How to use missile barrage?

Post by eugene123 » Fri, 21. Jun 13, 04:52

I have an M7M Cobra stocked with Hammer Heavy Torpedoes and Flail Barrage Missiles. How exactly do I use the "missile barrage" functionality? I searched Controls and couldn't find any references on how to fire a barrage as opposed to just fire a missile.

Is it an OOS-only command? Everywhere there is talk about how awesome M7Ms are because of it, and I can't actually figure out how to use it!

I can fire the missiles one at a time fine.

It is an additional command slot, just like the Mosquito Missile Defense. Command Console (Shift-C) -> Additional Command Slots ... -> Missile Barrage ... -> Enter number of barrages
Then the ship fires missiles of the currently activated type from all turrets at once. How many missiles depends on the number of turrets and missile mounts, on a Cobra its 16, if I remember correctly (2x8).
No, I am NOT interested in sector charts! I want a taxi mission!
