minor bug in 0.920 / questions

[Smogg]

bugs:
- ultimate weapon race description not displayed correctly in character screen

some things that still aren't quite clear to me:
- does the "fighter siphon" skill heal fighter shields?
- does the "ambush" skill work with ramming?
- does my attack/radar help my fighters in any way?
- do bigger ships have bigger hitboxes?

Fighters get 50% of the player's Attack, Defense and Tactical damage bonus. No idea about the others.

Regarding the bug, in character.mnu there's this line RaceDescFringeSubraceWeaponCShared

It appears twice, there's an extra C before Shared. I think that's what causes it.

i just noticed that this actually is mentioned in the manual. so installing sensor components on a carrier will make a difference then.
