Radar Jammers?

[UberJumper]

So a few quick questions about radar jammers:

1. Do they effect just enemy units or also my own?

2. According to their tooltip they only effect "ships" does this include turrets?

1. It depends on the mark level. Mark I affects everybody. Mark ii just affects enemies of the radar jammer's controller.

2. "ships" always refers to all units in the game, so turrets are included.

Good questions!

Thanks!

Another question (i really think there should be like a stickied topic, which is just ask small quick questions):

Is there a way i can setup AI Wars to allow me to select Mobile Repair Stations when i select my army? Furthermore can i make my Mobile Repair stations follow around my army, so if i designate a target it will follow my army, instead of just sitting there and stopping?

I smell a suggestion here for the polls (follow / guard / defend behavior)

To get MRS to move with, you can select it with current selections by holding shift while left clicking the MRS. To save time in the future, set them as a control group. Have to update every once in a while as you add new ships, but it will move to any movement orders you give the whole group.

You bet!

There's a "Strategy discussion" subforum for that, actually.

Just hold Ctrl (or Shift, I can't recall off the top of my head) and the selection box will select everything, rather than just military units.  You can use group-move to keep stuff together (hold G, or use the toggle button at the bottom of the screen if you always want that default-on).

Hope that helps!


Tssbackus, regarding guard/follow behavior, that's been discussed for but it's out of scope for anytime in the near future -- the group move is the feature for doing that sort of thing.  There is a Formation move, too, though, if you want -- check the controls.txt for the specific hotkeys on that, it's not one I personally use.

It's Ctrl, yeah.
