So when I was playing Star conflict, I thought of the Idea of a ship that can be set as a spawn point, like a carrier sort of ship. It would help with getting you to the front lines faster, it could store you’re allied ships and they could change them in battle. So many possibilities
Microwarp is almost the same thing, When you are dead you respawn and just microwarp back to the place where you died.
Your idea is too OP in my opinion.
The combat recon game mode sort of does this, as the captain’s position determines the respawn point.
It would be pretty interesting to add an additional game mode where the captain spawns in a special ship which functions as the actual spawn point.
Ohhhh… Me like. DO IT. DO IT NOW!
Something that could be done for this class is drone swarms. You’re basically a drone carrier that spits out specialized drones for special occasions. Healing drones, combat drones, support drones… You name it, it might be possible to do without making them overpowered.
A maximum of 4-6 active drones, hitbox similar to Beacon Drones, lower hp than a Ceptor, auto-attack/heal any nearby targets/friendlies or maybe you can order them around.
As for the Carrier itself, maybe Engineer-esque hp and mobility. Active modules and Missile slots would, for the most part, be available for deployable drones of some kind.
That’s all I got, tbh, I’ve thought of this idea for a while, but never gone too deep about it…
Edit: I’ll try to think of some modules for this…
