Question about homeworld.

Post by Alyrium Denryle »

Hello. I am playing the Star Wars New Rebelion mod for the original homeworld. Well I was wondering ig there is a way to target groups of fighter rather than one. They are so fucking tiny, I am having difficulty ordering my fighter squadrons to kill them, individually. It has gotten to the point where y wings, about 24 of them can take out my ISDs with a full fighter screen. It would take me about 100 to do the same thing, because of the comps perfect targeting. Help would be appreciated.

Yep, it's quite simple. First select the fighter you want to give the attack orders to then hold the Ctrl key down and click and drag a box over the enemies you want to attack (like you do when selecting your own guys except your cursor will have the crosshair symbol next to it whole you drag the box), the enemy ships inside the box will be highlighted to make things een simpler to.
