Another concept - one I saw whilst mucking around with the Itano Circus mod.

Delay-on-firing for missiles and torps?

The actual firing for missiles in Itano means you see the missile drop from the ship, then activate its engines and fly away nearly a full second later.

COuld something like this be used to balance missiles/torps as it give CDs a chance to detonate them near the attacking ship?

Seems like that already happens. Every time I fire Paralyzer or Sunslayer, it takes like 1 second to actually fire off after the launching sound clip.

Hmm you are right. I always thought that was just lag - but it may well be that Itano simply uses a different animation for that delay-on-fire.

I wonder if that is due to a low acceleration factor on the missiles?

Lag maybe?:P
But seriously, I would not know, being a little to never explosive user.

I'm not sure either, but as it stands, I still get ordinances CDed while they're still right under me already. More delay, and it will be ridiculous.

It is lag yes

Well, that'll royally suck for all us laggers if there becomes more delay. :\

Yes, being shot up the arse by my own missile is not a pleasant sensation...

Your own missile won't hit you unless somebody CDs it.

Bump... A lot of talk has been about missiles: http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?sh...35785&st=20

Yes they burn like the good lord upon a witch. Perhaps cargo rquirements should be given another go?
