 Id like to see the Worker bee from the Collossus cut scenes made for FS2.  Its cool, it looks like a bulky upside down larger manticore fighter thats yellow instead of red.  Can some one post a pic of it up, i dont have any tools here at school for it.  In the cutscene it shoots a welding beam, this would be cool in game because Venom was talking about adding negative numbers to the weapons.tbl that would make these cannons heal.  What an awesome new idea would be to have a repair ship in game without the need of ugly SExps.  Maybe add a modified attack wielding cannon.  Would anyone like to make this??

The main problem with the welding beam idea is the games AI.
Only enemy craft will fire on a ship.
so you would have to make the worker bee hostile IFF. Then the ship it was repairing would shoot it out of the sky.

You could fix these problems with Sexps but that kinda defeats the purpose on not healing the ship with sexps in the first place.

 Maybe we can just use it for mining operations or for space pirates

Yeah, the healing of ships whould have to be done with SEXPs, but to have a ship shooting beams doing the healing, that would be cool to see.  

And if not, it would still be cool to have for background ambiance (like Ganymede stations and other things with no purpose to the mission but still look cool flying around).

 Would some one watch the Collosus cutscenes and post a picture about this thing for me please??  I dont have the stuff to do it (ie psp).  Its the yellow fighter size thing with the cutting beams!

Please??

you don't need psp, just push printscreen, the screen cap will be saved in the fs2 folder.

Don't think it works with MVEs, but there is, I believe, a video capture of the drones, in the screenshots in the credits section.

(I think VP files -> interface, crimxx.pcx)

Not true, I've made a freindly fire on a freindly.
