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.

H i how to remove a hook while you control the turret? or is that not possible?
Tactical-Ferrets 27 Oct, 2024 @ 7:52pm 
any update on bug fixing? also, whats the max range?
Doomgoose 24 Oct, 2024 @ 6:29am 
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

because everything seems to cause cancer and birth defects in California XD
Hikari 17 Oct, 2024 @ 7:47pm 
What's up with the cancer warning?
Dozz 15 Oct, 2024 @ 12:18pm 
when you have the time to update and fix artillery turret bug, that would be great!
Jolly 15 Oct, 2024 @ 6:52am 
Clouds looks like a Skybox. I'm sure it would look awkward in space.
thesnowfox84 14 Oct, 2024 @ 10:13pm 
a harpoon cannon? a must have for anyone RPing as Reavers I'll be keeping an eye on this
EpicSOB 14 Oct, 2024 @ 5:37pm 
i would also like to know how you got clouds?
Palpatine 10 Oct, 2024 @ 4:32pm 
Kinda off topic but how did you guys do that cloud in the background?
CynicDragon 8 Oct, 2024 @ 1:38am 
Awful mod description, gives no intel

how to unhook the hook
Heavyweapons 24 Sep, 2024 @ 9:10am 
There is currently a bug that replaces the artillery turret with the grapple hook turret making it unusable.
Dying Dark Star 20 Sep, 2024 @ 9:34pm 
can we get more screenshots? maybe a vid to show the mod in action?
CosmicAggressor 17 Sep, 2024 @ 5:45am 
Excellent now I can tow my disabled foes back to base to be salvaged.
Dysmn 4 Sep, 2024 @ 2:26pm 
What is going on with that second screenshot?
WHAT THE SIGMA

mfw a mod does what keen promised and failed to deliver nearly 10 years ago.
Bagel 18 Aug, 2024 @ 6:18pm 
Are there any instructions for use anywhere? This doesn't seem to be able to fire from the control view, only when you use "shoot once," which means you can't aim...
MikeXS 13 Aug, 2024 @ 1:29am 
Very very funny and even more usefull. As so i replaced my ship anchor with a downwards grapple hook S!

THE FREAKIN DESCRIPTION
I'M DYING

I'm going to install this mod just because of the description
Snogus 6 Aug, 2024 @ 9:12am 
WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS-er, I mean, great mod!
Turtleman1000 6 Aug, 2024 @ 5:50am 
Description is top-notch
♥♥♥♥-a-cola 6 Aug, 2024 @ 5:46am

the clouds have been improved. they are physical objects and block visibility.
Darian Stephens 4 Aug, 2024 @ 9:55pm 
I've been wondering about this 'Sky Pirates' thing, particularly those low-poly clouds.
Are they just part of the skybox, or real physical things that move and change, maybe can be visited and flown through?
Gauge  [author] 4 Aug, 2024 @ 7:58pm 
lol, that's a hot take if i have ever read one :D

Don't go looking at any of the other mods I've made. I would hate for your fragile world to implode.
Apollo Norm 4 Aug, 2024 @ 5:16pm 
no like it's reloading for minutes at a time and then doesnt fire when I click > goes back to reloading
Gauge  [author] 4 Aug, 2024 @ 5:07pm 
20 second reload time. i need to add a better indicator. I am waiting on several block designs before i make more improvements.
Apollo Norm 4 Aug, 2024 @ 4:45pm 
it's just stuck on "reloading" and can't fire anymore

HAHAHAHAHA Best mod author description all time. 10000000000000000000000000000/10 wp LMFAO *standing ovation*
SlashWonder 4 Aug, 2024 @ 8:35am 
I really like this idea. I wonder if you can tweak it just a bit to be tow cables or mooring lines.
alexsystem 1 Aug, 2024 @ 11:08am 
In the general G-menu on the "weapon blocks" tab, I do not see my artillery turret, but in place of this Grapple hook.
All that's left of my common artillery turret is a picture. Please bring it back))
The mod generally works. It would be good if it were possible to cut the cable with a grinder. And also so that you can pull up your prey like a fish on a fishing rod)
Gauge  [author] 29 Jul, 2024 @ 2:06pm 
check the terminal controls/hotbar actions.

there is a bug where sometimes it doesn't load properly.
Joe Wick-ed 29 Jul, 2024 @ 12:33pm 
is there an option to reel targets?
Astro_Alphard 21 Jul, 2024 @ 5:22pm 
How to we reel in our targets?
Abisius Xarvenius Carbensius 14 Jul, 2024 @ 4:38am 
just for info a quote form the alst wc changelog:
"Whitelisted Gauge's grappling hook turret"
this means wc is no longer removing it without using the unsupported mode.
Abisius Xarvenius Carbensius 14 Jul, 2024 @ 4:37am 
@Pufferfish 120
wc is removing nonwc weaponbased stuff due to it not havig a working ai while wc is loaded ad there was in the past a literal flood about it and as far as it was explained it has to do with how se handles weaponframeworks.

while you can use "/wc unsupportedmode" to keep wc from removing that stuff it wont change that nonwc stuff wont have a working ai.

besides that wc absed ammunitions cant be interceptet by nonwc weapons and vise versa.
there is a whitelist from wc side that lists weaponbased stuff that is just a tool and most of them didnt even have an ai to work to begin with.
