Closed as the configs do not reflect energy as ammo.

This mod causes a graphics card crash when scrolling down the spawn menu. I only loaded this mod onto a empty world. My card is a RTX 3060, but dont suspect that is an issue. I have no other problems with the card or the game.

Also the gattling turrets sometines load a few meters away from their original position. they are still connected, but float. ill DM you a screenshot

Hi, I have just tested the mod in creative and immediately noticed some issues. The Gatling/PDC/Missile Turrets (which happens to be the ones using vanilla ammo) were fine, but the Autocannon and Railgun (which happens to be the ones using custom ammo) were not. The Railguns won't shoot, won't even respond to the 'control' button. Autocannon shoot, but the projectiles deal no damage at all. Can you please have a look into that?

Edit: Forget about my comment on the Autocannon pls. It is actually fine, it's just that the animation is so 'quiet' that I thought it wasn't dealing any damage. The Railgun problem occurs only on the single mounted version, not the twin one.

Warfare PF556 Gatling Turret won't accept ammo as it says "Ammo Deals No Vanilla Damage! Might Have Custom Behavior".

How do I cycle ammo type for railgun turret?

@Substicious

I'm getting this type of error in my log, and the game crashes. Usually when in combat and taking/dealing damage (probably to the turret in question). Not sure if I'm just running out of memory.

Also, don't have the error handy, but audio for some of the turrets (PF556 gatling, Oerlikon, and Rarden I think) says their sound files need to be in mono but two channels were detected. I'll post next time I skim the log and see an example.

I haven't used the alternative railgun ammo for this mod, but for a similar vanilla mod that added options for the artillery turret, they said the game by default doesn't recognize ammo types. So you have to manually take the ammo out of the turret's inventory and put your desired type into the turret inventory.

However, the guns will have to fire off whatever ammo they already have loaded into the gun chamber itself before it reloads the next round from the turret inventory b/c there is no unload/reload function. Since railguns only have a "magazine" of 1 round, the new ammo type in turret inventory will be loaded after the next shot.

I will stand corrected if it's different for this mod.

For the railguns, you have to manually remove and add ammo to cycle unfortunately

That is odd. Ill have a look at the mesh for the Invalid Triangle as never got this before.

In terms of the sounds the audio files used for the guns are Keens own definitions, so you would think the audio would be fine. Ill see if i can mono them out and include within the mod.

Ha ha yes, as much as I enjoy and support Keen's work on SE, some of the behavior and weird code interactions that have persisted for years can be frustrating.

I haven't made time to test only your mod in a blank world, so it may not be your mod -- there may be some other mod conflict/interaction going on with the audio. I don't have any other weapon mods loaded in my current game though. I should probably do that before making you have to do extra work! Will report back.

Alright thanks guys!

I am not sure what the cause is, but I am using the "Warfare PF556 Gatling Turret" on a small grid however, I am unable to give it the "Gatling Ammo Box". It isn't pulling it from the cargo and I am unable to move it to the turret manually.
