Re: Vehicle Spawning

@Model thing:

Also, a heck of lot of lag. Probably best left to lie.

Couldn't you use a uav style vehicle, a drop ship, that could fly down on scripted courses and drop vehicles on spawn positions? Or how about instead of dropships, the equivelant for ground transports towing the vehicles down roads until they reach the drop point.

I'm not that knowledgeable about the BF2 engine, but I doubt the towing idea would work. But the dropship, if you could get the UAV to fly striaght (probably possible) you just make the UAV look like a dropship - then spawn a vehicle drop underneath it. If done right, It should look good enough. PLus, since the UAV can be destroyed, no reason why transports cant either (although with higher health, obviously).

Re: Vehicle Spawning

Well I would think that ships that have hangers in them in the movies would have hangers in them in the mod. I can't wait to see what it's like to board a ship in this mod. Wonder if it's just as deadly as GC was? Even though this mod isn't GC, it was still painful.

Re: Vehicle Spawning

It wasn't too hard to board in GC, just the Carracks were hard. But once on board I had fun with my knife smile

Re: Vehicle Spawning

I hope to see some major boarding action, but alot thicker than 1 guy sneakin in. Hopefully something akin to the titan boardin we've seen from 2142.

Re: Vehicle Spawning

Well we saw that Lambda shuttle, so even though it's obvious, that may really put value on boarding.

Re: Vehicle Spawning

On the topic of hangars: How big will they be? Will they be movie accurate (stupid question, but after playing SWBF2 I need to ask)? What will be in them? Finally how many per ship.
