Hunting

Put this game down ohhh years ago, and picked it back up, even dusted off the Sidewinder and thought “Thar be treasure… with laser cannons!” unfortunatly my last experiance of this game was some time ago and well… never really gave it the time and thought i should have… so back to “Thar be treasure”… running from memory the last time i played this i found alot of those so called transports dont carry anything, i assume if its got the little cube cargo pods dotting its hull then its a target… if not it isn’t?

The main reason i put the game down was due to frustration not knowing what to hit, when to hit it and how. Im not a bad pilot IMHO, but if you dont know how to attack, chances are you are a dead man flying… or at least floating, possibly in bits, and that isnt much in the way of profitable.

So i guess it comes down to; No Pods no target?

Any help is appreciated and its nice to see an old game still supported

Another question… are there any mods out there that give a few more freighters to slap about before taking thier lunch money? if someone was in the process or starting such a mod, id happy to help with my meager 3D modeling skills.

Many Thanks
