Re: Shields

Well, that may be easy but it will add a bit of a twist and make snowspeeders not want to stay in your sights for too long of a time. However if damage is like it was in GC where it didn't take too many shots to down aircraft than that percentage range would be great.

Re: Shields

I just realised.  We've killed another thread.

Having selftracking turrets would be awesome, because it would force the rebels to THINK and use strategy and teamwork to take out the AT-ATs.

Re: Shields

that would be cool, but unfortanetly bf2 multiplayer has no AI. Also the devs of shattered faith wanted to try radar guided guns (like having the gun autotrack a target once it has been locked on) but unfortanetly this is also impossible.

Re: Shields

But what about using the missile directional tracking code for the guns like I suggested?  Is that impossible as well?

Re: Shields

Thats what I meant, and yes unfortanetly it is impossible according to the Shattered Faith devs (aka gods of coding).

Re: Shields

That is troubling that they say it is impossible.  I'm guessing that that code can only be applied to projectiles? oh well, who knows, maybe our devs can pull it off. *hopes really really really hard*

Re: Shields

Actualy, come to think of it, there is no guidance system for the gun it's self. It does track the general direction, but you still have full control of it. Although I do like your idea.
