... my ship looks like a tiny ant in it's jaws. It's so small I wasn't sure it was there at first. Just a cosmetic issue.
Midoki is trying to tell you that you are nothing more than a piece of sushi in the jaws of this behemoth.
I wonder if it still does that on other levels of ships? I'm sure QA was testing with a maxed ship, so graphics issues with older content like that would go unnoticed. But its probably still going to happen at ship 7. Its definitely silly to see, surprised it didn't catch their eye.
