Post by Glowhyena »

When I won Descent game then go to the total menu, \"Ship Bonus\" appeared and 630,000. What I did that? How? ?0?

\"Bonus Ship\" is the score bonus you're given for having surplus extra lives. Obviously it's 10,000 per extra life.

P.S. This bonus is only given on the last level of a mission from memory.

I don't think finding all the powerups will give you a special bonus; at least not as far as I'm aware. It's just the flat rate, 10,000 points bonus per extra life.

This includes extra lives you gain every 50,000 points by the look of it.

\"Ship bonus\" does not mean the same thing as \"bonus ship\". The ship bonus is awarded, as said before, based on how many extra lives you have when you complete the level.
