ROC Civilian Bomber

[Hood]

I fly a ROC civilian bomber and it looks ok from my perspective but 2 pilots just pointed out that to them it looks like the order bomber??

First, that wasn't a question.

Second, this isn't a bug, so you probably should have placed it in another forum.
Maybe it should go in "general discussion" or most likely "flood."

Third, It doesn't really look like a Roc, unless you're going by colour. Perhaps the width of the fighter and maybe its fin could make it appear to look like the Order Bomber to an untrained eye - but the engines are different, the cockpit is different, the wings are a reverse "v" and not a delta like the Order bomber, and the tailfin points the wrong way. The engines are really the main thing. They don't look like Order engines.

Really, what the other players are saying is fairly unfounded, and you shouldn't give them any heed or even worry about it.

As long as your tag and ID are whatever they are, you don't need to worry if a few people think your ship looks like something.

Hope that clears things up.

No tail.
Well, I'll be darned.



That said, I don't really see where people say it looks like the Order Bomber.
Same sort of color, maybe... but that's about it.

Hmm.

Again, though - it's your tag that really matters, and then your ID, and then your ship.

Sprolf, that's the Sekhmet (I think) model being displayed for the Roc. The actual Roc model and Order models are reasonably distinct, but it's displaying the wrong one.

I remember that the Roc used to morph into a Bumblebee... this at least is a little closer, but I wonder if there's an issue with the ship coding somewhere. Definitely something to check out.

Ah.



I'm not exactly sure how I missed that...
I'm not going to try to figure it out or justify that. I'm just clueless as to how I could miss that.




Er.... in this case, I'll concede the point.
Also, it does belong in this forum.

Also, I'll shut up now.

this is know bug and we know what is causing it...it will be fixed if one of the small updates...

Err, stupid questions, are bombers that big in comparison to fighters nowadays? Or am I just blind & failing because I haven't played FL for months? o.O

Well, that is the Griffin LF next to it... but it's mostly a matter of camera position.
