AI Group number by ship rating

[peki1990]

Hi all i just want to say that this is best game ever made

I want to suggest to make pirates in group appear deapending on ship rating. Im basicly talking about player made ship used by AI.

For example if ship rating is 1 (fighter or whatever) then it will spawn 10 pirates with ship rating 1 (fighter or whatever) in a group. if ship rating is 10 ( battlecruser or star destroer or some very big and powerfull ship) then it will spawn 1 pirate with ship ratin 10 in a group. it will be a lot easier to fight your own creation.

^.. Schema doesn\'t rate vessels. What rating are you talking about?

the ability to set up \"different classes\" would be interesting.
i dont want to give pirates a \"cruiser\" if they spawn the thing in huge masses like fighters
not to mention a pirate capital...

I\'d rather have no idea what I\'m facing, and then... face it.



...Because they\'re pirates. If you want to fight a cruiser, enable your cruiser in permissions and disable everything else. The same goes for everything else. This seems very unnecessary.

its not complicated is very simple, Maybe i want to fight 1 on 1 with pirate cruser.

And yes Vessels have rating in catalog from 1 to 10.

Like LazerusKI said you dont want to give pirates a cruser if they spawn the thing in huge masses like fighters.

yup, a \"rating\" or \"class\" system would be helpfull.
set a ship as \"capital\" and you will rarely see it, maybe only in special sectors
set a ship as \"cruiser\" and you will see one in a huge fight
\"fighters\" are the most common ship, combined with a few \"bombers\"
and maybe even more

Yes if you set a fighter rating to 1 it witll spawn 10 of them in a mob group, set bomber rating to 2 and it will spawn 9 of them in a group and so on bigger the rating smaler the group. if you want to fight 3 captial ship then set them rating of 8.
