If it'll be stealth, make it darker... Cause even Petrarch would be able to see that thing.

Cool. But looks high-poly. And I think 7m is a bit big- should be hard to spot, no?

And the color is fine. The Terran Pegasus is hard to spot, but it's even brighter.

Probably the best thing would just be a 3m box, which explodes when the target is say 50m aweay. But yours is very cool.

DEBRIS don't be silly, It's a mine.

I think with detail distances set right the FS2 engine could cope with quite a few of these as a myrmidon is about 500 faces + shield + thruster flames.

perhaps 7m is a bit big. It's just I have been having such a hard time hitting my Scarab Drones that are 5m long. Hmmm ... they are only 3m wide and 2m thick though.
