rankup issue

posted on November 15th, 2011, 4:17 am

I added the Viscount-class Star Defender today but when i made the rank files it crashes when it ranks up to level2. I can't figure out whats wrong I've gone over the ODF multiple times and I can't find anything. Can some one look at this and see if i missed something. I know it not weapons or hardpoints, you'll see all the weapon hardpoints are in order. If someone could help me out that would be great.

I've solved the Rank2 Problem, for some reason i can't have two fighter weapons on it. but the weird thing is every rank after 2 has three, four, five, six fighter weapons. Also is it possible to make independently targeting weapons? Not multiple targeting weapons (one phaser shooting more than one target) i'm talking a target on port and a target on starboard and two different weapons shooting them both.

It's possible to make weapons that target different units separately of one another, but the targeting will not be under your control

How would you do that? I assume it has to do with Firing arcs. I tried giving my Viscount weapons tight firing arcs but the hardpoints are all facing forward.

Again, wise to check out the appropriate pages on the guide
CannonImp - The Hitchhiker's Guide to Fleet Operations

Some of the commands you may be interested in are
useprimarytarget = 0
targetloop = 1
