Sixfortyfive's video: FTL - Freezing enemy crew w Mind Control Medbay glitch

@FTL - Freezing enemy crew w/ Mind Control + Medbay glitch
This video is a self-imposed challenge to see if I could freeze all 7 shipboard crew of the flagship in place without killing any of them. It's a bit on the long side because I didn't really have a plan going into this, so I'm winging it as I play. Skip to 3:50 to see the first example of this glitch in action. Read further for an explanation. If you mind control an enemy while he is being healed in the medbay, then destroy the medbay during mind control, the enemy crew will leave the room but will often presume that he's still in the medbay after mind control expires. Because the enemy AI is programmed to "remain in the medbay" until his HP is restored to 100%, you can abuse this glitch to lock enemy crew in place in neighboring rooms, preventing them from healing or from dealing with repairs or boarders in other rooms. Some actions will prevent this glitch from working, namely those that force the enemy AI to re-prioritize their current actions. The mind-controlled crew must not engage his fellow crew in combat before the mind control expires, for example. If the affected crew is healed to 100% HP through other means (e.g. Engi Medi-bot Dispersal), then he will resume normal behavior. Fires and hull breaches may also snap affected crew out of this haze, as the AI tends to call in reinforcements for further repairs whenever a fire/breach is fixed.
