Beam Turrets Plus

These are so much fun, good stuff boss! Looking forward to seeing the 570's C:

You'll know the issues better than my dumbass who just stumbled upon this, but I did wanna pipe up and mention a few things I saw~

The damage report screen seems to include the Mk610 and the Mk590 in the same listing, and I giggled when I noticed I did 180% damage. There's probably some tags in the 590 that got carried over that might need a once over to disambiguate between the 590 and the 610 for whichever system keeps track of damage. additonally, the elevation limits in the description along with the turrent’s actual limits might need some attention but I’d gather that’s a WIP thing. The only other bug I saw was the custom user textures seem to apply to the layer for the central beam cannon and the turret base, but not the left and right/1st & 3rd cannons. Those ones seem to be rocking ANS green no matter what type of color scheme I try to throw on.

Past that, being a commission piece for Blacklight, I'd understand we're not necessarily the intended recipient, but I did wanna say it seems in a decent place as far as raw damage, but I'd be concerned about the range and accuracy with an FCR lock. I run mount gyro's and I'm not fighting against anyone trying to get inside my attack-arc testing it out here, so good chance I'm overthinking, but I know if I were on the other end of this bad bitch I'd feel a little punished for it's range. I'd humbly suggest bringing the range close to or below 6km to keep it close to its knife-fighting roots; I wouldn't wanna feel obligated to bring it over a Mk65.


All that said, wanted to be sure to mention the lil’ armored doodads sticking out on the 590 make it look like it has the most adorable lookin' ears and give it a ton of character, I love it. BTW, If there's a way to stagger the beam effect to come out of each cannon sequentially instead of all at once I think that'd look real slick! :D

I'll definitly ask the friends I run the tables with to keep this on their radar and hopefully pick it up down the road when that C3 mount hits the black. Thanks for whipping this together boss

@TastyButts

I'd imagine that's down the pipe with the C3 stuff they're working on! should be hella hype ^-^

If there's smaller stuff you'd wanna check out, HEAT has some fun smaller mounts by Hello_There, but I'm pretty sure you would've seen those by now~

cool mod with decent damage, use it on my skirmish scenarios. can you make also smaller beam turrets for frigates & destroyers? that'd be more cool
