Mosquitos, Repairs and medical

Peacemaker · 2003-04-12, 12:32 PM

Ok, ive set up a charicter with a gauss, standard and agile armour, pilot skeeter ad harasser. Ive also given him both lvls of med, engineering and hacking certs. My question is i read a post a while ago about the mosqito beingable to repair things or something. Is that true? My second question is do the Medical aplicator and the engineering aplicator count as rifle or pistol slots? ( if they are pistols i can always drop stuff out of my present vehicals trunk (the spare ammo) and load it up with the stuff i need. My basic plan is to use this char to help out forces by repairing treating wounded and quick hacking.

Medical and Armor repair are pistol size and need to be equipped in a holster to use.

Vehicle repair is another device that is rifle size and again needs to be equipped to a rifle slot to use.

And no the mosquito does not heal anything!

They had this idea once.
The mosquito able to repair other vehicles.
But they took it out a while ago.

Sweet, that fits into my plan almost perfect. I wish i had one more rifle slot on the Agile but oh well. I can stuff the armor and Medical aplicator in the pistol slots and then carry a gauss into action with the vehical repairer stuffed in the trunk were some spare ammo used to be. BTW are the personal armour repair and vehical repair ammo diffrent?

edit: ok i changed it a bit now i can drive the reaver instead of mosquito, ill just drop most of the extra ammo for rkts and cahin gun for storage and provide limited support (basicaly it just transports me and has minimal protection) (i found a small glitch that i accidently did in the ew character maker i changed one of my certs to 1 cert point lol (now i can afford it all))

Mosquitos never had the ability to repair, it was either a misinterperatation or misrepresentation of what the dev teams meant to say about the Mosquito.

Wait... you can put a spare rifle in the trunk of the Mosquito??? It has a TRUNK?

I doubt this... but I could be wrong.

All vehicles(except a few like AMS, Galaxy,etc) have trunks including the MAX armor.

It's OFN.

EarlyDawn · 2003-04-12, 03:06 PM

Galaxies have trunks, according to Hamma and the logic that it has to carry ammo somehow.

SpacemanSpiff · 2003-04-12, 03:06 PM

Wowzers!

Thanks, Dio.

Isn't the nano-dispensor (The vehicle-repairing one) a rifle-slot, even though the BANK is a pistol slot? That was shown in one of the screenshots of a locker, I believe.

�io · 2003-04-12, 05:03 PM

Yeah the nano dispenser is rifle size, i don't think anyone said otherwise.

And galacies might indeed have trunks, i just never looked for it. Trunks aren't all that useful imo. If you're in a squad all you need is a good hacker to hack an equip term and voila. Trunks are useful to load vec ammo though.

If max armours has TRUNKS then an infiltrator has a trunk.
MAX armours isnt a vehicle as u know.
Only vehicles has trunks, armours has inventory (or whatever u like 2 call it-back pack or something).
