NPC Weapon/Shield Dropping

Mon Jun 21, 2004 4:34 pm by Split_Infinities

Heya all, I just have a question about NPC's dropping Weapons and shields.... how do I make them be 'dropped' regardless of level? I mean if I'm in a starflier and level 2, and I kill 10 legionnaires, I would expect to get maybe an angelito or 2, even though I can't yet use them. But I've never seen that happen! Does this actually happen? Or do I need to change some files? If I need to edit, could someone point me in the right direction please? Thanks!

Hmm, after doing a little testing, it looks like your player level is not what matters... it seems that it's your ship. I cheated and gave myself a stiletto as well as opened up all the the gates at the beginning of SP, went out and killed some corsairs and mollys and they were dropping guns... and I was level 3! Looks to me like the npc's will drop up to 1 level higher than your ship can equip. I'm also going to try increasing my level (say between 20 and 30), get in a low level ship and see if this still holds true. So again, does anyone know how to change this? Later

Its your value, not your ship. Changing loot, adding loot, and more is all in the newbie questions thread. See that sticky at the top proclaiming to have it all? Read through there for loot, and you will find how to change and what!

Thanks Chips... sorry, I did a search for 'dropping/dropped items' not loot... ha I didn't even know where to look. Thanks again.
