Default Re: seekers w/ speed 0 = chaff

"EDIT: Spoo, are you suggesting this as a fighter "weapon", or Ship-based? Can Fighters even carry seeker weapons??? I've never seen it, even in a mod"

Yes, fighters can use seekers (have it in my D-ModGold, fighter seeker missiles, very effective I might add ).

And Spoo, very nice idea!!

I can see the applications already (different levels of tech giving different ranges of 'Chaff' and 'Chaff' having increasing damage resistance) and maybe even a 'drone' chaff that has a movement rate of 1 so it will follow a ship and soak up any PDC it has.. I had chaff in a modd once but it was a Rate of Fire 30 PDC cannon that destroyed one missle per hit, I like this (your) idea much better. Now if only we could control how long the chaff will stay in play.......
