Quad posted:I feel really dumb asking this. You're in the wrong mode. If you have move toggled and click on an enemy in range it will set you up to go punch them, as that's how you do so. If you want to shoot instead select shoot in the bottom bar. (Or just move somewhere else first to use your move for the activation.)

ditty bout my clitty posted:Also get rid of «surprise actions», either stick with a turn order or just make another mechcommander I just figured out in my recent session that the difference between "surprise action" and "the game lets everyone finish their movement turn before switching to combat" is whether you moved to a hex within LOS of the enemy or just within sensor range. I get why they do it but the game could definitely be clearer about the distinction.

Completely unrelated, but is it possible to create new Mechwarriors for skirmish mode? I want to try some loadouts in it and for that I need 2/1 spec pilots.

I just had an MP battle where I forgot to change my lance so I brought a clash sized stock lance against my opponent's battle size lance. I had 3 urbanmech and a jagermech while my opponent had an awesome, a kintaro and 2 locust. 4 rounds later the kintaro pilot is dead and half of the awesome got blown off. My opponent quit.

Or, at least, you're always supposed to get your full turn and seeing someone directly isn't supposed to yank you into a separate thing.

Liquid Communism posted:They're used in the mission you get to run SDL 'mechs in. The Black Knight in particular runs an ERPPC as I recall, and the Atlas has ERLLs and Med Pulses. Ah, well, I haven't progressed to that point yet. 3025 is a bit boring in terms of weaponry; at least with 3039 you get an expanded selection to choose from without being bogged down with the Clans.

I tried that pause fix in the OP and it does make the game a bit snappier. The only downside I saw is that the voice clips tend to run up against each other. Are there any other downsides to using that other people have seen? Also, is there a way to have a mech back up, so it can retreat without exposing its back or side flanks?

Insert name here posted:It's not 100% every time though. I need to test the next time it happens but it anecdotally it seems to happen if you train a skill while they have high/low spirits. I've managed to lock two of my pilots into high spirits and the one low spirits one expired normally. Oh yeah, for ranged attacks. I promptly forgot about it after the tutorial and I was just clicking on different targets manually.

Aw man getting that XCom RNG vibe. On Three Years Later, rolling though perfectly, An almost dead Shadow Hawk runs right behind my commander and in one melee takes him from perfect health to loving dead.

I really want to get my hands on a proper catapult. Or any fire support mech, really, the Centurion is holding up ok but its getting a bit long in the tooth. So's my little dual AC-5 blackjack, actually I went back to that once I got an ace pilot who is really drat good at zipping around and shooting folks in the back or hopping around on ridges. That seems more useful than a quickdraw or any of the 55tonners right now, though I just got another Orion I'll probably spec out to be as much of a melee monster as I can until I get a Grasshopper or something. Autocannons are just so goddamn satisfying. I'm currently rolling with an LRM-boat Centurion, AC-20 Orion, dual AC-10 Jager, and dual AC-5 Blackjack. Once I can get a decent dual-AC-20 assault mech for my tactician commander to ride in I will be so happy.

I like how these SRM carriers can shoot me from longer range than I can shoot them with LRMs. It's been one round and a mechwarrior is already critical and with three wounds. From cover. With four evasion. Two headshots. Behemoth's hosed. e: Also it bugged out and I can't actually shoot any of the srm carriers with anything but lrms so that's cool, this is definitely winnable now RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 01:53 on Apr 30, 2018 |

Nah, it's basically just a bigger Blackjack.

Pull back immediately, Sensor Lock, and drill it with LRMs. Also I'm fairly sure that if that SRM Carrier shot you from long range, then it was an LRM Carrier. They're also a thing.
