Can change any rotation within the script with a single additional line.
Will also check the other things. You still have time to set stuff up before activating it though

It is?? I could swear I had put that line in. Will check it.

Ah it's refreshing to see something other than 'Ban the Solano!'

New video:

Oh and I was just messing about with my videos statistics and found out that most views come from Canada! Wooo! Canada Rocks!

Ah. Well, seeing the end-result (one Yokohama and a crapload of Solanos), can we get a shoutout for "Ban the Solano!"?

Okay, on a more serious note, the deca.cefas seemed to be more or less perfectly useless (gone within the first seconds), the Deimos performed rather poorly compared to what I had expected, and the Yokohamas actually did a nice job - even if it was a suicide mission for the most of them.

I think the TMs didn't really get involved in the fight this time, right?

Technojerk36 · Post by **Technojerk36** » Wed, 16. Jun 10, 12:10

Nah, the TMs just kinda hung back and let the rest of the ships do the work

Congrats on your win AV, I doubt EJ is going to be very pleased

Hmm, I wants to see the video of this!

So... when will it be out... next year?

Technojerk36 · Post by **Technojerk36** » Wed, 16. Jun 10, 12:18

Oh come on! I've been releasing the videos pretty much the morning after each battle! (There's a very good reason for this)

Check tomorrow for the video.

Which PACs? The fighter ones?

In my previous experiences, my fighters have eliminated his easily every time, because although the MAML misses more the PACs are trying to hit very fast targets and when the MAML does hit, the fighter is dooommmed!

But, meh.

I really want to see who failed me where... then I'll get out my whip and teach them a lesson. Then I'll incinerate them and buy more minions!

Oh, and to be fair I did have 20M credits less of an army. I bet the Claymores just rammed the enemy didn't they?

Technojerk36 · Post by **Technojerk36** » Wed, 16. Jun 10, 12:59

Yeah the fighter ones. It looks like the PSG kinda ruined the shielding of your fighters. Also, your guys split up while AV's focused fire.

And I don't think the Claymores actually did anything!

EmperorJon · Post by **EmperorJon** » Wed, 16. Jun 10, 13:20

Hmm, in mosr of my tests the fighters did break up and spread, but the Panther killed his, then everyone bunched on old Oddy. ;:)

Shall we hold a wake for TJ's computer when he tries to run the next match?

I think 007bradz's #deca.cefas failed because they were few in number and had no anti-fighter escort (so got mobbed by Solanos and shredded by SSC). At least I hope that's why, else my 20 #deca.cefas with numerous other fighters are a waste of money. Fingers crossed though, the fight with kalu should be a bit of a walkover.

It's facing AV in the next round that has me worried!

No! I'm surprised. The mice fought back and killed the cocky cats.

Must have been a tough, but nice to watch combat, right?

I'm happy with the result and anxious to watch the vid.

Can't wait to see that match. Most likely, it was down to pure chance, which fleet would be first to focus it's firepower on single targets versus dispersing it. And, it goes to show you, you can't host these kinds of things on more than one computer for reliability's sake.

It's nice to hear that Yokohamas aren't a waste of money. Not so that the spam fleets are doing well, though that is unsurprising...

Awaiting the next video...

Woohoo I've right three times in a row now. I'm not going to tell EJ "I told you so" but congratulations are in order, so congrats Gavrushka, Spychotic & Alex Vanderbilt.

BTW TJ shouldn't the title be imperium3 vs. kalu?

My credits remain on imperium3.

Hope's TJ's rig doesn't melt trying to run the next match.

EmperorJon · Post by **EmperorJon** » Wed, 16. Jun 10, 17:33

I'm not going to tell EJ "I told you so"

I proved I'd fail.

Aro · Post by **Aro** » Thu, 17. Jun 10, 00:52

So EJ can tell himself "I told you so"...

Alex Vanderbilt · Post by **Alex Vanderbilt** » Thu, 17. Jun 10, 01:34

In fact, he did so... lots of pages earlier when he was unwaveringly convinced of his own victory and found to tell the world a joke.

However, EJ did as he said, if I'm not utterly wrong, that he did run one save all over again. While doing my testing I came to the conclussion that a good measure of luck is included in Fleet Fest - which is great all the same I think. Sometimes you're lucky sometimes not. But, hey, it's been a lot of fun so far. Let's keep it that way.
BTW, I'm not 100% confident for imperium3. I don't know if that 1 Panther is damage sponge enough. However, his Decas have enough ammo to win this. Anyway, it's gonna be fun

Aro · Post by **Aro** » Thu, 17. Jun 10, 04:00

Updated the script but the race relation doesn't want to get set to friendly for some unknown reason. Added two editable distance settings, one for how far the two groups spawn and the other for how far apart each ship will spawn in the group. Plus the rotation is set so they face each other.

Will try to muck around with the relations more so the xenon ignore the player.

Edit: Oh and 'Ban the Solano!'
