[Discontinued] Star Wars Octuple Barbette Turbolaser Cannon Mod

[h1][b]I have decided to stop modding Space Engineers to pursue other interests. I am fine with tinkering, updating, & uploading your own version of this mod. In that case, credits & a link back to the original mod would be appreciated.

Here is a mod containing octuple barbette turbolaser cannons. These cannons were placed on Imperial II-class Star Destroyers which first appeared in Empire Strikes Back during the Battle of Hoth. Although they are only known to be placed on Star Destroyers, it would still make sense for the cannons to be used on other advanced Imperial vessels and for station defense. Should work in both survival and creative modes. Just a heads up, some of the turrets (and the stationary turbolaser cannons) are very powerful like a lot of other Star Wars weapons in the lore so I recommend using a shield mod with this mod.

Additional Details:

The cannons in this mod are divided into categories which have 3 types of ammo. The first is a projectile ammo type which does not affect voxels on objects such as planets or asteroids and the energy bolt cannot be targeted by other turrets unlike the explosive ammo types. The second ammo type is explosive and affects anything it impacts with. The third ammo type is the full power setting. This setting has enough explosive power to vaporize asteroids and create craters however, it uses more Tibanna and the turret or stationary weapon fires energy bolts with a slower fire rate compared to the other two power settings.

Energy bolts can be green, red or blue.

The size of the turret also determines the power level of the ammo. Each ammo crate contains 500 shots.

The turbolaser turrets fire 8 shots at once.

The turbolaser cannons have authentic star wars sounds when they fire.

The turrets in this mod are modeled by me based on several image sources.

This mod contains a Star Wars ammo crate model created by me.

The weapons in this mod are not in my Star Wars Weapons modpack. This likely will not change until I find a way to reduce the loading times for that modpack.

[h1]Here are some fixes if the mod is not loading up Check to see if the mod was downloaded from the Steam Workshop, is selected in the menu, and the load order for your mods may have to be adjusted before loading a world. If you can't find the mod or are getting other errors unsubscribe and resubscribe to the mod on the workshop so Steam downloads it again. If that does not work go to the mods folder which is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\244850 and delete the folder titled 668044165 so the mod redownloads. Again, unsubscribe and resubscribe and make sure the mod folder is fully downloaded, selected in the menu, and the load order is adjusted before loading the world.[/h1]

Please, do not ask me to bundle one of my mods with another one of my mods. Also, please, do not ask me to post specific content from one of my mods into its own mod. I've decided this due to the extra work it would take me to keep mods with duplicate content updated and organized. I will likely ignore comments asking for this.
