=== Bugs ===
During space combat, Tiddlets can be damaged. Damaged Tiddlets will not be collected when turning in the contract, leading to the shuttle and contract getting stuck until the player exits the sector. Leaving the sector leads to failure of the contract.
The only way to resolve this issue is to edit the [[Save file]] manually. The save file will contain one section, as shown below, for each Tiddlet. The <code>Damage</code> value must be set to <code>0</code>.
<code>
        BEGIN "[i 94]"   
            Id                  11319 
            Type                Tiddlet 
            Position.x          134.5000 
            Position.y          60.50000 
            '''Damage              5.101318''' 
            Toughness            5.101318 
            Scale                1.020264 
            OldPosition.x        133.5000 
            OldPosition.y        61.50000 
            WanderTimer          2.7404962732787288
