About Realistic Tank
From Factorio Mod PortalTank weapons are now: Tank Cannon Tank Cannon Rocket-launcher Vehicle machine gun Fair, balanced, logical. The result is realistic
Tank weapons are now: Tank Cannon Tank Cannon Rocket-launcher Vehicle machine gun
Adds vanilla battle tank 2nd cannon weapon (cannon a+cannon b). To use 2 different ammunition types (for example: cannon shell-explosive cannon shell) in separate titles.
Why?
Because cannon shell is much better at hitting nests and worms, while explosive cannon shell is good at destroying crowded enemies. (Cannon shell's penetration power increased a lot in version 2.0: 1.0k)
Which one should I fire? I created this mod so that I don't have to change ammunition tiringly.
Also, it's a big absurdity that rocket launchers (there is no vehicle that fires it until Spidetron!) are not in the tank, which is available to the player very early. I also added rocket launcher weapon to the tank. (Instead of flame thrower)
When I think about it, everything is extremely fair and as it should be.
Tank weapons are now: Tank Cannon Tank Cannon Rocket-launcher Vehicle machine gun.
