retribution missile

retribution missile (class 1 ship)


this missile has an extremely powerful antimatter warhead, capable of punching through any armour in the known universe. however, its advanced target acquisition systems are incapable of targeting ships the normal way; instead they lock on to any energy signature coming from an enemy ship.

this missile acts in all classes, and kills the first enemy ship to use a special ability.

There was no modifier for this ship, so couldn't add it. It is meant to kill the first ship to use ANY special. It could be an interceptor, it could be a major reconstructor.

Mp should be zero.

I didn't get any replies back then, maybe it'll go better this time...

Here is the bomber that launches this thing: http://forum.spacetrace.com/viewtopic.php?topic=3209&forum=26

Check the earlier post, the bomber that fires this is 20 mp. This is just the missile, it should be 0 mp.

just read it but still if you gonna use it you use it against class 3 fleets and than the 20 mp for the launcer is okay i guess
course defending the strong ship with a small class 2 wil work against it

I think that it must be 0 mp, because it makes no sense. Which bonehead would sit in a rocket that has remote control?!?!?

[Spyder]

You need to add all the triggers necessary. The mp must be higher, the closest example is the evaporator, which kills a ship if its modifies + - or destroy I think.

Example f|trigger_0_rec I dont know how this particular trigger would work, you will have to do it again I am afraid.

[Jort]

No, it must be 0 mp

[Elder]

Yep, the ship must have mp, not the missile itself.

PS: This really is a great game. Looking forward to be pro soon
