LAV - Attack Rover

Description
NO MODS OR DLC REQUIRED! This ship does not use any subgrids (hinges/rotors/pistons) and runs a single optional script.

Just as its name implies, the Light Attack Vehicle, or LAV, is a rover designed for combat and raiding. A combination of heavy armor plating and repair welding systems (which cover both turrets and wheels) allow it to stay armed and mobile in a fight, even after taking a decent beating. Though spartan, the LAV's interior is fully pressurized for driver comfort; its survival kit provides occupants with necessary medical care. In addition to the standard pair of assault turrets and a single point defense gun, a custom turret controller and existing conveyor hardpoints also facilitate adding non-standard turret hardware for even more firepower.

if u like pls leave a rating ^-^ <3

Description:
This is an old (six-ish months) rover build for the first iteration of GVK/Deserts of Kharak, a rover-focused server which is probably one of the best ones out there. It's adapted for simpler vanilla use, as the original required hinges to have small gatling turrets on a subgrid (this was the first iteration).

@Whiplash141 yes! it took a bit for me to get the hang of it but I've really been appreciating having an external UI to move sprites around, don't think I can live w/out it now lol

@Night Fox uhh wdym

I get a bit HL2 VIbes ... it looks a bit like the Combine Rover ! ... it dont need a lot of dakka .. but you have made it with a lot of love

@VanLabyrinth
Hey now, there is no need for that kind of criticism. It's not the most heavily armed or armored rover I've seen, but that's not what makes a design good. This is a pretty cool design, it makes a good early-mid game combat rover, it functions, and looks neat. Just because you feel the need to self-promote your own builds doesn't mean you to have to be rude to other creators.

Reminds me of the Combine Vehicles from HL2. Great job!
