Yes, I uploaded as a separated OXZ. Install Carriers with turrets v1.0 within the expansion pack manager if you want turrets on Carriers, including NPC Carriers.zdoofop wrote:can you make an op one with ball turrets
Can't yet. It need serious extension of Escort Deck, which is a player only feature at the moment. Need to implement the deck for all NPCs first before adjust the script of carriers to use it. Unfortunately nowadays I have time for little projects only and this is definitely a larger one.cbr wrote:Do npc carriers launch their fighters?
This is another deck feature which easy to implement. There are some others also in my todo, but can be in the next update in the deck's topic.cbr wrote:Is it possible to lock certain 'positions' so when launching the locked ships stay on the carrier
A nice side effect of the current NPC carriers that the locked escorts are firing in sync with the main ship, like equipped with many forward lasers.Cmdr Memelord wrote:The feeling of swooping over a carrier with the ships all around firing lasers
Code: Select all
orientation = ( 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0); position = ( -67.5.0, 19.0, -97 );},
{ subentity_key = "adder-player"; type = "standard";
orientation = ( 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0); position = ( 67.5.0, 19.0, -97 );},

Well done! That warning is gone, and all of a sudden the Carrier OXP has 23 ships.
I have been trying out the Carriers (with turrets) and find it excellent, but I have a few questions:Norby wrote: ↑Sun Jun 15, 2014 8:58 am
The total cargo capacity is 100t with 5 Cobra Mark I on board, but you will not see this in one piece. You will be able to switch between your ships when you are in a dock but you will see one cargo bay at a time. If your goal is a really big trader ship then gather enough money to buy two Anacondas into your carrier.
You bought all ships so should follow your commands. For example you can choose your ship before combat and others will serve you as escorts, including the Carrier. Many commands like "attack my target" are implementable in scripts so I think this will be well playable in Oolite 1.77 also.mossfoot wrote:I love it, but how is it meant to be used by players? Are there squadmate/wingman commands I'm not aware of? Is this a 1.8 thing?
so I have that to play with...
