Would like to see these 3 tatical combat modes in-game when engaging the enemy. Could help with ramming and clutter and friendly fire..
Remember, this is for when in combat.
Reverse - would help strategically fleeing.. because at least they can fire and have frontal defense... Instead of having your weak point thrown in their face.
Strafe - would be awesome for medium to fast speed starships as to where they can have their frontal armor always facing enemy but circling around enemy in this mode ... Fire on the move.. have a hot key set for it so when we take control we just fire away.
Port side positioning - useful for battleships and cruisers. They just turn their port side to enemy where most of your guns are, while straffing around the enemy and unleash.. can add extra armor on sides for cruisers and battleships if they go into port side positioning but greatly decreases armor on front and back.
How can this help with ramming and clutter and friendly fire?
Get the pathing down for each mode you select.. if two units are selected to do the same thing.. the a.i will automatically make one go high and other go low on attacking.. no ram no friendly fire .. no clutter... You'll have to make your starships go 3d now.
