Controling a fleet of ships?

Post by Psyco Diver 69 »

I've been thinking about this alot lately. What if you bought a bunch of ships and decided to open a shipping business or mercenery group, or even group of bounty hunters. Well we can't control a bunch of ships. What if we could hire pilots to fly our ships, give them missions to fly. The cost of buying the ships, paying the pilots (or giving them a precentage), and repairs would offset the amount of money you would make. You could still have a chance to lose a ship if they are attacked. Good idea?

There have been a few requests for group control of the NPC ships that you are associated with.we could most likely adapt faction AI for this purpose after we write the faction AI :lol: The AI code is a bit of a black box ATM no one really understands how it works.

Enjoy the Choice :)
