Started playing again a few days ago and started wondering about a few things.

First one I asked on the steam discussion 2 days ago but got no replies.

1. I know you can use the trojan to disable a ships weapons and shields, at least according to the wiki.
But does it also disable the drone launch bay?
As in after a successful hack, will a Sul for example, no longer be able to launch drones?
And if so, does it also apply to ships with internal bays (stromvok)?

2. Quite a while ago I saw a thread that had quite detailed info about ship behavior.
Now I can't find it again, though I doubt it's been deleted.

iinm it does, but will be extremely troublesome during the hack so it tend to smash drone bays immediately before hacking or make sure it has no drone unit. As for internal dronebay i dont think it does though i never tested myself. I tend to smash all surface mounts to 10% instead of destroying them during boarding for easier repair

For your second point, use the forum Extra Search facility to look for posts by author 'j.harshaw' (a dev). That may turn up what you want such as perhaps this thread.
