Edited by: Needo on 02/10/2003 14:45:15 Nah, it would probably be what someone else posted above, that someone start aggression on the sentries and MWD out of range, then sit put.
Edit: I am too slow these days.

Stationary NPCs that lose their target will retarget according to their AI criteria. As far as they're concerned, you no longer exist as only targets they have locked or meet their activation criteria exist.

Not sure they *would* lose their target just because it was out of gun range. I read the stats on the guns posted above and didn't see stats on max targetting range or max locked targets. I don't lose a lock until someone leaves my max range, and sometimes even then I for whatever reason maintain a useless lock (ie. can't fire on target) even on targets a distance away. During the interpatch period where drones dropped in 10s, I had one case of weirdness where 2 Serpentis were bounced 126 KM away (don't know by what) and I kept that lock for 5 minutes while chaining the spawn that replaced them, before finally trying to shoot them, and only then did I lose my lock.
Can someone in fightclub please take a couple of mates into Chaos and find out? I'm curious as hell now...

Space Invaders know.
Any of our victims that were paying the slightest bit of attention know.
the only people that seem confused about this issue are people who *WEREN'T THERE* and haven't got the first idea.
Oh, and Nymphogirl is a troll.
As for whether Drutorts idea works, I couldn't say, we've never tried it, it sounds like a stupid waste of ships, seeing as how *sentries don't work that way*, but I'll be pleased to hear if someone *does* try this.
Joshua does not know.
Joshua can only guess since he cannot afford to lose ships to test out the thoery 
Joshua should stop talking this way before Joshua smacks Joshua.

I think I just got complimented/insulted but, like your method of gate camping, I'm completely unsure!

Surely if the sentry guns are rendered inactive by whatever SI are doing, it matters not that they are high SS in 0.4 space near a gate.
The sentry guns will not be able to fire while SI are "messing" with them?
We've had precious little first-hand accounts so it's very difficult to figure out.

I'm starting to think energized armor and armor repairers.
Or shield/energy transfers to keep those shields up.
Definitely some sort of simply sitting there and sustaining the damage. And if so, good job. ------------------------------------------- "My main griveance with the Caldari state was that once I had finished my work for them, they wanted me dead."

Hey, hey now... i wasn't implying you would be too dumb to understand and talk about things correctly... but that i am. :s
"Stationary NPCs that lose their target will retarget according to their AI criteria. As far as they're concerned, you no longer exist as only targets they have locked or meet their activation criteria exist."
... Approach the guns in Ibis, intitiate aggression, get shot to pieces. The sentries relock on the pod and stay in aggro mode, but won't shoot. Still, as long as you keep your pod nearby and they are locked on you, they should ignore anyone else.
Or something like that; don't feel at the moment like trying it out... o.O

Alright, well I tested attacking sentry gun to get its attention then going outside its range. It works, for about 30 seconds and then it switches targets.
So much for that idea.

How about if you were to aling your ship with the 2 sentry guns . Sentries are what 30km apart and have 60km targetting range you could jam the closest sentry and stay 30 km from it and at the same time be 60km from the other one out of range so everyone warping to the stargate would be in range of both and if he looses sec in that range you would have 1 of the sentry gun on your side . I never tested that but it could really work considering the game mechanics
