Modular Sword Blocks

Description
This mod does not give character swords
I made this mod from a request and to challenge myself to get better textures and model design. This mod is only cosmetic, though could be used for weaponizing your ship with passive super hard bladed designs on your ship.

Upon further testing this damascus steel has proven to be quite the armor boost, it is recommended for use on military armoring projects, though it could prove costly to line ships with this material.

To be fixed:
-mount points
-balance to weight/strength - WIP


Hope you all enjoy!

If this could be updated... *Megazord intensifies* Also I am pretty sure vanilla takes into speed of the blocks when determining damage, as well as durability.

oh yea, just noticed the last update was in 2017.
still good for aesthetics and armour against ranged though

there have been many changes to durability and block interactions since 2017, I have not looked at this mod in a long time as this was made as a request. It is very likely that block to block damage based on block durability has changed making damage to each other not as effective as it once was.

was just playing around with this mod. ironically the blocks had a hard time with melee attacks as they almost always broke against light armour, compared to a railgun round doing next to nothing. (they also make big craters when the rotor swinging them breaks and throws the blade behind it lol)

not really with the way drills work and eat ore and only a few drop out

I had the idea of doing something like this as a very small-radius no-power drill, so you could make things like shovel excavators and bulldozers. Is that even possible?

I do think something like that could be possible with weapon core and making the blocks resistant to damage, hmm

I just got a sudden urge to make a samurai ship, I remember this being awesome block mod to do melee ships with. Btw, I'm wondering if it's possible to make a melee block system that would work something like this:

You place a "melee base" block on your ship. This block would act like a super fast piston or rotor to swing a sword on it.

The melee base block would on accept "melee blocks" that would look something like what is in this mod.

Any damage done to the melee blocks gets either repaired or negated by the "melee base" block if they are connected to that base block (and it consumes energy, of course).

The damage would either be repaired with components or just energy.

Yes this mod is working fine, all blocks are functional and they show in a group under the main block of the mod

does anybody know if this mod still works?
