Hi Forum,
Now really I've scanned through all the reference documents and manual for No Remorse and I can't find a the controlls for the spider bombs. I already found out that you can only stirr them left and right, ok... but how do you do that?
I'm controlling the game with a mix of numpad and keyboard (like shoot with space bar, use items via u etc.).
I just cant find how to control these darned things and right now I'd like to destroy some big laser cannon with them :D
Thanks in advance for any answer!

Greets,
Roin

My memory is that it's the same keys that turn your character left and right while aiming weapons. So I'm guessing numpad 4 and 6 for you?

Hopefully someone else can confirm.

Waltorious is right, num4 and num6 and alternatively the left and right arrow keys, I found the easiest was to set Numlock so your character rotates instead of snaps (never liked to use the snap method) and use Capslock or Shift in combination to rotate faster.

Using them is a bit tricky though due to the psuedo isometric view and they also move pretty quick, make sure you have a clear way so they don't blow up in your face. I used them mostly for taking out stationary objects like shieldgen's, gunturrets and camera's, they're too quick to attack moving targets IMO, plus you are vulnerable whilst using them, so use homingspiders or whatever they are called against those.

Hm ok thanks for the reply, I'll try it later today... I think I kind of tried that but then again like you said they don't seem to be easy to control.
This is exactly what I try to do, take out a friggin gun turret. Normally I avoided them by simply trying to use their rotation to run past them.... but now I have a couple of spider bombs and would love to destroy these things :D

Just quicksave before using them and try again, eventually you'll get the hang of it.

I actually found the reason why I thought I didnt controll them. I always ran after them. The trick I found for myself is to first READY your gun and then release the bomb. That way the little Silencer will only turn in the direction you move the bomb to and controlling the spider bomb suddenly becomes easier than controlling your character :D

So thanks everyone who helped me figuring that out, you're great :) .
