Summary0029872: PMC Imposters are completely combat-useless + reference non-existent shell company
DescriptionPMC Imposters seem to be completely unable to engage in combat as of now. Every potential target is listed as blocked from attacking.

To some extent this makes sense, but a.) this happens even if you don't have a shell company and b.) it prevents you from attacking even units that logically should be attackable by anyone. In the attached screenshot, I can't fight gangs even though that's entirely rational that a corporate PMC unit would need to fight a gang. I really noticed this when the exocorps attacked and EVERYONE rallied to defend the city, but my PMCs still couldn't fight. I feel like they should only be restricted from attacking Vorsiber, SecForce, and maybe the major federated corporations. (I guess basically anyone that would flag you as defective?)

It's a bug for sure. I will work on fixing this prior to the 5th, but not until the 2nd. Thank you!

Thanks!

* Fixed a bug in the last couple of builds where the PMC Impostor was accidentally tied to your shell company, and the Female Mimic was not.

Wait, is the PMC Impostor not meant to be a shell company unit? I really thought it was. Especially given the "you work for a company now?" contemplation.

Pondering the utility of shell-company-aligned and non-shell-company aligned PMC Impostors, or even the ability to switch them from one to the other when Scrub Identity becomes available.
