Buffalo Mk2 not firing its swarmers
« on: September 01, 2012, 03:14:19 AM »

Today I made a custom loadout for the Bmk2:
Spoiler
Loadout:
Weapon groups:
[close]

I tried it in battle against some fighters, it did well, but it almost never used its swarmers unless an enemy fighter went right in front of the launcher. I mean, it's not that much of a problem, usually fighters tend to circle the target so they still eat some swarmers, but i wanted to report this "bug" in case it's something easy to fix (if there actually IS something to fix, of course).  :)

Thanks for the report - fixed. The issue was due to the Pilum being in the same weapon group - it'd erroneously consider its stats as well, instead of only looking at the weapon it had selected. Basically, it was still treating it as a "linked" group in one part of the logic.
