Weapons

I'm sure this has been asked numerous times, but since I don't feel like walking over piles of ancient turds threads, i'll just ask it right now: Will support for more than two primary banks and more than 3 secondary banks be added?

Nope, it won't be added. Hard to add something that's already there.

It is?  :wtf: Then how come not one ship or mod so far has implemented it, and for that matter, how do you?

Play Wing Commander Saga and find out.
If I agreed with you, we would both be wrong

Just be warned that they don't work correctly on the client side in multi.

I actually tried flying the seraphim a while ago.  The primary banks worked fine, but the secondaries didn't cycle correctly.  I'll have to check this out with a newer build...

Heck you can't even get into the loadout screen for a dogfight if you have 3 primaries.  You can bypass that with a red-alert / scramble but then the client sees the host firing the wrong weapon and other weird things happen.  Coop is a little more forgiving and you can actually load out and play.

The FringeSpace staff asked about this some time ago and the best we got was that
it was a WIP. Least for how we were trying to get it to work...

Report issues to Mantis (unless it was already there)... That is if you really want to get them fixed. Otherwise it requires a healthy dose of dumb luck to get a coder to fix the problems.
Do not meddle in the affairs of coders for they are soggy and hard to light

I asked about reporting it but never got an answer as to weather it was TBP specific or not.  I'll get those couple in there as soon as I find that thread.

Now that's VERY strange. They should be going through the same code.

Maybe it's the same code but dogfight uses different allowable weapons.  Maybe the code was never updated for dogfight primaries and secondaries.
