s).

Just looks like bounds checking. You hadn't named the planet, but a blank planet might screw something up... so the game just gives any unnamed planets a default name of "New Planet" ...

There are a handful of defaults like that thru the game.

"New Player" is one of those before the new player puts the alias in - and they show up as in pod.

Yeah but i guess i just figured the alien would blow up when i blew the planet. Seems kinda odd that it wouldnt.

Yeh, guess not tho.

guess not.

Yeah aliens are as dumb as us traders they know how to get around that kinda stuff funny i saw this post i was tryin this yesterday for fun.
