::: HELP: Answers needed :::

Ive got a few answers that need answering, thanks:
1. How do you get battleship kill missions? ~ Ive searched the forums but can only find people asking how.
2. How can i make it so you can have more than 1 engine/powerplant?

I need answers if Serious Sirius 1.5 is to come out in the near future.

Killing Outcasts IS my hobby.

Hey,

On the battleship kill, you have to get a mod like Rebalance, or you have to learn how to do it yourself, I think there was a section in the tutorial area that explained how to do it.

On the powerplant thing, that all done when you're constructing a ship, and once it's built you can't really change it. You could amp up te speed, by editing the individual engine statistics, there's a tutorial on doing that too.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, but im trying to make engine upgrades (an extra engine that increases speed) and Cruiser/Gunboat/Battleship Kill missions. Could you point me in the right direction please?

Ive found how to add cap kill missions on the ringworld development thread. Thanx everyone!

Now for adding more than one engine. I don't want another trail, I just want something you can add on to inprove speed.

hey blaze,

remember that actually having 2 engines on your ship causes the "warp speed bug" where hitting engine kill propells you to 999 while letting you slide /turn.

its fun in open space but if your used to using engine kill in dogfighting it'll seriously stuff you up - and dont play with it in an asteroid field unless you really, REALLY like pinball

youd probably be better just making a more powerfull engine or finding a tutorial on how you implement the upgrade stuff ( never looked at it so i dont know).

you probably know all this but i thought id chip in just in case ;-)

apparently there is a hardpoint normally added that does not do anything because some mods i have seen have those kinda upgrades (Excelcia?) and it adds to stuff like you are asking...

does it sell the original engine ? that would be good

l can buy and see changes made to speed in flight

but can not sell original or bought engine

get stuck with both engines
