Bug Description

Binary package hint: vegastrike-data

There is a known problem with ships spawning directly in front of the player in vegastrike 0.4.3. This problem is apparently fixed in CVS but the current plan appears to be that there will be no further 0.4 releases.

The following forum post describes the problem:

The attached patch (linked from the above URL) is a workaround for the problem, causing ships to spawn slightly out of the player's way. It involves a change to one line in one .py file (/usr/share/games/vegastrike/modules/launch_recycle.py) which involves about three bytes.
