So what is the simulator all about?

Reading the descriptions in the Simulator room here it's more than clear its a training tool, a quick way to boost odds of approval, and even a way to settle friendly challenges.


thats fine and good, so how do I actually use it?

There will be a host of Simulations added over time that cover simple, to quite complex situations you may encounter in combat. The scenarios will cover several skill sets.

  • Star Fighter
  • Small Capital Command
  • Large Capital Command
  • Ground Deployment

When looking at the choices you will notice them labeled in ways such as
" SF2 " meaning Star Fighter simulation 2. this helps identify the simulation being run quickly.

Simply read the description, and the options, some simulations may support upwards of 4 other individuals to participate with you. Even if you don't have the additional people, don't worry, they will become NPC slots.

Start a new thread and label it however you want and include the tag " ie, SF2"

The simulation may be treated as you would a story mission, as a PVP battle with others assuming the roles of the " enemy" or you may request the " computer" be assumed by a senior ranking officer for a challenge.

BE WARNED however...Republic commanders are notorious for looking in and adjusting the programing to throw in wildcards to contend with.
( that is to say post a random element to contend with just to keep you on your toes)

once you accomplish the mission just PM a S.O ( IF you are looking for scoring) and let them know you finished, and go brag that you took down twice s many enemy fighters than your peers.

if you did very well the officer may elect to award you achievement badges
like these!:

repbronze.gif


These you can choose if you like to add to the signature of your republic character.


Nice nice....so promotions?


When used for serious training the simulators can give great insight into the developing skills of a budding young officer. Simulations will be reviewed and graded on several levels including but not limited to;

  • attention to surrounding conditions
  • creativity, or unorthodox tactics
  • mastering of basic strategy
  • accomplishing secondary goals
  • and kevin bacon

showing high marks allows for senior officials to gain confidence in ones abilities, and can put people into positions better suiting their skills ( and you can ALWAYS test whenever you wish) Note however that high command ranks of general/vice admiral and so on must be earned through operations.


and that is how the simulators are used. :CSly

I'll be adding them as I go, and naturally Accepting scenarios as well to add to the lists ^_^

they more or less function much as the same as Jedi training and the likes, just most rather than having an instructor on hand, it plays more like a RP battle, just an instructor may butt in and decide to mix things up

have 1 sim up for all 4 types.

remember you can grab a friend to take on the roll of " the bad guys" as well as the Republic, and both can gain points, or grab an officer or really any republic character to help out in any roll you like that fits the scenario. just let me, know via PM when you finish it.


and no making it overly easy unless your intending to make the difficulty increase as it goes, because we review these :CIsee

If you have a sim running, and need someone let a senior ranking officer know, or grab a friend...

I'll be getting people out as soon as possible just a little caught up in fixing things here and there and pushing a few stories so I get delayed in replying to sims at the moment.
