Player ship docking

[Flash Mp]

Yeah the shields would need to go down, but that would mean the cap ship is open to hull damage.

I just had an idea, how about being able to "train" npc characters on your capship and deploy them as needed? Like, the more you train npcs, the better they get at combat along with better fighters/bombers and weapons.

The Amon Cire Chronicles - Haven Cruising, BOOK PASSAGE TODAY!

Not to mention being totally impossible. You can have NPC wingmen, but it gets difficult and takes some ultra-hax.

[Srkad]

Its been done, it can be done here. that's all i have to say.

[jimmy Patterson]

never throw out an idea til lyou test it there seem to be a lotta coders/devs in the comunity it could work

kudos tommeh for sig

[Rashnok]

The NPC training is impossible. NPC wingmen and player docking are possible, but bugger and rather difficult to implement. I see no reason really why Discovery would even need these.

Lets not let the fear of rule breakers hold us back from making this game all it can be!

That's the spirit!

I wrote a really funny FL story, but it disappeared when the old forum went away. So, no lulz for you today.

well the losing of the shields was more for RP than anything else. ships cant pass through shields in Freelancer. So how would the fighters launch when you have your shields up?

What if you created one kind of 'carrier' class, like the Liberty carrier.

This ship would have maybe half the guns of a battleship, more armor, no shields, but capable of launching fighters.

I can see these be used a lot. and would love to see it.

I'm gonna bump this up again. And i also found this...
