Re: Auto-turrets

The Death Star definitely needs AI controlled turrets smile

Civs would be cool too, even if they had no purpose at all except atmosphere, as in Jawas running around screaming. Haha...

Or civs defending there cars... You have to kill teh civ to get his car / thing.

Also are there any space mines in starwars? Like spit out some mines in space and they then follow any enemy ships? That would be kinda neat.

LOL i would save that for a GTA mod. But i believe that might be impossible because the AI might have to be set down by a player

Re: Auto-turrets

Yes exactly... And I would think the AI for the drones would work... Just give them a short little box of waypoints to patrol, and the equivalent of a shotgun in Star-Wars. Wouldn't even take up a player class or anything.

I'm sure its not that simple for the coders though, haha

Re: Auto-turrets

Re: Auto-turrets

I think the devs have slightly more power than that.

Re: Auto-turrets

ok I am assuming that the drones don't take up a player slot... They are just bots in a little drone allied to that team... So why can't that be put into a different model (Civilian) and be on the rebels side or imps side?
