| Summary | 0001648: Add Low-Power Radar Jamming to Raid Starship | ||||
| Description | I find Raid Starships are pretty useless right now, because they fly onto a planet and get instagibbed so fast I'm not quite sure what's going on. I THINK it's an artillery guardian, laser guardian, or heavy beam guardian doing it, all of which have pretty extreme ranges. However, Raid Starships are also still a nightmare for players, but adding a 7,000 range radar jamming (or something around there) would help with the problem of being long-range instagibbed without making them any worse for players to deal with. | ||||

I was going to link 0001412 but that was back in 4.034 and x4000 buffed the raid since then. Adding radar jamming would be helpful potentially. However I notice you mention low-power in your summary, did you mean weak ie enemies shot from a longer ways away than a 'high' powered radar jammer? |
|

I think by "low power radar jammer" he means a radar jammer that emits a very weak jam. A 7000 maximum range is beyond the range of most ships, however with a recent change I've seen making sniper turrets able to fire on Raids, this would undo that change. |
|
|
Low power radar jam is a weak radar jam. I.e. one that won't affect most ships, aside from the most long-ranged ones. Only restricting ship ranges at more than 7000 seemed pretty weak to me, compared to space planes having 3000, for example. |

Implemented in 4.047 "Raid Starships now have radar dampening of 8000, helping to protect them from the likes of artillery guardians." - release notes |

Awesome. Looks like this one is Resolved or at least Feedback. (I'll see if I can change it...I cannot.) |
|
|
Status should probably be changed to resolved (which I can't do). Seeing as it's now an implemented feature a new report would be a good idea if those who were opposed wished to discuss it further, just to keep mantis reports shorter and more organized in general. |
|
|
That's what I meant, I was going to change it to "Resolved" but neither you nor I can do that. :P |
|
|
Yep, I saw yours after I posted. Mantis doesn't warn you of changes to the thread when you're posting like the Forum does apparently. |
|
|
Pfft. Why would it do THAT? :P (Also, only some forum software, and only if the admin turns it on--personally, I hate it because 90% of the time my reply is directed at a specific person and someone else posting doesn't change that). |
|
|
I find it useful in general but I still hate getting ninja'd 3-4 times if I'm writing something longer. (I usually just go with something short in that case which is just as well most of the time) |
