'Death Lotus' Cluster Bomb (w4stedspace)

Description
The world to accompany the attached video from my YouTube channel!

Revisiting my old weapon systems in a potentially final combo-variant also including projectors.. the end result is the 'Death Lotus' Cluster bomb. Creating a cloud of decoys and warheads as it flies to protect the main 3-part warhead which breaches and then presents a large cluster of warheads to the target.. (last bit isn't perfect, need more sensor range to complete the full 180!)

Usage:

PLEASE watch the video first!
Change ownership of all ships to yourself. This will mean placing a control panel on the decoy/merge blueprint and changing ownership and then removing it.
Create blueprints of both red merge block + warhead/decoy things.
Load decoys in front projector and position 1 block further forward than the front merge ring.
Load warheads in rear projector and position 1 block further forward than the front merge ring.
Get 10km away, aim at target, start "Launch" timer. Rofl.

It's possible to launch this without doing any of the above also, it will just be a little more difficult to adjust down the line. If you want to play around for different effects try adjusting the 'Spin' Gyro rotation speed and Weld Timer duration.

For more information about how it works please watch the attached video above.

If you found this interesting or helpful please consider visting my YouTube channel for more Space Engineers tutorials, guides and videos.

Thanks! Still working on ways to improve it (on version 4 now) so appreciate the feedback :)

should replace two of the decoy parts with bombs so that it is more affective and so you don't waste as much resources on the heeps of decoys that are left behind. really good idea though
