Updated for Contact.

Found my mistake, the Configurable Parameters Mod had a Weapons Tab I overlooked, to configure the AI ranges.
Thanks for your help, have a nice day, and the Mod is great, will keep it, for the custom Turret controller and the removed bullet drop. :)

Yes you are right, I tried it in a private world, and it works great, thanks!
Adding the mod, after the world was created is certainly not the problem, so it must be another mod, or the Torch server Plugins.

Thanks for your quick response!

Strange, do you happen to have any other mods that could be affecting vanilla turrets?
Cannot reproduce the issue on a world with just this mod - it works fine for me.

If it continues to happen, try following the instructions in the link from my previous comment.

Can't reproduce the issue - works fine on a new world with just this mod. Try following this guide: https://github.com/THDigi/SE-ModScript-Examples/wiki/Fix-download-corruption

Very strange, I'll look into this. It might be a corrupted download, not sure why only part of the mod would work since it's just a few simple .sbc edits.

This mod sadly doesn't appear to work any more. I created a save with the mod (and only this mod) and installed various turrets onto my creation. The mod works correctly for the Custom Turret Controller, that does indeed now go out to 2000m. However, for any of the standard turrets when I go to adjust the "AI Aiming radius" it's still maxing out at just 600m.

Understood! Thank you.

Unfortunately that is correct, as far as I'm aware.
A script that sets weapon ranges on NPC grid spawn would be required to fix the issue.

Hello! I think this has been asked, but this mod does not affect any NPC weapons right? An enemy spawning from MES or EEM wouldnt have 2 km range by default?

Yep, this mod should always work unless Keen does something really drastic with turret targeting.

Does this still work?

Fixed weapons aren't affected, e.g. a vanilla fixed artillery cannon would already go out to 2000m with or without the mod.

oh ok :) was thinkig it only affets the turreted versions ^^ because u know ... the mods name :P but good to know all weapons are affected :) thanks for the answer

I don't quite follow, fixed weapons already fire out to the maximum range of turrets in this mod.

is there any chance u make a range mod for the non turreted versions?

Ok, I'll try. Thanks a lot for giving me something to work with.

You could try "Projectile" instead, unfortunately no clue if that works though.

Alright, thank you. Just to be certain we're clear, the mod doesn't need missiles edited. I'm not sure what the other weapons initially based themselves on before the update. Some barrow the gatling gun model, but there are three other variants with different shooting speeds.

So is there an alternative suggestion to the word "Missile" in the tag?

Yes, I'll give an example for the vanilla rocket projectile. You'll need to edit ammos.sbc and add the <MissileGravityEnabled>false</MissileGravityEnabled> tag to all missile type weapons. Gatling type weapons cannot have their drop enabled as far as I know, but I'll look into it sometime soon.

<Ammo xsi:type="MyObjectBuilder_MissileAmmoDefinition">
!...many lines skipped...!
<MissileProperties>
<MissileMass>45</MissileMass>
<MissileExplosionRadius>4</MissileExplosionRadius>
<MissileModelName>Models\Weapons\Projectile_Missile.mwm</MissileModelName>
<MissileAcceleration>600</MissileAcceleration>
<MissileInitialSpeed>100</MissileInitialSpeed>
<MissileSkipAcceleration>false</MissileSkipAcceleration>
<MissileExplosionDamage>500</MissileExplosionDamage>
<MissileTrailEffect>Smoke_Missile</MissileTrailEffect>
<MissileGravityEnabled>false</MissileGravityEnabled> <!--This is the tag.-->
</MissileProperties>
</Ammo>

Is it easy to learn how to remove projectile dropping? There's a Star Wars weapons mod that used to shoot straight, but since Warfare II doesn't anymore (except the missiles) and it drives me crazy.

Here it is, this took far too long for me to get around to, but it's done.

I'll make a version without the drop removal in the next few days.

i wish there was a version if this that didnt remove drop xD it would be perfect for my purpose then

Yes, as stated in the description.

• SG Turret Controller 600m -> 2000m
• LG Turret Controller 800m -> 2000m

Does this also apply for the custom turret control block?

@watermelon_guy What is the link to your bug report? I'd love to give it a thumbs up as I think its one of the most annoying issues currently facing weapons right now.

Does this also do modded weapons too? I love using the Vulcan but the distance is now 800m in game

This makes bad guys MUCH more dangerous if they have Warfare guns!

I was going to have to use Weaponcore if i wanted to do any PvE in this game again, until I saw this mod. Thank you. It is people like you who make SE worth playing.

Gotcha. Thanks for the response. I may actually increase the projectile speed of the ammo, which i'm pretty sure would reduce the bullet drop.

This mod disables projectile drop on the rifles but I don't remember if it actually worked, I believe all non-missile weapons are hard coded to have projectile drop.

But I think I may use this or part of it. Do you by chance know if character rifles can also be edited, in terms of projectile drop?

I've been unhappy with the bullet drop mechanics. Disregarding the issues that some turrets have with the AI not adjusting for it, I still think there is too much drop. Imo, Keen should either increase projectile speeds or reduce the affect gravity has on them.

I submitted a feedback ticket a few days ago if anyone agrees and wants to express that by giving it a thumbsup ;)

I love you

The fact that the lead indicator does not take into account gravity for the assault cannon, artillery and railgun is a bug. My bug report was reviewed and sent to the development team. When I saw this mod, I thought it would just fix this bug. Unfortunately, it just gets rid of the effect, not the cause

You are nominated for SAINTHOOD!

Have seen now that the autocannons also still have drop. But big guns still fine :D

Ok thanks honey :D
Thanks lot for helping

@Julia
Hm, sorry, not sure what to do - seems like gatling projectiles may be hard coded to always have bullet drop.

@Maz
WeaponCore is an entirely different system, so neither this mod nor any other mod not explicitly labeled as WeaponCore will affect it.

Take My Points

AWESOME I Was Hoping Somebody Would Do This Thank You

Anyone know if this works with the WeaponCore - Replace Vanilla Weapons mod?

I had set it to false.
For example i show you how it looks here:

</Ammo>
<Ammo xsi:type="MyObjectBuilder_ProjectileAmmoDefinition">
<Id>
<TypeId>AmmoDefinition</TypeId>
<SubtypeId>LargeCaliber</SubtypeId>
</Id>
<BasicProperties>
<DesiredSpeed>1000</DesiredSpeed>
<SpeedVariance>0</SpeedVariance>
<MaxTrajectory>2500</MaxTrajectory>
<BackkickForce>200</BackkickForce>
<PhysicalMaterial>GunBullet</PhysicalMaterial>
</BasicProperties>
<ProjectileProperties>
<ProjectileTrailScale>0.1</ProjectileTrailScale>
<ProjectileHitImpulse>2</ProjectileHitImpulse>
<ProjectileMassDamage>90</ProjectileMassDamage>
<ProjectileHealthDamage>33</ProjectileHealthDamage>
<HeadShot>true</HeadShot>
<MissileGravityEnabled>false</MissileGravityEnabled>
</ProjectileProperties>
</Ammo>

Did you set the tag to <MissileGravityEnabled> true </MissileGravityEnabled>, or did you set it to false ? I only sent the true tag so it could be found in a search. Setting it to false will disable drop - I didn't really word my first message right.

I tried to add the gravity thing into <SubtypeId>SmallCaliber + PistolCaliber + LargeCaliber + the others but still drops. Maybe u or i find it out one day. Don't stress :) And thanks again very much :D

Huh, didn't think that gatlings had drop. If it has the no gravity tag removing it might fix it (or vice versa, not sure what you have atm), or it may be hard coded into gatling type weapons which would be odd but not unexpected with this update. Next time i'm on SE i'll test all of this - i haven't messed with the vanilla weapons all that much recently and its mostly been with the new guns.

Ohh yes. Thank you. For big guns its working but not for the gatlings? Testing one with bullet range 2.5km but they are droping. Any hints?
