    just wondering if its possible to wire the drone launcher from the stargate svn to target a certain player on a server rather than a random player?

    Use a Beacon Sensor and a Target Finder. Beacon sensors output is gps cords. Then wire the drone launchers x,y,z to the beacon sensors output x,y,z. There!!! Oh and link the beacon sensor with the target finder.

    correct me if im wrong but wouldnt it still track random players? im wanting to just target a certain player for instance me and you were on a server how would i wire it so that it would target you and you only?

    In the target finder options tick Target Players and Do not target owner. And in the Target name filter write the players name if you want to target only 1 player.

    And you can use paint target to find which player is being targetted, and use the next target input to cycle through all the players in the map.
    Common sense no longer applies.

    that is something i have already tryed but when i wire it up (and i may not be wiring it up to the right option) and fire the drones and hold down the track button they end up going some place thats not even near the intended target

    ok im still trying to figure this out and i have run into a bit of a strange problem, first off i want to say that before i try and get the drone launcher to target a certain player, im trying to get it to target a certain npc which is a zombie, now im using the target finder but the problem im having is that, it will only target the npc if i have the dont target owner and dont target owners props unticked, if they are enabled the target finder doesnt see the npc, can anyone tell me why this is happening?

    EDIT:i got it figured out and will have a tutorial up soon once i test it with real players
