Wicked idea for a mission.

Post by Dead_Again »

Is it possible to create new types of BBS missions?

At Pirate Bases your read about Gate Racers.
Howabout creating such races where there are high stakes.
Using the targeting system or navigation beacons, one could create a track or something.

And winner takes all. Maybe a cross between the lotto and a transportation mission....

but its racing.

The only thing I haven't really figured out...besides the syntax (because I don't know that stuff) is how to make it difficult/challenging for someone w/ a maxed pegasus.

Thoughts?

Nice idea :thumb_up:

How about having lasers that reduce a ships speed as well, then marksmen skills would be put to the test as well.

IMO the pegasus is hard to fly at full throttle, i dont think many people could accurately bank at hi speed. One way might be to put some very nasty turns in it. But then again maybe the other racer, the AI will use the same ship as the player so its sorta like a stock car race.

In X-T there was a mission when you enter a sector. You would be contacted by a guy that wanted to race you to a station. Easy but fun. There was also a good mission of an out of control ship heading towards an asteroid and you had to blow it up befor he got there with a Hornet. can some one make these. :D
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games

hehe the station races were real fun when you had to duel an M5 in your TS.... flying some crazy manuevers to shortcut to the station entrance one could still win though.
On the other hand the guys challenging my maxed out pegasus with some old teladi M3 seemed quite insane....


anyway I really miss those in-game events/missions :/
