Hangars...

(1/2) > >>

Damyen:
Hello,

It seems that hangars are changing their names in v2.5-dev : "Small" and "Large" hangars are becoming "Interceptor" and "Dropship" hangars. Thus, I understand that the small hangar will only host Interceptors, and the large ones only Dropships, right? But then, where where will the Raptor stay ? The description of the aircraft says it has both cargo and combat purposes, so what should I guess?.

This "very very important question" left apart, there could be some solutions to make the choice of a hangar a more strategic decision. For example, large hangars could have advantages (worth their price and size) like : Quicker repair rates / Quicker equipment mounting or dismounting / Quicker refuelling / Ability to host 2 small sized aircraft (like Stiletto) / Ability to host 1 UFO to speed up disassemby / etc.

Does it sound reasonable ?

H-Hour:
Raptor will go to dropship hangar as it is more of an armed dropship than a troop-carrying interceptor.

Damyen:
About the Raptor, I actualy thought it was a dropship... With big guns, though ;).

With this post, I just wanted to point out that it was (maybe) an opportunity to change the "Large/Dropship" hangar into an "Advanced" hangar, with notable features that compel to really make decisions regarding the whole strategy (for now, "Large/Small" or "Dropship/Interceptor" seems of little importance-).

geever:
The function of the hangar didn't change, they were specific to plane types before too. And I don't think we want to change it now. We changed their name because Small/Large was misleading, some players thought they could store any aircraft in the small one and large one is just to store more.

Btw. The UFO Paedia and the buy/sell menu tells you which Hangar is needed for an aircraft... but it  still says small/large. H-Hour, this must have been overseen.

The ufopaedia entries for the hangars or the aircraft or both? And where does the buy/sell menu draw its info from? The definitions in aircraft and building ufos is correct, I believe.
