nope i use some deployable speeder bikes in bfsm and have no problems with lag

hmm i never thought of that..a deployable vehicle would be really cool!

yup it doesent make sense to make like at-ats like that though *here is your at-at general veers bloop but like speeders i like and also its insanely eaisy i am trying to see if they coulde be used to add new vehicles to stock maps for side mods.

hmmm what if you made the auto turret dispenser have a secondary ordinance and have a charge up so when you first put out a vehicle, its a speeder, but if you charge up, it would be like a LAAT or somat (charging would take considerable time though, and you could name the trooper like vehicle specialist or something!)

dont you think that would be *slightly* exaggerated?

Wait that gives me an idea! Couldn't u make a vehicle model that doesn't move so that you could have like a rally so people could spawn next to u?

ummm, what would be the point of a vehicle that doesnt move? i mean i get the objective there, but why not just make something like that, that uses the controlzone.msh and tga? wouldnt it be more efficient?

Well would u be able to lay it down though?

yah probobly, you would have to give it a slightly different ODF than the vehicles, and have a mine dispenser dispense it, but if you got the programming right in the odf's it woul do what you asked.

so you want a dispensable commandpost?

that requires some lua-coding but skyhammer successfully did that
(you need to dispense a commandvehicle i think)

Offtopic: but i made a deployable acklay yesterday that you can control! im not sure if this has been done before(most likely) but i thought it was worth mentioning!

really? huh i have tried to make deployable units for ages i wonder if they woulde also work like the acklay

no actually they dont, i think it is because the acklay has vehicle features, but i tried mixing the remote droid with a unit and it well...went bad. but i believe that you could make a deployable droideka because it has walker features! if you want i could send you the odf for the acklay.

EDIT: I also made a remote control Droidtrifighter that well, isnt so remote. when you release it you automatically are in it but it shows the health oyu had when you threw it and not the vehicle health. plus when it dies you are thrown out of it and fall through the map (not fun). this also happens when you try to exit.

ok sure i might learn something new

do you want them VIA email or what? they really arent anything special, really something that anyone could do.

i dont care email, pm, whatever

here is the odf in text form then
your going to have to make the remote droid's ord the acklay

So if I'm correct I could easily make a deployable droid to fight along with me...?

*starts work immediately*

Is it possible to have squads then? Like at the beginning of the game say 5 Ai guys follow u around THE WHOLE TIME not the dum follow me command were they look at u then run away.

that would be done through ai-goals, but its not that simple to do i think
