Hi there,
Just wondered if other people had this problem as well? I've found that the only ship that will let me fly normally is the arrow. The other ships turn slowly and then just stop turning altogether. It's impossible to do a dogfight with another ship since my ship just stops turning.
It's hard to describe.
Like, if I hold numpad 8 to turn upwards, the arrow will just keep going and i'll do a loop. The other ships just get halfway there and stop like there is a ceiling there. The Longbow is like steering a brick, it barely turns and then it starts to roll instead of turning left or right or up.
I'm on a mission where they only allow the thunderbolt or longbow but the mission is impossible since i can't fly these ships.
Is this a control issue? I can't get the mouse to work for flying, and only the numpad and direction keys work for controls.
If anyone has any insight into how to make these ships flyable, please let me know. I've found that you can adjust power settings to the engine but it just seems to increase the turning rate and not the ability to turn all the way in one direction or another. I feel like a flying cow in space and everyone is just shooting me from every angle.
At least with the arrow I could fly normally and catch enemies faster.
