# Additions

- Twine Missile Turret
Serpent Arms, Gauss-Based Weapon System; Long-Range Missile Pattern
Range: 5km
Salvo: 8 , 2 launches per Tube per Salvo fired in Pairs
Magazines Loaded 8 : 1 per Magazine, Reload of 6.6 seconds.
Heavy Armor Modifier : 0.55 (45% Reduced Damage)
AMS HP per Missile: 2
* A Light missile Turret, allowing the main SA Build to supply at least one turreted missile without the expansion packs.

- Chaff Launcher
Serpent Arms, Gauss-Based Launch System, replicates and launches two kinds of chaff projectiles.
Salvo: 3 , 3~ Second Delay
Ammunition : Self-Generated
Chaff Missile : High-HP Projectile, draws fire from AMS units in proximity
Chaff Jammer : Radiates Tracking-Scrambling pulse around itself once deployed for several seconds, robbing missiles of target data
* With the increase of missiles post main release, an dynamic defensive approach seemed warranted in the stock SA Build.

# Fixes

- Fixed Missing Collision models for the Turrets
- BlockCat holding inactive Weapons
- Fixed inactive weapons being visible and searchable (IDs Were not removed from system, preventing block deletion)
- Cleaned up CS files to latest WeaponCore CoreParts Build
- Cleaned up Naming Conventions in CS Files
- Optimized Particle SBC, and generated new format pattern for Particle ID and Particle SubtypeID

----
