My wraith was right up against the other BC with my ever so pretty purple color, they killed me but the explosion should have hurt them about 1K hull and killed the miner near me, unless the explosive radius was very very very small
i would post reply but i dont excactly know how.

The hit box of the bc isnt the radius of the shield that appears its a little smaller, you were probably just out of range. The plasma is meant to be a ramming sacrificial means of dps in its current state, although i wouldnt object to making the radius huge.

ya its like a !!NUCLEAR FREKIN BOMB MAN!! and the miner near me was startingly close but if blast radius is that poor then we do need to increase it, but nerf damage to 1K

only problem i see with making it too large is Kerm. By kerm you can have plasma, if you sacrifice 1 miner with a large aoe radius of 1000-1200 in a grouping at kerm (miners are always close at kerm. You exchange 1 miner for 3 and that can be a little big, a reasonably small yet effective radius is what id ask for. i havent tested the range personally.

Fyi, i have never had plasma transfer ever do anything, And if its t deal damage in an "area" or to "surrounding ships" whatever the description it needs a larger AOE cause it doesnt say, destroyed ships it is in hull contact with/that it is ramming.

There is some kind of bug with plasma transfer that I cant replicate in single player. If some experienced players (*cough* CCA) could play around with the plasma transfers a lot in a game and send it to me, I might have an easier time tracking down the bug.

Some things to try:

* Dying from enemy ship fire.
* Dying from enemy ramming.
* Dying from friendly ramming.

it would be nice to have an unranked option that doesnt count stats that you could choose
