TUrret control against missiles fired at your target and ship

Post by Hellblazer » Sat, 30. Jun 12, 02:20

Does anyone knows if there's a script that enables the turrets to be set to defend a friendly target and your own ships from missiles.

Example, when you're doing an escort, you could assign your ships to protect that target, and automatically due to this script, the turret on your ships would not only protect your ships from missiles, but also the ship your ships is protecting.

Turrets will only protect the ship it is part of, but the misquito(sp) missile defense in the bonus pack will allow a single ship to defend multiple ships.

i have a question, it might be slightly off topic but is there a difference between the Missile Defense Mosquito (MDM) and the Missile Defense Mosquito (C) (MDM.C)

@ JackKiller2266: Yes, what kgkosio said.

MDM just protects the single ship running the command by firing Mosquito missiles at incoming missiles aimed at that specific ship.

MDM(C) - C = Convoy: Protects the convoy by firing at missiles incoming against any ships linked with (and including) the ship running MDM(C) through protect or follow ship commands (in either direction I believe). Hence one ship with the missiles and command can protect many.

It will be covered in the Bonus Pack documentation for those commands.
