thanks for the info and response! I'd love to see your stuff out there for myself and other engineers like me.

Now that animation engine handles movements a vanilla version is more feasible but only for some of the weapons. Many of them still need weaponcore to function properly while others aren’t possible at all

I love your designs and artistry! I like to use small grid stuff so to see this while searching got me stoked. Question, is there a way to remove the dependency on weaponcore? I don't use it. I'm starting to work on a world scenario for a friends and family server and would like to make a faction using your models. If not thanks for your time and keep up the amazing engineering!!

you should make alot more tank turrets.

Yes I have for sure done the panic button system before, now a days though, I'll do outer base 4 interior turret defensive perimeters around the based, so kinetic ammo mags
Quetz 6 May, 2022 @ 10:08am 
That's a good tip, thanks! I'll start doing that :D
Killerbee77  [author] 6 May, 2022 @ 10:05am 
Nah I don’t no of anything that could do that. People tend to place panic buttons around their base or grid to activate defenses in case of npc spawns. Until they finally have sufficient power generation where they can leave weapons online

Absolutely loving the design of your weapons. Can't wait to try them out in-game.

Regarding the power-draw. Do you happen to know of a radar system that could toggle a timer on/off, to switch defenses? I tend to progress slow and usually MES' attacks outpace my growth.

I am gonna be doing a good bit of work on my stuff over the summer and will probably release 2 new weapons by May 10th of which both are retractable
