[REQ/QUESTION] Turrets target surface-elements/turrets only - possible?

Post by swatti »

Is it possible to add a turret-mode to target only visible turrets, engines, shields, but not the hull itself? "Attack my target" can do that but i want to be able to fire on any visible target, or use turreted-ships to circle targets and pummel their turrets out.

Yes, definitely possible and I think the disable ship routines already try to do that. Would require adding in a whole new turret command though and I have no idea if that runs into the UI limitations though (Perhaps just use the existing mining command for non-mining ships to do that? :gruebel: ). Don't really have time to poke at it right now, but a good thought for a future update to AAI

Any news about that? Im currently trying to disable station turret in a big ship with laser but... well doesnt go really well since i have to manually target all surface element manually. I tried giving the order to my ship and then tell it to disable target, well since its a station doesnt seem to work.
