Torpedo Launcher

Description
The Torpedo Launcher

The Torpedo Launcher is a vanilla-based static rocket launcher with a low rate of fire and high damage per hit. It's balanced against the vanilla Rocket Launcher, with its niche being that it provides slightly less DPS at longer range (1400 meters).

The Torpedo Launcher fires a Torpedo every 2 seconds, and it has a volley of 7 shots. A single Torpedo does a lot more damage than a single Rocket, and it has double the blast radius. As with rockets, this static weapon has a much higher rate of fire than its turret version, and it's very satisfying to use.

This mod is ready for use in survival. It contains build stages and all LODs, balanced material costs, and has been certified as fun to use by my friends.

Note: Not for WeaponCore. Might behave unexpectedly if used with WeaponCore. This is a vanilla weapon.

* The explosion damage formula is non-linear, and increasing the explosion radius seems to reduce the damage in certain scenarios (and increase it in others), so this value is extremely inaccurate, and is only included for reference. As a result, I am unable to calculate the DPS accurately. Instead, I verified the damage empirically, and found that the two weapons perform similarly in combat tests.


This model took me a long time to make! Please don't reupload or redistribute my assets without permission.

can you update so it works with Guided Vanilla Rockets (Vanilla+)

Do they track?

This, and your other weapon mods, really are perfectly modelled. Honestly, Keen should pay you to let them add these to the base game!

In that vein... i humbly request permission to include this, the turret version, the Hailstorm and the Coilgun turret into a weapon-pack I'm tinkering with. (altered stats, Vanilla+ Guided Torpedoes...) I'd credit you as the maker within the block description, and link back to your profile.

I just want to commend you for your mod description. Should be used as an example for all.

way to make this work with https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3155672714&searchtext=homing+vanilla%2B ?

@Bastilian Не мог бы ты мне его скинуть пожалуйста?

Hey, i made a copy of your mod, just for my personal use for my privat savegame. I made it compatible with Vanilla+ Framework so it has guided torpedoes.

send me an pm if you want a copy of the srcipt

was wondering how difficult it would be to have this work with the Guided Vanilla Rockets mod? as could be a cool extension to have the Torps track locked on targets

@sekacek4000 From what I understand of it, the vanilla+ framework doesn't interfere with anything this mod needs. It should be fine. But I haven't tested it.
sekacek4000 20 Dec, 2023 @ 8:18am 
is this theoretically compatible with Vanilla+ Framework?
