NPC frighters armor scale

[cvekiboy]

Hello to outstanding community which revealed most things that I needed to play with.
This one I cant figure out:

Trains, Transports and all other freighters
1. What define the strength of this ships?
Rising the hit_pts in shiparch.ini only affects the hull bar on them with their destruction after only 2 standard (full load) shots!

Any advise?
Thanks!

Just raise it more?

The NPC fighters have armor in their loadouts, which is what you might want. For example, the top three fighters are in different ships with different hulls, but they also have different armor to make them all effectively about 24000. You can find the ships and loadouts used in MISSIONS\npcships.ini, the various armors in EQUIPMENT\select_equip.ini and the loadouts in SHIPS\loadout*.ini (which one depends on the ship).

Raise the hit_pts in [CollisionGroup]s aswell.

does the trick!

Just one thing. On server side only works with small glitch (see pic)

Puting it on client side aswell its correct size - so solution is there.

Can I solve this easy or to leave it as it is?

Thanks/hvala guys!

It doesn’t look pretty…
Maby insted of raising the Collision groups, just put in the loadout a designed armor_scale. I think Armor Scales are in misc_equip.ini under the headline [Armor], but currect me if I’m wrong.

You want this to be server side?

Yea, as it works on that side for ability of fine-tune without each mod update to be taken by users.
No luck without as seen as it behaves so clients will get it too. :oops:
