In Response To: Writing on the ships? (Some guy)

: I seem to recall hearing that "boomer" was scrawled on the phfor
: ship, was there anything else like this anywhere throughout the game?

I don't recall reading or seeing anything else plastered on the outside of the ships off the top of my head, though it appeard that "BOOMER" was painted over the existing (Pfhor-lettered) ship's name.

Vaguely on the same topic, just how do you paint the outside of a star ship? All kinds of zero gravity (can't use paint in a bucket; it'll just boogie its way right on out of the bucket at the slightest disturbance) and lack of atmosphere (can't use an aerosal spray can; as soon as you open the valve it'd just implode) problems spring to my mind.

Also calls to mind the bit in the opening sequence of the first few seasons of the British comedy show "Red Dwarf" which have a space suited figure either washing or painting (I've never been sure) the outside of the ship.
