Warbros Fighter Weapons (130mm Flak & 23mm Gimballed)

HIATUS WARNING

Because of Keen SWH's repeated pushing of broken updates which make it hard to impossible to maintain a running server, I am taking a long break from Space Engineers. This includes work on said server, mods, and support for these mods. Please keep in mind that we still would like you to message us if you intend to do work on our mods for other purposes. For the time being: Goodbye, Space Engineers. Maybe you become playable without me wanting to kill myself and/or the people responsible for pushing out QA-confirmed non-working updates actually changin their ways.

So long, and thanks for the clang. _____________________________________________________

Warbros ModLabs brings you two reworked weapons for small ships, for your enjoyment.

Content: 130mm Flak Cannon, 23mm Gimballed Gun Status: Tested, loved, and approved. Useable: We even made a video with this. Sources: Stark Industries, BASF, Northtrop Gruman Concepts: Origami Folding Class 3B, Carnesville Community College Software Used: WinAmp 3, Notepad++, TotalCommander, IrfanView, GIMP, Origin

Videos: The first video is a mockup in creative, shooting some random large ship with a small fighter. Scroll around. Audio is dead, sorry about that. Second video shows a heavy fighter engaging a Raiding Platform on a server, in survival. This one has audio. ;)

Compatabiity Note: This mod can run concurrent with either of the OKI Weapon mod variants out there, with the SEI Weapons Pack, and can run by itself. The 130mm Flak Cannon and it's ammo are their own items, so they do not override or change the originals. The gimbaled 23mm gun is also a unique entity, and does not destroy anything else. It does use the 23mm ammo by Okim, but all models, textures, sounds, etc. are included (and renamed) to avoid issues either which way. There is no need to put this mod at a certain position in your mod list, it works whereever.

Stats! _______________________________________

• 130mm Flak Cannon Range: 500m Rate of Fire: 300 RPM Damage: medium Accuracy: poor Special: The original Flak Cannon uses ammunition that would not fit through small conveyor tubes and ports. This has been fixed in this modpack. Also, the original Flak Cannon fires four times, then reloads. This variant fires continously, but has half the rate of fire. It is also a slight bit more inaccurate, but carries further. Consider this a spamming weapon, supplemented by the gimballed guns. Both weapon and ammo have received proper icons to find them in the G Menu and the assembler, to make the ammo. The recipe now builds only one unit instead of four in one batch, but the cost has also been cut by 75% per batch.

• 23mm Gimballed Gun Range: 800 Rate of Fire: 525 RPM Damage: low Accuracy: high Special: This variant of the original gimballed gatlign gun fires 23mm slugs, as per OKI Weapons Collection. It is pin-point accurate and carries far. It does, however, deal less damage than other weapons. The rate of fire has been slightly reduced to the original gatling guns, to make up for the added accuracy and versatility of the gimbal mounts. These are best used in groups. Keep in mind that they can and will damage nearby blocks. When paired with the 130mm Flak Cannon in close vicinity, make sure the barrels' ends are at the same height, or your 23mm gimbal guns will destroy your flak cannon barrel. also keep in mind that bullets can and will detonate your flak shells prematurely - so build smart. _______________________________________

Based on the models and works of both Tantalising Turnip and Okim, and their respective mods. Please give these guys a hoot. Find their respective mods here: • [SEI] Weapon Pack DX11 by Tantalising Turnip • OKI Weapons Collection (DX11) by Okim _______________________________________

DX9/DX11 Status: We are in the post-planets era. Any mod you see released by me is DX11 and usually still supports DX9, but if one of those is not working right, it is DX9. DX11 is what I focus on, as any modder worth his salt should. Please don't ask "Is this DX11 compatible?". Yes it is. I am not going to release a mod that I cannot use myself, and since I run a server with planets, that means DX11 is always gonna work. If anything DX9 users might sometimes not luck out. But DX11 will always work.
