jdawg4876: Im playing sm2 and one of my wingmen named spirit keeps dying for no reason, same thing happened im sm1 but I was able to fix it bc of a save game editor that someone had at the wing commander website. I tried using the editor again for sm2 but my save files are not there bc sm2 is a different exe than wc1/sm1. any Ideas???

Ferdish: Hi, I'm sharing the similar problem with Spirit in SM2, flying second mission with her. It is a hard one, as keep 4 Krants and 4 Dralthis from Drayman is a difficult task. I managed to finish mission twice so far and then it looked like, I don't know, like she rammed it into the Claw, or like her Raptor exploded just like that for unknown reason! I mean WTF??? Should I try to maintain a big distance from Tiger's Claw (let's say 15000 kms), try to lure Spirit away from it and then try to make a quick landing?

uchos: That sounds like the infamous diying wingman bug (assuming you have used the transfer program to import your character into SM1/SM2).
Look in this thread for the solution (use the save game editor linked).
