Im almost done with this.. I made Slave 1 a buildable Unit. Its not as powerful as Slave 1...  I am having problems with the shields... not working right now.. but so far it looks and acts awesome. Its a tad too powerful... also.  I hope to have this done by tomorrow sometime.

I made a buildable squadron of three Firespray's as an Imperial unit. So far, with my rescaling, they're almost impossible to hit, so I've gotta change their speed or something. Half the reason I posted is so I'll remember to do that when I log on tomorrow, 'cause I keep forgetting...

I made the Squad 1 unit. They are tooo powerful... I took out a big rebal base with 4 of them. Also took out quite a few X-wings etc etc. Right now I am having problems with the shields... not showing up. Also..  the healthbar on the screen is not showing a decrease. However in the GUI it is.... Its something I need to look at...

I dont think regular Firesprays had Seismic Bombs

The seismic charges were a modification made by Jango Fett, and were not part of the original design. So I disabled that in my version. I had four squadrons let em off all at once...destroyed an entire rebel fleet...mwahahahahahaaaa!!! *Ahem* Hmm, seem to have lost my cool there. So anyway, I decided they were too powerful and stripped away their precious harmonic bombs. That, and I can't seem to rescale them, and as it is the bombs are a good two and half times the size of my Firesprays.

Hmm.... they are normal size for me. I made the ship a fighter.. that may be why my shields are not working correctly... Ill try making it a corvette.

All the rebel fighters have shields, so I don't think that's the problem. And, my Firesprays still have shields, so I think you must have changed something on accident...probably...

That ones simple, just open the Projectiles.XML and find the Proj_Harmonic_Bomb_Slave_I line and change its Scale Factor accordingly to the Firesprays.

I may make it a corevette and see if that makes a difference.

I did, that's why I'm stumped. The harmonic bombs just won't change scale, no matter what I do. I'm willing to let the scale innaccuracy slide for the Slave I's bombs ('cause Slave I needs them, it's a hero), but I'm not willing to leave them in on the standard Firesprays.

Im confused why you would make them anyway, the firespray-class fighter Jango stole he stole from a space prison while hunting for a bounty of someone in the prison. It was a prototype fighter that was supposedly 1 of 4 or something, and it was never introduced to the empire for production, also since this was pre-Clone Wars the produced firespray would be obsolete. Jango's isnt becuz of all the modidficaions he makes to it

Not true... Kuat remade the Firespray and sold quite a few of them after Bobas Ship was Impounded by the New Republic after his fall into the Sarlaac. It sold very well... The original was made to transport prisoners.. Jango stole it and blew the other 6.

There were six. Jango stole one, and destroyed the other five. Those were the prototype run for the Firspray Patrol Ship. There's no evidence production was never continued at some point. In my version, I mention that the original schematics were used to make a new trial run with the vessel. Mine is available at a high tech level (3) and relatively expensive, since they should be uncommon.

Many years later, K.S.E. found themselves on a more secure financial footing, and again desired to enter the starship market. The company then re-introduced the Firespray-class, hoping to build upon the reputation of the remaining prototype and its legendary pilot Boba Fett.

 

The new Firesprays were, like the original prototypes, designated as a patrol and attack ship and perfectly suited for law enforcement and interdiction missions. With Kuat Systems Engineering keen to expand the market for the ship, they had started to promote how easily the ship could be customized and upgraded to fulfill a myriad of roles.

so wait, is the firespray released yet, or what? he said he was gonna release it, but i dont see al ink anywhere... ???

Its not done... Im not entirely happy with the results as of yet... its coming soon.

when do u think it'll be done, exactly? im anxious to try this out.

It's hard getting a satisfying unit out of this, isn't it? I'm still not entirely happy with mine either.

wut exactly needs to be fixed? the thing looks fine to me.

Making the unit not invincible. My first version was so weak it was killed by Pirate Frigates in a few seconds (not sure how that happened). I tried upping the stats and it became utterly invincible. I'm still tweaking it until it's realistic to the true capabilities of the Firespray craft.

INVINCIBLE? how much did u boost its health too? lol

It's not necesarily that.  The firespray ships are just really good. 

INVINCIBLE? how much did u boost its health too? lol

 

It wasn't the health, the enemies just couldn't hit it. They still can't. I upped the health and shields (still lower than Slave I) but it no longer matters because it seems like nobody can hit the Firesprays. They have fighter-class armor too.

what do u mean, "nobody can hit them"? From what i've observed from Slave I, it aint exactly a very fast kinda fighter. Its got decent speed, but it aint fast enough that nothing can hit it.

That's what I wondered. After I upped the health, all of a sudden they dodge every attack. Their almost never hit by enemy fire.
