Then I saw this under "Ghost ship"
Also, there was a literal Ghost Ship event that was planned, but never finished, involving a ship crewed by ghosts. Sadly, the unfinished nature meant that "Ghost" characters were almost completely Dummied Out, nonexistent except for save-file editing and a single natural occurrence in the Final Boss fight (an invincible and invisible Ghost provides the "Advanced AI" for the Flagship).
Is that actually true? Is there some sort of invisible guy going around fixing the Rebel Flagship up? Or is it just that the people who made the TVTropes page don't know how FTL actually works?
Because you'd think an invisible ghost would want to do something about the boarders in the shield room.
I'm assuming the Rebel Flagship's AI is like the automated ships but better (I'm under the impression systems are fixed twice as fast. That true or just a matter of perception?)
