AS I was playing around creating a MOD based on David Webers Honor Harrington series... it suddenly struck me that it is possible to make LACs (Light Attack Craft).
Seems you CAN create a Squadron with One fighter, then create a Bomber entity using a Frigate Mesh, and basic frigate stats. It can't have shields, or Abilities, but it does fly around like a fighter.
Neat thing is that each Cap ship, Carrier, or Defense Platform can have two Squad Entities attatched to it (one fighter, one bomber), but they DON'T have to be the same entities as other Spawn Platforms...
So, I now have a Cap ship that Spawns LACS (Frigates), while retaining the ability to field regular Fighters, and Bombers, using other Cap ships and Carriers...
Still have not done the HUD icons yet, and I'm using the Tech Light Frigate Mesh (too large, but I'm not a 3d Modder, want somthing about 1/3 that size for a LAC), and I"m still playing around with the map icon (shows a bomber squadron, want it to show as a frigate...) but it seems the experiment has been succesful.
