Grapple Hook (In Development)

Description
Have you ever felt like pulling your friends leg out from under him as he reaches for the bag of chips you hid on the top shelf? We at googiversity understand your pain, though the technology of sticky rope has been around for generations, the poor masses found themselves alone and full of sadness, unable to share this wonder of technology with their friends. That, my fellow spring force enjoyers, ends today!

Introducing the "Elite-Turbo-Ultra Gigga-Chad, totally not a dangerous harpoon, Grapple Hook 6000". With this slick piece of engineering, there will be nothing but smiles and sunshine for all the good boys and girls! Get you very own taste of vertigo on our patented rope swing! If that's not good enough, try out the bungee jumping extravaganza. There has never been a better time to repossess your uncle Richy's car, or fly over main street with a billboard of your sisters embarrassing yearbook photos and memorable quotes from her goth faze journal entries.

The possibilities are endless, but not our supply, so get it today before its too late!

WARNING! This product is known in the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects. Use at your own risk.


A few things to be aware of:

Yes other block variants are planned but not a current priority. SoonishTM

There are settings to reel in/out and detach in the terminal and hotbar actions. there is a bug where sometimes it does not load properly. try saving and reloading in different locations and situations.

This mod was created for "The Last Bastion" server which is hosting weekly events on Sundays. Feel free to join and experience a completely overhauled version of space engineers.

Hope this can develop to some winch-like thingy. Really needs some ropes or chains in SE.

What is the reach of this harpoon? Do you also plan on allowing the turret to recall its harpoon if it doesn't hit anything? It seems rather annoying to see the harpoon just get deleted when missing something

As described, after a restart of the session/server the controls might be available and do work.
I'm very new to the whole SE modding stuff but I noticed that maybe, just maybe, the controls are created too early in the init chain of the game session. I have yet to try if binding the controls after the session is ready and ensuring these are bound using a flag will solve this issue.

So this mod still technically works. You can shoot stuff and grapple it. But it's only single-use. After you hooked something up, you can't cut the rope. If you delete or grind what you grappled onto, the turret won't reload.

So in order to use this you mount it to your ship or base and if you grappled onto something you have to delete/grind the turret in order to be able to fire it again. Of course all interactions are broken as well.

Seems like the terminal/hotbar controls are broken post-Contact update.

you guys could always just subscribe to the mod and find out yourselves. If you don't like it, just unsubscribe and the mod will disappear from your list.

Welp, that's an interesting word-vomit in the description. Doesn't clearly say if it's a weapon or something decorative, all up for interpretation.

Could have provided *some* info beside the flavor text
