_angus_ 2 Posted November 6, 2012 Sorry if this is a stupid question, I suspect it is... but how do I change weapons in a Manta, eg from rockets to machine guns - I can't seem to find it in the manual. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

disorder 1 Posted November 10, 2012 Yeah its annoying too, so many hidden things. The same wheel changes weapons on the carrier (deck gun <> anti air) Did you know you can also hold shift down to get waypoints. It also allows you to assist and dock if you hold shift and hover over other units or the carrier respectively. You can make a patrol waypoint with the unit docking when done.

_angus_ 2 Posted November 11, 2012 Thanks, I had no idea. I will investigate. I'm not really clear on how the carrier fuel system works fully. I just keep ordering those fuel containers, right? The thing is I keep wanting to move my stockpile island, but I'm unclear if the option is available. Finally, I like to have full control of my units when I want it. Is there a way of getting the Walruses to reliably hold a position, without saying "tally-ho, chaps!" and dashing off to attack when an enemy appears? This may just be my like of understanding with the controls. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will get the info panel, click on the wrench icon on the left side of the info panel. Change the type by pressing a button. The stockpile is also a factory type, so you can have it set to defense for a stronger island. The units should stay where you put them unless they get fired at, then they have a small amount of movement. You can click suspend button to stop them completely and make sure they are on defensive by bringing up the radial action menu. If set to aggressive they tend to have minds of their own. Fuel gives 1 bar, fuel packs give 5 bars your total fuel is about 20 bars or 4 packs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
