  1. Western norway here, a few weeks ago we had an entire week of extremely heavy rain with sun poking through the clouds, completely broken cloudcover yet thick rain. Freak weather happens on any planet.

    What I have noticed though is that there is no tidal system. Tides on the earth are caused by the moon but Gaea IS a moon. You'd expect that gigantic rock in the sky to have some impact.


  2. New type of station?

    Defense, Mining, Industry, Research. Creates Research Points that fuels current research project. 800 points for laser, 500 for armor mk1, 2000 for armor mk2, etc. Changed projects store their points to be continued later.

    This would make for a huuuge mod, perhaps something for BI to put in an expansion? *wink, wink*


  3. Whats the thing with steam workshop? It looks like another dl site for mods and nothing else for me. So what is for you that you want that? And oh shit arma don't have it and look how big the mods are for it ;)

    Oh shit streamlined sorting of mods, suscriptions auto-update, favourites for beta mods in progress you don't want to install yet and mouseover popups describing mods in the Steam interface.


  4. Torpedo and a shield with no armor

    Go in low and fast from the rear of the enemy carrier. Once you've reached the wake, release and turn around. The carrier should be dead in the water allowing you to peck it off from a distance or make surgical strikes to take out its guns.

    If it has flak you may want to take out the two rear turrets before sending in the manta with the torpedo.


  5. I send them in pairs with a distance between them, controlling the second first walrus

    6

    7

    8

    9

    Where I would control 7. If 6 has a seizure I'd be able to switch and untangle before the column grinds to a halt and if 6 and 7 is engaged 8 and 9 usually catches up and joins in.

    And on a related note - the Carrier thinks it's a good idea to fire at enemy Mantas with the fore-mounted plasma cannon. Resulted in my Walruses taking (un)friendly fire. :D

    Mine tried using shells.

    I didn't really know what to say


  6. Whats the command to pick a walrus up using the manta and hook? tried everything i can and no luck.

    any info greatly appreciated.[/QUOte]

    Control the Manta and position it directly above the Walrus, hit F when prompted to hook on, again to hook off. Once the Walrus is hooked the Manta can still execute orders like move or attack.

    Note that equipment on both the Manta and Walrus will slow it down and can considerably increase fuel use.
