NPC Ships - Elrainn - 03-29-2010
Well, many factions have been given there own shiplines since Vanilla, like the GC, GMG, Lane Hackers and Red Hessians to name a few. Well I'm starting to get tired of seeing GC NPC's in Starfliers and Hawks, and Red Hessian NPC's in Sabres and Stilleto's, wouldn't it be possible to set NPC's to use their respective ship lines instead of the old Vanilla ships? If so I'd really like to see this implemented in 4.86

Now before I say anything let me say I know next to nothing about modding so I could be totally wrong, BUT I believe to do that you would need the Freelancer source code which we dont and probably will never have.

But, don't the Gallic NPC's have there own ships? If you could give them there own ships shouldn't you be able to do it with Standard NPC's?

' Wrote:But, don't the Gallic NPC's have there own ships? If you could give them there own ships shouldn't you be able to do it with Standard NPC's?But those are add-ons. What you're talking about is editing. Im not sure if there is a difference but Im pretty sure there is.

It's do able in theory, and i would like to see this happen, unfortunately it would throw the NPC's somewhat out of balance and turn everyplace into gallia, unless you want to make NPC versions of all those ships so basically there are two of every ship in the game. I dont know about the feasibility of this.

Not really, it can be controlled by what guns the NPCs are using.

' Wrote:Not really, it can be controlled by what guns the NPCs are using.Mmmm, In some sense, still, some of the player only ships have some awfully high armor. Not being a very knowledgeable on this I will refrain from saying any more.

Dab is doing a lot of work on this for 4.86, I believe.
You should be seeing custom ships around then.

I know that in some cases, factions with new disco ships actually use them. When I was repping a new character against the Hessians, I occasionally fought Odins, I think, as well as the usual sabres, stilletos, etc.

Some of the new systems have new patrols - see Omega 47 for Hessians with Lokis and such.
