Okay so I disabled debris from the game options and yet I keep magically dying because enemy ships magically become invincible after being destroyed and then inexplicably destroy my ship. I've tried enabling the 'disable ship collision' option but then I magically stop progressing for no reason whatsoever... implying I'm enabling a cheat... which I'm clearly not.

Seriously how do I disable this cheat, because I'm fed up this shit ruining my game runs!!!

Which game?
This is GENERAL discussion.

Well, you shouldn't disable debris, you should sweep it up with a broom and dustpan!
(Seriously, if you somehow end up in the general forums, try to explain things.(

Don't ram other ships, it's dangerous!
