I'm not aiming at anyone, just saying to you or anyone else reading through this that there is no need to worry about the catbomb making you lose the drop you were going for once you see it. It's simply cannot happen the way the game is coded. You can only get catbombed on api calls, for example you can play through a map, disconect your internet at any moment and go make some tea, come back later plug back your internet and continue the map. No call no cat.

When you see the drop, even with viewers showing it before the game does, it's already in your inventory at that point you can disconect your internet, close the game, set your computer on fire, doesn't change a thing.

Now before anyone comes up with more storytelling, if you legit somehow managed to magically lose a drop, well the universe is probably out to get you and it's a miracle you are still alive, i'm impressed but this would be the exception that confirms the rule.

TLDR: Cat bomb can happen before drop = lost potential drop.

If you see the drop and it's the ship you want it's already in your inventory so no worries no matter what happens unless an asteroid wipes out the servers (which is more likely).
