Title: Friendly fighters "afraid" of preforming kamikaze attacks?!
Post by: Maksio58 on January 11, 2011, 11:47:43 am

Every time i try to use a friendly to prefrom a kamikazi attack they do the folowing things:

First they aproach the target and stop infront of it. Then they hit the afterburners while going for the targt but turn around in the last moment, get some distance and do the same thing again. They might eventualy hit the target but only if they dont turn around fast enaugh, not becouse they dont try to do it.

Is there any way to get around it? i already tried no dinamic goals and the target (an Orion) isnt even shooting back! Im guesing this has something to do with colision avoidance overiding the ships orders.

It works fine for larger ships though.

Enable kamikaze, set a waypoint right in side the ship you're kamikaze'ing, and have the ship follow waypoint path?

Thanks that did the trick. With an addition of a simple event i can even have them shoot until they get close.
