In the larger ships, have you considered a type of automatic battle flight pattern for those operating the ships as a single player? You could engage a type of 'autopilot' that would fly a predesignated pattern in a loop. While on autopilot, you would be able to man your own turret, allowing you a greater axis of movement and allowing you to track attackers easier.asked by Panda Bear
I'm not sure we necessarily discussed that. It's not necessarily a bad idea but I wouldn't say that would be at the top of our list. We do want to encourage to play together or potentially you could hire some NPC crew, so you could have somebody to be your pilot, which would be a bit like autopilot and then you go off and be the gunner and he would be reporting to you.But you never know we may actually engage some version of defensive circle autopilot but I would think the first push is going to be working with your friends and the second push is when we get the NPCs to board the ship and then go from there and see what we're going to do.
