Recording & the Exploding Drones
« on: August 10, 2010, 01:05:33 PM »
The incident happened while flying in the scenario in KI-67's.   I was in the #2 gunner position, F3 mode.  Decided to record my mission at roughly +10-15 min flying time. After pressing Alt-R, a freeze frame of 4-5 sec, then both drones exploded as the screen showed motion :headscratch:  I would provide film but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

do you have a lot of films on your film folder? If you do the delay is the computer looking to find the last numbered film so it can use that as its name until you decide to change it or not. With a lot of film the lag may have been long enough for your drones to get away from you.

Just a guess tho.

Yep, it's caused by your warp. When you start the film and stop, then suddenly lead ahead to where you really are, the drones attempt to catch up as slow as usual and blow up when out of range.

The amount needed to bog a system varies on said system. Generally it's best to rename your films to something useful and move them out of the folder.

I try to keep mine under 25. I try to take some time on the weekend to go through the films I have and those that I save I move to another folder I have call "old films". You can still access them from the film viewer, and it keeps my "films" folder pared down.
