Either way it was glorious. MC'd one of those defender drones right in the drone bay and the entire crew of the ship basically threw themselves at a self-healing super-amped sentinel drone. By the time the MC duration was over, there wasn't much left to clean up.

I might have the term "sentinel" wrong. I mean the internal ship drone that helps you out by attacking borders.

edit: And I should be clear on the fact that I'm not 100% sure I pulled it off with the engi ship. I just noticed that it didn't work 24 hours later on a non-engi ship.

The important takeaway here if you are new to this phenomenon is to buy the freaking game because obviously there is some !@#$ that is subtle enough that it might be bug, might be detail.

This actually makes some sense since the Engi are supposed to be at least part mechanical aren't they? Though they still need regular amounts of oxygen.

Then again I can't imagine that the ship type would have something to do with it - especially since no Engi ship comes with mind control as standard.

Probably one of those one-of-a-kind difficult-to-reproduce bugs...
