Hello,

I have been playing with the idea to add random and unique escape capsules to a ship.
Adding an unique model is done via

Code: Select all

"escape_pod_model" = "NewModel";

This works if i give the NewModel the

Code: Select all

role = "escape-capsule"

and although like_ship = "escape-capsule"; they don't seem to be drifting so fast around like the originals

Is a model added with this role also selected by other ships which would diminish itś uniqueness?

Is it possible for a ship to have several different escape capsule models, something like this

Code: Select all

escapepod_roles = (
	{ "role" = "[NewModel-A]"; min = 2; max = 2; },
        { "role" = "[NewModel-B]"; min = -2; max = 4; },
        { "role" = "[NewModel-C]"; min = 0; max = 12; },

Currently playing with the liners.oxp

Anyone know how to add different escape capsules to the same ship?

( maybe subentities, give the ship 'invisible' subentities with each its own escape pods)

Nope subentities doesn't seem to release escape pods
