I've got a little idea in my head...

Can you put the warpout ani as an impact explosion? That'd make a nice little effect... suited for what I have in mind.

Bobboau, wouldn't the ship look cooler if the knossosials interlocked when they rotated? One rotates clockwise, while the other rotates counter clockwise? Is that even possible? How did the Knossos do it?

Probably had one go faster than the other so it seemed like it went that way  

[edit] I checked, if you put a negetive rotation time, the peices interlock, would be cool on this ship  [/edit]

I rememebr that I think UA did that, with their black hole bomb...  hella deadly...

Yeah, my idea was to make a ship with missile launchers pointing up/down. Then make an invisible plane a bit under/over the ship. Then make a missile with the warpout ani as an impact ani and 0 damage, and when you launch that missile it strikes the invisible plane and explodes, giving the impression that it jumped into subspace to smack the sub  

[Snipes]

hm... good idea, but if the object is textured with invisible, then weapons will fly righ through them... it would be better to have the missiles have a very short life, so they blow up 1 sec after launch.

Hmmm.... that's a heck of a lot of offensive weaponry if you use the CapShip Turret Upgrade...

That's probably a better idea. My mind is WAY too complicated  

And no, they will only fly through it if the ship has the "no collide invisible" tag, IIRC.

Not only a nice design, but an excellent concept. Kudos.  

[Joey_21]

It's weapon loadout doesn't sound too bad. I wonder how long it'll take to bring down a Ravana?

well it depends, if there are several fighters TAGing it and targeting it with lazers and an AWACS to transpond all that targeting data into subspace, then it would probly take somewere in the vasenity of five minutes, if the ravans somehow found a neptune  and a direct conflict ensued, it would take about a minute for the ravana to rip it apart, but the ravana would probly be damaged by about 10-40% depending on how far away and if it jumped in in front or behind it. you must remember this isn't a super ship, it is smaller than a standard corvette, it relys on stealth and speed.
a mission it would be great for would be a raid n a cargo depot, it would nock out the capships from subspace then jump in and with fighter escort would begin pushing the cargo into subspace were they would travle to a predefind retreval zone, then submerge back to it's mysterius dark relm.

That reminds me... what ever happened to Dark Brood (is that the correct name?), Bobboau?

Which becomes even deadlier and more fun to dodge around with the updated speeds of the Velocity Mod...

Dark Breed, has died slowly, no one else on the team did anything and I posted an anoouncment on our inturnal forums about four months ago and have yet to hear a responce. I'm gona try restarting it after BWO with some help. the AC Malia was once a cruser to be seen in Dark Breed.
