Re: Screenshots
How do you do that? Can we script wingmen of various roles? With something like that it would be a great help for movie making...

Out of interest do you know how the code avoids them mass-locking you....? I saw earlier all three were at Torus speed?El Viejo wrote:At that stage of the OXP I'm testing, my two wingmen follow every move I make... even into a barrel-roll.mandoman wrote:El Viejo, that is one fantastic screen shot.

Re: Screenshots
The usual trick (at least mine) is to make them scanClass ROCK or CARGO, and then override their lollipop colours back to something that appears to be a normal ship.

Yes you can script any sort of wingman. Actually the following pictures show how they get into formation.drew wrote:How do you do that? Can we script wingmen of various roles? With something like that it would be a great help for movie making...

Wish I could hire a horde of four wingmen that would actually keep up with my fuel injectors. Very helpful on some hits, those boys.
Re: Screenshots
If you can make do with two, then download Hired Guns OXP...

Re: Screenshots
I've got that. They don't keep up with my fuel injectors.
Re: Screenshots
They do, just a little off-scanner for safety reasons (on both the injectors and the torus drive). Give them a few seconds after you slow down and they'll reappear and get back into formation.Dragonfire wrote:I've got that. They don't keep up with my fuel injectors.

Re: Screenshots
A fun move you might try with hired guns is to injector a bit past the target and then come back to it. If you time it right, just after you engage the target, your boys/girls will cruise up right behind them.

Re: Screenshots
Incredible!! I didn't know that was possible, but it would be one of you that figured it out, for sure. I'll have to give that hired guns oxp a try, though can I hire two Merlins to flank me?El Viejo wrote:At that stage of the OXP I'm testing, my two wingmen follow every move I make... even into a barrel-roll.mandoman wrote:El Viejo, that is one fantastic screen shot.
