The Unification War / Re: Target monitor
« Last post by Novachen on April 17, 2024, 12:54:41 pm »Always had the impression that any limited HUD gauge in the Unification War is actually a feature to show the technical advancements in-universe.
So that ships simple does not have a Target Monitor then...
My guess at least.

FreeSpace Discussion / Re: Ordering support ship to repair and rearm wingmen?
« Last post by Novachen on April 17, 2024, 12:38:57 pm »In the normal game it is only possible with cheat codes.
so www.freespace2.com and ~+R on the target.
Saved me many restarts of missions, when mission critical ships were disabled by accident.
There are very few mods which add a "Rearm/Repair my target" order in the comm menu for the support ship. But i ever saw that only in one or two occasions.

Friendlies call for rearm when their missiles are depleted anyway, you can't see how many missiles they've got left. On the repair side, subsystems are self repairing if not completely destroyed, and a friendly fighter that's taken so much damage that it's lost a subsystem altogether will probably be dead before the support ship gets to it.

FreeSpace Discussion / Ordering support ship to repair and rearm wingmen?
« Last post by Iain Baker on April 17, 2024, 05:05:32 am »Hi there. Is there a way to instruct a support ship to repair and rearm a specific fighter/bomber? And if not - can I feature request this please, and if so how?
I ask as I was playtesting the other night and several of my wingmen had taken some damage, and one was below 10% hull. I got them to follow me to a safe area and called in the support ship. What does it do? Goes to the craft with say 95% hull first and only fixes the ‘10% hull and on fire’ fighter last - after repairing about four other only slightly damaged fighters. 😂 Grrrr…
A ‘rearm my target’ option on the comms menu would be ideal, especially if issuing the order pushes the craft to the head of the queue.

Thanks for the patience. With the poll, you decided you wanted squadron patches, and though it took a while, what better way to begin than with the 53rd Hammerheads!
This is a 3 inch (2.54cm) circular velcro patch in military style.

The Unification War / Target monitor
« Last post by Kane Kaizer on April 16, 2024, 07:24:13 pm »I'm honestly amazed that this campaign is apparently still being worked on. But in the latest version, 2.0.2, I can't seem to use the target monitor box in the lower left corner of the screen. Is this supposed to happen or do I need to do something? It's kind of awkward to play without it.
Also, sometimes I can target ships on my escort list but I can't actually see the escort list. Not sure what that's about.

« Last post by Kane Kaizer on April 16, 2024, 07:12:04 pm »Playing 4.7.1 and for some reason I can't figure out how to enable the ship radar icons instead of the little blips. I remember being able to do it years ago but for the life of me can't seem to remember how I did it anymore.
