I had wanted to implement railgun also but it is beyond my skill level which is about 0,5(total noob)

because of this, i will modify it as a different entry as that seems to work because there are different versions of it in the workshop.

As such, i take by no means any credit for model, scripts, textures and most sounds. The credit goes to the mods respective authors stated above from whom i asked permission and i am thankful was allowed to use their hard work for my project.

special thanks to Firstofficered for teaching me the basics of modding thx to which i was able to edit both his work and the basics of Telion turret

and Skallabjorn for telling me how to update the energy weapon script his turret uses

except for torpedo which has a speed of 600 and maximum range of 2400 (to be used with 500 speed mod without the worry of destroying own ship) all projectiles have speed of 300 and max range of 1km but ai aim is vanilla 800m


As you can see the dps is close identical to vanilla my main reason to make this weapon collection was to create valid energy counterpart to vanilla without being too op i know many others are already balanced but tbh i kind of didn't like them. to offset the advantage of not having any ammo the heavy launchers draw 10x the energy of Skallabjorns Telion and i increased the costs for each block.

also as i didn't change much in the mods themselves there is a high chance that they will not be compatible with the originals.

Again great thanks to the Space engineers modding community and the mod authors for allowing me to use their work and i hope player will like this balanced weapon pack its not much but it gives variety without breaking immersion of base game as even today we have technology to superheat plasma so in the year 2077 these weapons should be possible.

and even though the weapons are named plasma they use their original trail effects as my photoshop load the files as pitch black.
