Finding Cloaked Ships And Tmp Ships

posted on November 26th, 2003, 12:57 pm

I've asked multible times but optec dosent like to answer everyone with one post. He's got this fun way of making me guess and change everything slightly just enough so I get 1 step closer from hearing that what I asked origionally, even tho completly defferant from what I started out with, will be incorporated into this mod.
This seems to be easier for him. I mean I would love a straight answer from him if this thing isnt even possible and not debate its ethics in gameplay, BUT...thats just me

okay
TMP phasers: it's not sure yet if the old federation vessels will have phaser cannons or phaser arrays, perhaps they will (for example the miranda class or something )

Anti-Cloak Phaser: hm, i think it# snot possible to do with armada2, but i will think about it. If it is possible then it could perhaps be an alternative to the tachion scan. we will see

Well, it's the best I could have hoped for.

well this topic grew quick i'm not that keen on the grid i think only some ships should have the grid and possibely the phaser or maybe have some all ships have a tayacon but it's cost 2 engery per second to use it and have it so you only use it when u think there is a ship near by?!

Hmm, maybe doing away with the big tachyon thing at the base, and tweaking the venture, but put then have the sensor arrays still very good at detecting cloak?

I would like to have it so every chip can detect cloak but the cloaked ship has to come extremely close to one of your ships.

I think that if you do put the Anti-Cloak Phaser Burst (as I call it) in, that each ship in the game says something like Cloaked Ships Detected when they come within range of a cloaked ship, which hould be about half of the ships standard sensor range. Instead of researching tachyon grid, it can be cloak detecting sensors so the cloaked ship is targetable at point blank range, cloaked or not.

the thing is though all the voices in flops (by that i mean the computer souns ect not actor voices) are dojne by activision and i don't think they could get a fed computer voice saying that?! or could you?

I dunno but it would'nt have to be a voice. It could be a message that pops up on screen and shows which ship detects the cloaker on the mini map.

If old ships get put in as npr ships than like some one said maps are made with salvage yards in them. that would be intreesting, my opinion on the tachyon detection grid is to limit the range of it to less.

personally i think you should do this

keep the grid on Specialised sensor arrays also make it so the range is very short so unless the ships passes through a group of sensors it would not be detected i never liked the idea of the grid on ships as it ruins the whole point of romulans

Ive had an idea bout the cloak-detecting phaser spread, but purely an idea as yet - ill post progress on that when ive made some
