... countermeasures and trim? Now that the game contains missiles and you are able to fight with and fight against them, I feel like we should have chaffs and flares to counter incoming missiles if we choose. I know that you can out turn and out run missiles sometimes. But that doesn't negate the fact that appropriate countermeasures should be added. They would definitely help make for some more dynamic dogfights and attacks on enemy ships.
And there should be an option to allow for vtol input and action group assignment to wing control surfaces so that we can use them for trim. I think that would be an effective yet simple way to address the absence of trim as is in the current version.
Devs, please consider these things when deciding on content for future updates.
What do you guys think?
Lol way overdue
Ya, we need this
@TheLatentImage Yeah. Maybe Something like a detacher. It holds tons of blocks. It would release them and the missile Hits one of the blocks exploding.
@SimpleTechAndResearch Sure, but that doesn't mean that we still shouldn't have flares to go along with the missles.
You can shoot them
@ValtsuAircraftIndustries They do that irl.
True, there should also be some sort of stability system, like Kerbal Space Program
@goboygo1 Well, I've seen the AI dodge missiles, but they were more by chance than actually doing maneuvers to evade them. And even with my Morgan(which is very maneuverable for an aircraft as large and heavy as it is), dodging missiles is a challenge in and of itself. In the end, it's better to try and outrun the missiles range than it is to try dodging them, which is usually futile from my observations(at least from the limited time I've spent doing it.). There is some exceptions, but they aren't the rule.
@NovaTopaz i have dodged missiles before...
That works, but only if you have guns.... Or only if you can point them backwards @goboygo1
and even maneavible aircraft can't dodge the missiles...
@PlanesOfOld have you tried shooting incoming missiles with machine guns?
I'd build a big high wing bomber, with flares.
And in anything large or not that maneuverable or slow you are completely screwed if someone fires a missile at you, you just have to bend over, grab your ankles and kiss your arse goodbye....
iv had it working for a while but I cant start production on it until my main computer is ready
lol im working on a mod for this iv got the basic test script
Vtol on control surfaces would allow for flaps too
@Mod
#trimislife + #flaressavelives#implies#flaressavetrims#logicI love this!! PLEASE Add these!!! The trim would help me sooo much and the countermeasures would make dogfights so much more interesting!!
@TheLatentImage Forgive my saying so but you look like Jeff Bridges.
I'm not insulting anyone I'm just being salty @Thefalloutplayr
Watch what you say your on a moderators thread (oo) he might be watching!@JacobHardy64
We need a damn turn coordinator so bad. I keep asking @Thefalloutplayr
Yes
@AgDynamics Woah, is that a picture of me?
