Subspace missiles? It's always been in the code, the only thing missing was IIRC a tbl entry (can't remember the tbl name, but it's left blank).
All you had to do was define the tbl for it - namely the weapons fired - and allow the player to use the targeting laser to trigger it.
It was only dumped because it was unbalanceable, I believe - it would have allowed infinite Helios barrages from subspace.

hmm... if u could put a limit on the amount of missiles u could fire... i suppose u could code them as reinforcements, that would limit them

*shrug* maybe the SCP will be bored one day and make a limit. or possibly you could FRED it in.

It may already be SCP-ed in, I can't remember (an ammo limit on targeting laser, for example).
In fact, I think someone coded the TAG-C to work for this purpose (as was intended originally by V, I think). Check the SCP forum at HLP, I guess.

targeting lasers are cooler than targeting missiles.

I was just thinking, has anyone ever made a lot of fighters kamakaze into a warship. Over 50 fighters, if you hadn't try it. Yes this is what I do on my free time.
