Description
[Vanilla|Survival Ready|No Subgrids]

A simple gatling gun to attach to large (and small) grid ships via a connector.

The C-30 is the smallest of the connector based guns. The biggest advantage of using a connector is the ability to yaw the guns inwards, so your weapons will converge instead of firing parallel.

-fully conveyored
-attached via connector
-no scripts needed


Some stats:
-Blocks: 39
-PCU: 692
-Mass: 2.9 t
-3 gatling guns


How to use:
-Build a connector on your ship (leave some space for the gatling gun)
-Paste in/ project&weld this blueprint
-Move it close to the ships connector, so that both glow yellow (easiest with a tugboat)
-Nudge it around to align the rotation (either with jetpack or tugboat)
-Open the terminal of the gatling gun and start the timer (connectors then lock automatically&permanently)
-To shoot simply move the gatling guns into the toolbar (works the same way as with small ships)

Some tips:
-U can still use 'P' for landing gears or connectors, the gatling guns will not detach
-Since a recent update Connectors stay connected without power, i.e. the guns will never detach
-In creative, paste it in while slowly moving towards the connector
-You can change the Connector strength, if that makes alignment easier
-If you attach it with a tugboat, you can yaw it inwards to sight them in, so they will not shoot parallel but converge

@jonathan. I like your connector mods ! :) I was wondering if there was a to disrupt power on an opposing NPC player, like an EMP ? Another one might be a way to block an NPC's antenna signal or beacon. LOL Just a thought man ! :)

It's completely vanilla, those are totally normal gatling guns. I just used the Bullet Trail mod, so you can see it better in the screenshot.

Does it fire orange bullets?
