Easy question - how do I launch a fighter and
- Thread starter CLG 6
- Start date
Launch fighter is: Look down to bottom UI select fighter, select pilot to fly fighter, select launch...you can then give orders when they are spaceborne...
The pilot gets a percentage cut based on their ranking - check their profile and it will alert you as to how much of your hard earned dosh they get.

I have waited literally forever to say this and it's not even rude in this context:
Look between your legs, you may find something you weren't expecting!
As for combat wins that is currently up for debate: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...embers-still-take-half-your-combat-experience
For bounty they take the % as Lngjohnsilver1 says above. Note they take that if they are active or inactive and for everything from exploration credits to missions to combat vouchers. It's literally a tax on your earnings
It's also much better to take a low skill pilot and train them than taking a high skill one straight off, at least in terms of money. Obviously it's a big time investment to train them up.

Can one use a ships fighter to do land based mission like taking out a goliath or skimmer. Or are they restricted to space. I know there a limeted range they can be from the ship, but if I hover at 5 or 10 k's above a base, can I dispatch a fighter craft to take out the guards for instance prior to landing and utilizing my srv to scan a beacon.
They have a 30km range. I don't know how effective they are against skimmers, I assume they are wasted pretty easily when it comes to defense turrets and goliaths though.
We've tried it on xbox with him flying the fighter and me flying the conda and had lots of fun despite both being on the same network.
He's shamed me into grinding for a vette on xbox tho as I've mainly been on ps4 and ditched him lol
Which of the dozen available on board fighters do you use for planetary type destruction, I've got room for two. Don't know why, but I'm thinking something with a plasma set up, could be wrong though. I'm not very well versed on weapons variations.

I like the plasma cannons, they’re great! I’m a fan of the Taipan. It’s more durable.
I personally will use a fighter during planetary scan missions to scout the sight before I land.
