Trivia
- Admiral Swiggins is notorious for being the only fannaut to be able to get into the game. However, this is partly untrue. After some investigation, it was revealed that the character Ayla was based largely off of a fannaut that had been created very long ago by the same name. Also, Ronimo has taken inspiration and ideas posted on the forums for other things within the game, as they are leagally entitled to do so.
- Even Admiral Swiggins' artistic design had help from the community. The artist had a thread open on the official forums where he took in ideas and suggestions for his designs.
- Yes. Those teabags are, indeed, inside of his tank.
