Ballistics (missiles/mines/etc)

[mjolnir]

I know... problem is how to do this without making them uber 1vs1.

Improving current level 9/10 missiles will do that.

If you add speed they will be simply too fast/good when fired with thruster.


What about making new missile with some 1500 damage (firestalker has 2400), but some 200 speed a better tracking?

With some balancing it can be made to be "support missile" in larger fights (like shooting guns(or thruster) off a bomber that is attacking the capship you are defending).

1vs1 it will still be better to go for the Cannonball and in mixed scenarios with Firestalker/Sidewinder.


--------------------------
Another thing that I noticed in FLstat is:

Seeker forward degree

From the name it seems it's the angle where the missiles "sees" target.

All normal missiles have 35

CDs have 90 - 135

This value could definitely be increased a bit.
