Drone help and HUD question
   

How do you use drones? I have some in the cargo bay of my Discoverer and don't know how to launch them.

On your HUD what are the two little computers with arrow triangles next to them? What do they indicate? What keys do you use to do whatever they indicate?

Thanks all!

Drones
   

Figured it out. You open your cargo bay. Then eject a drone. Then it shows up in your property list like a ship.

Still haven't figured out that HUD thing though.

you might be referring to the throttle?

or perhaps the missile indicator?

there are a lot of computer thingy in the cockpit... and not all of them do things. some (most) are purely decorative...

Think this indicates something
   

It's to small puter with an arrow triangle next to each. Directly across from the missile indicator. Somebody has to know!

I'll have to load up the game to find out. I know the cockpit inside out after playing for a hundred hours but I can't put my mind to what you might be referring to...

I think I've got it. If you're talking about the triangles near where missiles are displayed...

That's the weapon slots in your forward arc that are online... or perhaps even just filled. Probably online, though.

They show what weapon is actually installed at the moment, and will include a blank slot in the rotation no matter how many weapons you have available.

Sorry. No pearls of wisdom in this oyster.
