WeaponCore - 2.5

Description
Version: CoreSystems - 2.5(25)

Weapon Core is a complete rewrite of Space Engineers combat system. The way combat works in this system is very different from Vanilla and many conventions that you are familiar with will be different.

This "mod" by itself does not add new weapons to the game, it is the framework (engine) by which other weapon mod authors may create pretty much any kind of weapon they can imagine.

This mod will convert all of the default vanilla weapons to WC versions. In addition it will remove any incompatible third party weapon blocks from the world, unless you override this behavior in game.

Step 2: Create fresh world, adding only the WeaponCore (No Other Mods!)

Step 3: Create two simple grids, each with a station terminal, gatling turret and reactor. Make sure they are in range of each other and of enemy factions.

Incompatibility
The WC team and many other mod authors receive a constant stream of "bug reports" and confused users due to inherent incompatibilities between WeaponCore and mods based on Vanilla weapons.

If you have incompatible third party weapon blocks in your worlds, are willing to accept loss of functionality and instability you can enable UnsupportedMode by typing "/wc unsupportedmode" in the chat console or by editing the mods world config file.

There is a "ThirdParty whitelist" for known compatible mods, e.g: Beam Drill mod by Gwin.

there is nothing that can be done about it from modderside as its caused from either se side or steam side or the conneciton between server and workshop servers or th efiles handling the communication.
i linked to some additional steps that can be done to alleviate it that are pinned on the wc discord, though if its a third party host you might need to go through the support for them.

i have a HostHavoc server myself, and have tried a bunch of possible fixes, but it just keeps comming up with this info and won´t start the server properly..
if i remove ANY mod it says is failing, it just puts a new one up, but it seems to be focused on Weapon Core..

the "2025-08-17 11:05:07.100 - Thread: 28 -> Workshop item with id 3154371364 download finished. Result: k_EResultFail" is usually caused by a connection problem and in rare cases by file corruption but in that case it happening with all mods as it would be a serverside file corruption of the files facilitating the mod integrety check or connection to the workshop servers.
it is usually gone after a while, but if that isnt the case you will need to do some more steps that aree inside a pinned post on the wc discord https://discord.com/channels/804196269072711720/805169009384226866/998607335889051668 , just keep in mind that if its via a third party host its possible you need to do them via the support.

@Justducky2407
as its always a possibility:
did you check for file corruption?

if you already did that please take logs and an example world and report in on the wc discord with an as good as possiblke explanation of what isnt working.
