How come no one ever strappped the dictor bubbles to a rocket so it actually TRAVELS. I mean what we're seeing here is like whining about our scourge rage rockets only having the warhead and no propulsion system at all.

I nearly DIED man. The module is clearly named "Interdiction Sphere LAUNCHER".

Now, the "Bomb LAUNCHER" actually launches the bomb out 30k. It keeps the lotion on the skin and the pilot in the ship.

But the interdiction sphere launcher? There is no launch! I was in the middle of the bubble! I NEARLY DIED PEOPLE!

The module needs a more descriptive name to better illustrate what it is. Maybe "Bubble maker for suicidal people". Something like that, because there is no launch to that module!!

Let's all have a sing-a-long children!


Chorus
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.
They fly so high,
Nearly reach the sky,
Then like my dreams,
They fade and die.
Fortune's always hiding,
I've looked everywhere,
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.

Verse 1
I'm dreaming dreams,
I'm scheming schemes,
I'm building castles high.
They're born anew,
Their days are few,
Just like a sweet butterfly.
And as the daylight is dawning,
They come again in the morning.

Chorus
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air,
They fly so high,
Nearly reach the sky,
Then like my dreams,
They fade and die.
Fortune's always hiding,
I've looked everywhere,
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.

Verse 2
When shadows creep,
When I'm asleep,
To lands of hope I stray.
Then at daybreak,
When I awake,
My bluebird flutters away.
Happiness new seemed so near me,
Happiness come forth and heal me.

Chorus
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.
They fly so high,
Nearly reach the sky,
Then like my dreams,
They fade and die.
Fortune's always hiding,
I've looked everywhere,
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.

Maybe 'interdiction sphere dumper' would be better? Lol

if you think that's bad OP, wait till you die despite the fact that you have an INVULNERABILITY field on!! I've been ticked off about the naming of that thing since late 2007.

what happens when you activate two invulnerability fields ?

First one makes you invulnerable to outside damage, second one makes you invulnerable to internal damage (overheating or self-destruct), obviously.

Yeah, it totally should be named 'interdiction sphere dropper', because it drops a sphere right outside your ship Lol

The bubbles anchor upon launch. Lots of things are launched in similar fashion. Mobile tractor units and such. Hell even bombs will sit still if you aren't moving.

It sounds like you didn't do the rotation right. You need to align in the opposite direction you want the interdiction sphere to go and immediately activate both your MWD and bomb launcher. When you see your ship start to glow, you'll know it's time to activate the interdiction sphere launcher without worry that your ship will be caught in its own bubble.

You forgot to mention that its kinda glitched right now tih damage controls interfering with the functionality. Make sure the damage control is off when you do this.

OP makes a very good point about this inconsistency. CCP should immediately change bombs and bomb launchers to behave the same as disruption sphere launchers to reduce confusion.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

That's an urban myth, I thought?
Or is it the other way round?

But is does launch, just not very far. Something like 1500 m +/- 200m.
