[Archive] IMDC Skirmish Fleet ~AI-Drone Retrofit~

Description
IMDC Skirmish Fleet, Retrofitted with my Fleet-AI Script!

NOTE: This version is for Archive only, the code used in this has been superseded and this version is no longer used, please see my workshop for the latest version!

About:

This is the fleet of IMDC ships used in the release video for my Fleet-Command Alpha Release They are the original versions with some quick retrofits to make them more suited to fleet-life, (extra thrusters, cutting down on the size etc)
At the moment it's pretty rough around the edges, but it's still pretty fun to play around with! Before you download quickly read through the brief manual below on how to command your fleet!

**Has a SINGLE 5000m modded sensor on the front of the ship, this is not necessary! (although it makes enemy detection a helluva lot easier)**

Fleet Contains:
Modified Kronos Class Light Carrier as mothership
8 X IMDC Battle Drones
2 X Hyperion Class Light Frigates

Check out the originals here!:

All credits go to JD.Horx for the original builds!



Using The Fleet

Getting Acquainted With The UI:
The Toolbar In The main command centre overlooking the Hangar has a flight seat with all the required buttons to control your entire fleet!

The LCD menu directly in front of you provides a UI for the Fleet Command Unit.
Press 1, 2 and 3 toolbar buttons to go 'left', 'enter' and 'right' and navigate the menu:
1 - Left
2 - Enter
3 - Right
buttons 5 clears the current command and returns you to the main menu.
button 6 will command ALL units to assume fleet formation positions,

To Command The Fleet!:
To command units simpy select the squadron you wish to command from the menu, and select the command you wish to issue! Simple!
(DO NOT press enter on the 'Attack' menu if nothing has been detected!!! this crashes the script and is a known bug)
Squadrons 1 and 2 are your Fighter-craft squadrons, Squadrons 4 and 5 are your two frigates.
Upon issuing a command that is not 'dock' all ships in the squadron will disengage connectors thrust away from the mothership and follow your command,

REMEMBER! undock and move away the frigates before you try commanding the fighters!

See my workshop page for my Alpha-pack (link at top) for more info regarding commands + tactics while I finish off the workshop page!

Has the code been fixed, or still broken?

The script that operates the fleet is and has been broken due to changes keen made a few months back, the code is currently undergoing a major overhaul, see the workshop page for fleet-command for more details
