Airpower Vehicles (Predator, Reaper, Karma Drop Ship)
Posted: Wed Aug 11, 2021 12:53 pm
So Snarf and I were discussing fixing the Karma Drop ship:
Which was broken when playing on the server. Snarf says he's very close to fixing this...woo hoo! We can drop the mino wherever we want. I don't think it will lift MAS (Levi/Tiamat/Kraken/Pallas) which is fine IMO.
This is par to the Airpower (APVERIV.u) package https://unrealarchive.org/mutators/unre ... bc64a.html
which includes everyone's favorite flyer the Predator helicopter and the Reaper Helicopter.
So lets discuss some proposed changes to those:
1. Predator - lower the damage of the plasma main weapon. Reduce range/radar Hud so you can't sit out of sight and mindlessly spam. I think removing the radar would probably do it..you can mindless spam at nothing if you want..gives away your positon.
2. Reaper - same for Range, and get the Stealth (invisible like Stealth badger) mode working on the server.
I also want to look at the Avril MKII as compared to the Battery Launcher. We've got the Bender MkII on Shyron btw. I don't think the other fighters in that package are really usable on typical maps -- they are like the spacefighters.
