Missles in Privateer

[Unregistered]

I can't Seem to figure out how to use friend or foe and imag recognition missles in privateer 1. Anyone know how?

Just hit Enter and your FF missiles will target the nearest bad guy. IR missiles will go towards the enemy you have targeted.

No Dice

I still never see a target lock diamond when i use those missle types. They don't lock on, why not?

You may need a better radar system... the most basic ones can't lock targets, I think.

Right. Personally I found a radar that worked very well for me because it allowed me to use "dumb torpedoes". It had friend-or-foe recognition, but nothing more. No Locking, no ITTS, no missile targeting. The last is what I was looking for - because I can fill all of my launchers up with torps and spam them like crazy.

Also, IIRC, you will not be able to lock on with a FF missile. You just fire and it locks onto a target on its own.
