[quote=”Chessking” post=20510]
However, if the game is indeed like my disk version, players may encounter a problem on the mission where you have to evacuate workers from a station that has been set to self destruct. Often times, when heading to the station, your wingman will never arrive at its destination, making it difficult to fend off the enemies. I have never beaten this mission on the disk version, and have not gotten that far on my GOG version to see if the bug persists, so I can’t tell you more. It should be beatable even with the bug, but you will have to restart the level many times just to get your wingman’s help, and many more to actually complete the objective.[/quote]
BEAT IT THIRD TRY AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! 👿Sorry, I have a cold that’s affecting my brain. I’m really really strange this week, and felt like some “bragging.” :silly:

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂[quote=”Chessking” post=20510]

Kewl! If you wanna get rekt at some point, hit me with a PM and I’ll fix up my game install to work on the multiplayer server here, then we can have some 1v1. But again, only if you’re a masochist. :V–IronDuke

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂Did I seriously not check the forums for five days? :blink: I don’t normally miss stuff… then again, this week has been overwhelmingly busy.
Skimmed yer wall o’ text, and that plan sounds solid, I guess… I’m a gameplay coder, not a website coder. 😛 But what glimmers I do understand sound smart, so they must be good.

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂Good news: Someone else is doing the exact same thing with X-Wing! 😆 Not only that, they’re using Unity just like I am, and are adding a requirement for owning a legit copy of the original before their remake works. (Although they’re calling it a remaster – what the heck is the difference? XD ) Here’s a link if you want to know more:
Linky linkyAs for my own development, I got hit with an LDSi missile in the form of holidays, school, and other winter festivities/pains. 🙁 Fortunately, I did manage to not only clean up the comsec model, I got it flying. :cheer: Works with all 6 DoF, and you can bind the controls to any combination of controllers. No flight assist as yet, so if you accelerate in a direction, you keep drifting, and if you start to rotate, you keep rotating until you manually correct it. Hilarious fun though, just zipping around a checkerboarded derpy pseudo-terrain I threw in. Oh, and it can be affected by gravity, and I have a localized gravity script from another project that I’ll be throwing in, so that instead of being simply a universal downwards force, gravity can pull objects toward a specific location, AND the force of the gravity falls off correctly with distance. :cheer: This means you will be pulled towards planets, so stations and ships having actual orbits is going to be important. I just hope I didn’t bite off more than I can chew with this one; keeping a whole system properly orbiting, yet have active gravity is always hard.
What I plan on doing next is copy-pasting a damage model with basic projectile, beam, and missile weaponry into the game from another project – it’s not the fancy thing I’d dreamed up with Chessking’s help, but I love placeholders. :V Besides, I think it best to replicate the original game’s story to a T before actually improving anything, to ensure that I keep to the original vision of the game. Plus it’s a good idea to just get something done and completed.Hope the rest of you had a Merry Christmas, and I wish you all a happy New Year! I plan on doing much more work on this project in January, since the new year is always a good time to start off anew. B)
Edited since the link doesn’t work if I don’t say linky linky. :p

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂Alpha heatsink is insufficient for the tug, and the beta heatsink becomes insufficient if you put a lot of quad-lite PBCs on there, so the ship comes with a gamma heatsink. However, it does not come with an autorepair 2. The version it comes with is number 1, and you get number 2 in the trade screen (genuine plot spoiler)
[spoiler]after stealing the turret fighters.[/spoiler]
They may not seem like improvements, but the various heatsinks and autorepairs are quite steeply better, as well as quite a lot more expensive. Getting the autorepair class 5, for example, is very expensive.You know, I think I’ll create an account on Space Sim Central so I can answer any I-War2 related questions people may have there too, since it’s bigger than here.

I don’t drink anyway. 😛 Although… if you’re serious about that form of appreciation, I may call in a favor one day… :whistle:–IronDuke
