2 small ideas
« on: January 29, 2011, 03:45:47 PM »
1st off is when your tank gets "tracked" can it stay level just because the track isn't connected doesn't mean its gonna list 45* to which everside.
2nd Not sure if this has been asked for but here we go, a glider towed by a C47 that has about 5 troops for extra security just in case some of the other troops got killed. land goon press "2" to switch to the glider open doors and let em run what ya say?

The Airspeed Horsa carried 28 troops. I reckon it would be more fun to make the gliders piloted.

Even the German DFS230 carried 10 troops, so I think 5 is too few. The US CG-4A carried 14.

But best of all, the Me321 carried 130 :D. Imagine one tanker trying to kill all them as they wend their way through town.

technically C-47 can carry 28 troops

crossfire.  on your first point totally agree with you.  but on the second ht has said that if he did that then he would increase the number of troops needed to take town to whatever can be carried by one player.

Make it so two players have to pilot the goon/glider combo.  It could work with the .join command.  If the goon driver releases the glider without someone else to drive it, it spins and crashes horribly into the ground.  dunno why, but I think that'd be kinda fun.  It'd be no different than having two goons, other than the novelty factor.

+10 to gliders! Good comes in at 5k, drops glider, glider circles town to lose speed and attempt to find somewhere to land, all the while dodging the fighters. Yah.
