Title: How to limit ship speeds
Post by: Redstreblo on February 05, 2012, 01:22:06 pm

How do you set up a convoy of different ships and have the faster ships travel at a lower max speed (to match the max speed of the slowest ship)?

Thank you, I just could not remember how to do it.

Whenever I use that the AI tends to ignore the cap speed SEXP and power on.

it seems to be working fine for me Cobra, so long as the ship is in game at the time the SEXP activates. If your ship warps in and continues at the max speed you set:

When: has arrived delay - (ship in question) ---- delay - time in seconds --- Cap waypoint speed - max speed

Well yeah, I've FREDed enough mission before to know that. :P Maybe it was some AI thing that got fixed and I never noticed.
