OTA fighter dancing.

Post by Gota »

Is there a way to make fighters act like in OTA?
They should be able to turn very sharply yet when are targeting a unit should not,cause of the fact the turn so fast,clinge to it but rather do flybys.

I have taken fighters Upped their maxrudder tag which made them turn like in OTA the problem is that whe nthey are told to manually attack a target they just move real close to it since they dont need space to turn the the target.

IS there a way through tags,lua,unit cripting or just some crazy hackery to make this thing work?

_maybe_ with some wicked movectrl hackery. engine itself won't support something like this, the current code is complex enough and what you're describing sounds like a bug-turned-into-a-feature - we don't want those in the core tbh.

Make the whole plane a turret , gives similar effect.

If you dont know what I mean look at the hovers in NOTA.
