Reason for the capital ships not taking missile damage is the fact that missile damage is an explosion damage and not a hit damage like guns would cause. Guns do damage directly to the sur of a ship while missiles generate an exlosion with a certain radius that does damage to hardpoints of the ship. Capital ships are of course very big and the hardpoints are not as close together as on fighters. so it might happen that the explosion radius is not big enough to reach the hardpoint which should take the damage.
This is a fixable matter but not without serious side effects. The only way to fix it is to create very large explosions with large radius which can reach those hardpoints. Problem with that is that all objects in this area take damage and probably would take out all other pilots in that area.

I guess we better live with the gunfire only on those ships.

From what i've seen so far it seems the Ancients cant be damaged by Missile or Sunslayer Torps, i scored 5 direct hits with 3 firestalkers and 2 sunslayers, with his sheild down, he was still flying around i swear i could see the little enemy pilot smiling at me too through his tinted cockpit glass!!.

I got a baseball bat u could hit him with ..lol

Admin did it work? can you take my char back to Utopia?

kusari dest - turret view camera should be little further away from the ship (in order to check the holo and for better attack view)

and thx for the holo :-))))) looks crazy !!

class 9 guns hardpoints on the Basilisk coalition ship are both at the same spot.

@ OP, I have tested color blind option with several different hu and particle color combinations...glad to report.....color blind option works perfectly

2. in Dervon I had no problems to fire missiles at ancient drones (they were taking normal damage)

Just tested and can confirm. Missiles do normal damage to ancients shield and hull.

Well, after OP got kicked by cheating detection, the server got on red lag, and now the server is stuck, with few people in it

And I have cool screenies with OPgetting kicked from the server, heh xD

bug: Osiris has a cruise speed od 550

about kusary: i know its tricky to use turret view + holo, but in this case i really dont mind about the holoprojector appearence in turret view. i suggested to put the focal point little furter away from the ship, because its hard to use turret view while fighting (makes its pretty hard to target the enemies)

Well, that's what I thought, as I saw you logging off, but I didn't remembered to see you logging on. But watching this... maybe you discover the reason of the weird crash if it wasn't meant to be so.

I was using low performances on this 1.81 to be sure Idon't bug somehing... or myself heh.

here is what I saw, after a minute the server went down in crazy lag:

PS: Seems the forum resized this image too, open it in new window for a full watch.
PS2: Those words you see there I typed a minute ago, and appeared all at once, as normal for this type of crash.
