I thot id point this out. If you watch one of the Halo Hacking vids youll see that the player has on some mod to blow up the dropships. When he does shoot one the Shade (orwhat ever it is) falls to the ground. Now i was speculating this and happened to remember that on T&R, when in the hanger, the dropship has no gun. I think the gun has its own AI. kinda pointless but i thought it was kinda cool.

Ya im sorry i did just now notice that the gun IS mounted when in the level T&R

Why would it need its own AI. Couldn't it gust be detachable, or something.

You're exactly right. The gun it's-self is a "unit" attached to a larger unit. A few hackers have even made themselves the turret. Cool if you ask me.

It needs its own ai because the dropship itself has none, it scripted. Thats why the gun has its own ai, otherwise it would do nothing.

that's true, on "Keyes", after your get the Command Nueral Interface out of the Captain and go into the hangar, two banshees and a dropship land. If your on the lowest level, the turret on the dropship will shoot at you, even thought the dropship is stationary

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

It yhas to have AI thats how its follows you around

Well as long as you are simply refering to mods it shouldn't be a problem. But hey, about the dropship on the T & R, my buddy and I were blasting away when we heard a gruntish warcry come from the turret before it fired. When our crosshairs passed over it, they went red, as if there was an enemy... Yet for all the bullets in the world, we could NOT kill it!
