Is it possible to have Hive ships spawn/launch Darts when they see an enemy? We already have the docking fighters code itself for the player in place with Broken Mirror, but say all Hive ships had the same amount (5 or so?) except yours, which would have whatever you wanted in it. Would that be too far beyond our abilities (I am just making sure that it can be done)?
Paulwall, he didn't say anything about targeting, but anyways....
Yes, the player's docking fighters code is already in place, I know... It's very far beyond my actionscript capabilities, but I'll ask DW... I hope he reads this post, 'cause I'm not in the mood of PMing him...

If I have direct, straight code, I might probably be able to program an A.I in Flash.
But, I have very little knowledge of Actionscript, nor do I have Flash. (Well, I don't have Flash anymore. Deleted.)
Is there any way of posting the Actionscript A.I source code here on the forum?
Man, if I could program this stuff from scratch...........
Just tell me if that's possible.
Note: Actionscript doesn't look that difficult to me.
It's sooo similar to Javascript, that I might pee myself.

Hmm...
Sounds like I will need to (again) make an attempt to get Flash and (for the three-billionth time) make sure it works for my computer. But, alas, I don't have the RAM to do Flash easily without going at the speed of dead bunnies.
Let's stay off AI until we can find the AI code and such.
If anything, could the player have a weapon that spawns Dart-looking torpedoes (remember the kamikaze Darts from Atlantis Season 1's 'The Siege prt 3'?) that deal a light amount of damage but fire fast–and could it be spawned from the side of the Hive?
I hope my suggestions are good.
PS: A list of other ideas just for everyone to strike down if they feel like it or bring up:
Have Ori Supergates spawn Ori Motherships in their homeworld (say, only one Supergate exists, but it sends out a continuous stream of Ori vessels)
Darts use blue forward-firing weapons to replace the cannons found on Birds of Prey
replace the power upgrade found at the earth research station with a ZPM (Zero Point Module, just for laughs and a bit more connection)
Defense Stations use the Ori beam weapon (in the Stargate SG-1 season 9 episode 'Ethon' where a Prior gives the Rand Protectorate step-by-step instructions to build a Ori Beam firing station with a super shield)
Beam weapon destroys a Ha'tak vessel in one shot and the Prometheus with three (lets have the Ori weapon be expensive, eh?)
Any Lantean City-ship has three slots filled with fast-firing drones. Shield is MUCH higher, hull is low. Shield should look like a circle, not just wrapping around, eliminating the space between each extending part of the city.
There should be a system where the planet is a giant Atlantis, and the stations look like buildings on it.
Darts have no shields– Wraith vessels don't have any– or to make up for the Wraith's ability to regenerate hull, have almost all shields and barely any hull so that shield will pretend to be the hull healing.
Earth (under any AI nation) will fire a stream of drones at enemy ships within torpedo range (a continent is really just a station, say) and can be destroyed because it is a station.
Replicators automatically have the ability to colonize; they don't have a lack of skill in surviving because they need nothing but material to replicate.
The Nox have a world– they have a massive amount of power and have super-stations (massive shields and health) and all of their attack ships can cloak.
Everyone hates the Replicators. Replicators are a secret race (one of the three invisi-buttons for three special races)

Yeah, right, lots of stuff... I'll take some of the ideas into consideration... But look... That three invisibutton thing is no longer in place, as I already told people how secret races are going to work... (see previous posts and the old topic)...

No, in th game's code, there's this spawn ship code that spawns the npc ships. It's what allows other ships besides the player's to exist ingame.... If that piece of code didn't exist, the Flash Trek galaxy would be an empty one...

but you could, with the right skill, edit it and link it to a button and menu system to spawn any ship you want in the game.unless there is something preventing you from doing that.

Yes, I could, but the spawning itself wouldn't be the problem... I had to associate every parameter of the code with a variable, and then I'd have to create a graphic menu with buttons manipulating all those variables.... I lack skills to do that, and even if I had those skills, the whole process would be very troublesome...

it wouldn't be that hard to make spawning ships. just manipulate the code for buying ships, so that you open up a menu with every ship in the game, and each ship costs 0 bars of latinum

I had understood that part, I just don't understand why you did that.... What I read there is: If Vex hadn't made FlashTrek, then Darkwing, whose username would be Wingdark (due to some alternate-timeline-ish event related to the not-creation of FlashTrek) would create a flash game named Trek Flash and then I, raffitz, would create a mod of Trek Flash named GateFlash... I'm not dumb, you know, and besides, I have a lot of Alternate Timeline experience thanks to all the sci-fi shows I watch....
