welcome to TLR,

to answer a question or 2....well you cannot make the weapons fire under the cruise and or the trade lane.

secondly...the racing thing is somewhere in the threads in the forums...look at the thread labled..."This has it all" (or something like that) they have all you'll ever need to know

Srry man but both of your ideas are *cough**COUGH*Hardcoded*COUGH*.

Missions types can only be the already existing ones. If you want to make a mission that makes you race, modify Hovis Race in SP. But don'T ask me how

And for the fire when Cruising, it is also (AFAIK) *cough COUGH*Hardcoded*COUGH* (I'll die if I continue to say tht word lol ).

And firing while cruising or using lanes seems a bit, well, uber to me. If you wanted then you could just give all ships impulse speeds as fast as cruise speed.

But I suppose the NPCs would still use their cruise engines so it would be too easy for the player...
