Shooting your own wrecks now a criminal offence?

So, was running a mission, my first for a few days. Part of an epic arc actually. Not that that matters.

Had my paladin cleaning up some wrecks, wrecks that it had created mind, tractor beams going. Decided to shoot a couple of empty wrecks so that my mtu wouldn't bother pulling them in. Guns wouldn't activate due to safety restrictions. Strange, I thought, not had this problem before. Thought it wouldn't actually make any difference, you *must* still be allowed to shoot your own wrecks. Must just be some mix up in a patch. Disabled safety, blew up the wrecks, got Concorded.

Please tell me this is a bug? Please tell me they haven't made shooting your own wrecks illegal? This is the most catastrophic borking of code I HAVE EVER SEEN! And I played Rome 2 unpatched!

Criminal flag? For your own wreck? Huh...

That's a new one on me. Yeah, I'd send a petition for replacing your Pally and a bug report to let their bug hunters know. I'm pretty sure that's not suppose to be actionable by CONCORD. Shooting someone else's MTU doesn't even get you past suspect flagging and people shoot restricted (white icon and not yours) wrecks all them time with no problem.

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."

Thanks, just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed something in patch notes. I know they changed some stuff with wrecks, like hp or whatnot, thought this was a step too far though.

Bug report submitted, fingers crossed
