The screen kinda cirlces around the spot where I was, then acts like I exploded.

yea some of the ships dont always explode. i noticed that myself particularly in my wraith and atlas

Just poof, no explosion. This bug as actually been around for a long time. I think even before 3.2. I'm surprised it still hasn't been fixed. It's not lag related either, btw.

I know exactly what the problem is but it's not high priority right now and it's not super easy to fix.
Thanks for the update, though.
