Flyswatter Anti-Drone Turret (1 mod)

The Flyswatter is a medium/close range anti-tank weapon inspired by Klink-Hammer from Supreme Commander FAF.

Uses Whip's AI Turret slaving script, which unfortunately has trouble with ballistic arcs from what little testing I did. BUT at least it works with modded blocks so you can replace it with whatever you fancy :)
Once DDS supports modded weapons, you may switch to it to enable autoreloading, but for now you must manually replenish it's supplies.

Again, designed to be as simple as humanly possible, so size is on the small side, which makes it relatively cheap to produce, however it might be tricky in survival. By reverse engineering and figuring what makes it tick is much faster than trying to fiddle with blueprints.

Being just the gun, it's not meant to really take a hit or face larger foes. It's effectiveness is derived of small size allowing it to blend in and to get that first shot hopefully crippling the foe. Adjusting engagement range via the designators is preferable.

Installation in a nutshell:
Paste on to ship/station
Add a designating turret and rename it "Designator"
Look up Turret Group Flyswatter and add designator into it
Add prog and run Whip's script

Bob's your uncle!

Update 1.01: Changed weapon to M5B, making it easier for the script to account for projectile drop. Thank you for the suggestion Alpha5!
