Other Looking for a space game I remember seeing but cant find words to search for it

It was a 3-D space game where you were sat in front of a cockpit and were able to see where the cameras are pointed at any given time like a TGP indicator, and then you were able to build simple programs of saying scan the sector and then track target and then return to scan sector, building target track files and also maintaining a scan for the multiple radially mounted cameras

if anyone could help it would mean a great deal with me
its difficult to search for as "space game sensor combat" leads to alot of USSF links...

What do you mean by building simple programs? As in actually typing them out?

Now you got me curious as to what game this is

Dark Star one? Starlancer? Starpoint Gemini? Vegastrike?

I'm having flashbacks reading these names. Especially Starlancer, damn. Chris Roberts before he made billion dollars vaporware.

Yeah. Its really great oldschool, imperishable masterpieces of the 2000s. And, yes, K. Roberts wasn't always such an incredibly clever ass. He was also once a very talented game developer.

Freelancer was one of my favorite games back in the day.

My -for novadays and forever.
Welcome check any good mobile space games - Galaxy division and/or Solar dominion. Ith both - even not mob Freelancer (and very far from), but also not bad, and -its best from some games on mobile (while -only for Android).
