And there my problem
When the Turret fire on a Ravana destroy the turret it.
But when the turret fire on a Sathanas then became the Sathanas damage and at 75 % end it the turret fire again on it but the Sathanas lost no Hitpoints.

Can anyone help me ?

Thank you so much for using the code brackets.

I'll give it a test and see what happens.  Just to question things here, but have you guys tried anything other than the Sathanas and a Ravana?  Maybe an Orion?  The Colossus?  Etc?

Law Enforcer - what the hell are you going on about?

[phreak]

try adding the "supercap" flag to the weapon, otherwise it stops at 75% strength

What you said just souned funny to me... I know, im weird:p

What never heard about that..... Supercap? thought that was a ships.tbl flag?????

is there somewhere where all the flags are explained?

[karajorma]

GE has most of them in the part of the FAQ he did for me. But I didn`t spot the supercap one in there.

[phreak]

supercap is a weapons flag

check the helios

Strange...I tried the entry and it definately did not kill the Sathanas.  A Lucifer went down in a couple of minutes but the Sathanas would hold steady at the aformentioned 75%.  It seems like the supercap tag is the cause for this...only bombs and beam weapons seem to be able to break it.

little known fact
"big damage" is to "huge"
as
"supercap" is to... "supercap"
yes, "supercap" is both a ship flag and a weapon flag

OK thanks guys for the helping.

EDIT: It works fine with the "supercap" flag.
