concerning the HP, is it possible to launch the torpedo like mines? (see YOH)

I'm definitely no expert, but regarding the torpedo script, making the torpedos speed very low (not zero) and removing the tracking would make them act like mines wouldn't it?

As for the physical image of them, I dont think you could do anything other than a single image. But the fact that they're so small means they'd be almost invisible...

Perhaps something along the lines of the 'mines' launchable in KM (Not sure if they were ever seperate) Reducing the explosion radius and replacing the model with that of a 'Probe' would work?
Did you know I'm on Twitter?

Pity you can't make the fire animated, so that it looks like it's constantly burning :P
Actually, i think you could! think about one of the sovvys that has "changing" bussard collectors. you could just make multiple textures for certain parts, script 'em to "rotate" and place em where the fire is most prominent!  
...
although, i am no scripter or modder, so i dont know if it would be possible...
But! if it is, one of "us" could mod that ship, and do it!
that, would be freakin' awesome.

Yeah...the bussard animation is actually a part of the model itself...not a script.

Its a bit of both actually, but considering the damage is spread over 4 separate texture files which would mean another 64 large files..... I Don't Think Sooooo :P

As for the the torpedoes, Ill take a look on what I can do ;)

First of all, this pack is superb! I was drooling the whole time reading through the beta report...

We all want the ship pack (quite badly ;))...you probably don't know this yet but it's really bad form to ask a modder to do something for you, hurry it up, etc.

So just try to be patient, buddy :)

To elaborate, It's against the rules to ask for updates of any form including dates of releases, if the modder has made any progress, and to bump a thread that's more than a month old.

You'll only get a response usually like this:

 :whenitsdone or HOLY THREAD RESURRECTION BATMAN!!!

Even if JB Doesn't mind the bumps here and there...Jimmy is usually the one who explains what I have said better :D

And in 18 days it'll be Constable's anniversary of bumping this thread. The date of that happens to be in August. :P
