BrightBritches Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Alright, after a lot of flying by the seat of my pants, my private defense fleet has arrived in orbit around Ike The fleet consists of 2 gunship drones, the Guppy and the Sardine. Also accompanying them is a destroyer, the Swordfish, commanded by none other than the legendary Jebediah Kerman. The first combat experience for both ship classes, much will be learned from the outcome of the engagement.We are patiently awaiting the arrival of the fleet of camulus777 and will protect our interests at all costs.

BrightBritches Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 ...um you do know hyperedit is allowed right...yeah, but i like to prove to myself at least that the ships can get there plus it just adds flight experience for next time, as evidenced by the fact that one of the gunships used about half as much fuel getting into orbit as the other and if it gets to be too much of a hassle, i'll fly each ship class there once and then i'll hyperedit to save time.

camulus777 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Ok just got home i am looking at the battle now. Just saw Ender's Game witch was AMAZING! Probably one of the best movies of the year for me. I was such a big fan of the book and they did just what they should have. If you have not seen it or read the book go get a copy and then see the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camulus777 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Hey Bright I think the files you sent me might have some problem because every time i kill your swordfish with a missile and then try to focus on anything near it the game crashes. I tried restarting the game, my computer, even tried setting up again. Once i get near the ship the command pod comes off and the game crashes. My PC can usualy handle like 2000 parts without a problem and your ship is only 430 or so. I'm not quite sure whats going on but if you want to reset or just not select it let me know.Here are the screens.Moved my Strike force into position over Ike at 800kmRed I, Red II, a corvette, and a missile destroyer.Red I Moved into position.Fired two missiles, one direct hit to the command section only superficial damage (the back cone came off), the second strike took out the command center separating it from the rest of the ship and leaving the craft dead in the water. (your jeb's ok though)Then the craft flew back into a wide orbit over IkeHere is the Persist fileI don't know if you can view the ship its self but every time i try it crashes. If you want you can remove it from the game to avoid crashing if it causes problems.Your go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightBritches Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 @camulus777 well that's weird but ill look into it when I get on later today. Glad to hear Jeb is okay, but there is also another probe core on the ship that is used to navigate, so it might not be dead just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) I saw the second core i however was unable to attack it with the rest of my missiles because it kept crashing. I also didn't know if the secondary core was allowed.Just to let you know I eat grammar Nazis for breakfast lol. Jk you should hear my psychological profile of math teachers vs English teachers. It was a paper i did in college for my jr year capstone. Why Some Math Teachers are Hippies and Why Some English Teachers are Dictators. Math never changes as far as structure and proof, sure there are some new discoveries but those are just puzzles in the universe to be solved rather than be warped by human opinion. Language changes with a matter of decades, slang is created poisoning speech and writ, and spell-check does not help because it has made many of us indifferent to re reading what we write. So not all but man English professors view themselves as the stalwart defenders of words and context. Every infraction and bad habit to be nipped in the bud and destroyed to defend against an unstoppable enemy. Math teachers on the other hand or at least man of the ones I had interviewed (125 in total across 21 universities) tend to be more laid back. Math defends its self. Opinion does not change it, time does not weigh it down, and the mixing of culture does not warp it. Nothing to preserve, then there is nothing to defend.I grew dyslexic and took most of my time in grade school teaching my self how to overcome a very annoying disability. What made matters worse is I had a second grade teacher that would punish me severely for being unable to read the board allowed. We found out i needed glasses and I began to correct the problem through hard work and reading a lot. My spelling still suffer though especially when dealing with homophones. Marley a product of being taught in school to simply sound out a word in order to spell it rather than visualize the word as an object.My point is if I make spelling mistakes this is why. I am far from perfect. Edited November 22, 2013 by camulus777 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also didn't know if the secondary core was allowed.If it isn't allowed then I'll consider it dead, I just thought it would be fine seeing as how zekes always puts like 10 in his ships lol. Seems like if it has thrust is has a probe core with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 i didn't say it wasn't that's up to spartwo. It's your starting core that is your main core so if your mane core is alive then it still flies. I just hope we don't have the problem of not being able to get near it.@Briansun1 what space stuff they did wrong? In Ender's game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briansun1 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 the space station being in the wrong orientation in different sences... and burning "down" at the planet...(wait... did the movie just reference itself?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tegu Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I hope its allowed, cause all of my designs have at least 10 cores... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) Burning down to a planet is very possible if gravity is canceled out or if you burn fast enough, in fact it would tactically be the best way to go so that the smaller ships would have to fight orbital inertia to keep up and maneuver, and space stations can often change orientation to suit their needs. Also compared to every other cifi movie it was more space mined than most. Star Trek is all wrong, especially the new one, Star wars is even less grounded in reality, and even my favorite Babylon 5 ends up being less than correct. The omega class destroyer has a large spinning centrifuge in the center to simulate gravity but by spinning it would cause the ship to list to one side and they don't. All in all I think that it was planned out better than most.Wish we didn't have to go in order of smallest to largest. I have yet to use some of the larger ships in my fleet cause they are the first to be targeted. lol Edited November 22, 2013 by camulus777 add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
