[A17] More Vanilla Turrets (v1.8.5 29/5/2017)

[Marnador]

But, but, the most important ....... Did the boomrat complex is updated ? xDDD

Thank you man

Opps forgot about that one =p

[gameismyname]

For some reason, I can't get this mod to load.  Is it buried in a research tree somewhere? Or am I just missing something?

[Rathael]

Yes, it needs research.

Fantastic mod, probably my favourite one out there.
Especially love how it follows the vanilla aesthetic.
The one qualm I have is that the Rocket Complexes ought to take some kind of ammunition (shells).

I would also suggest that the firing time be increased to 40-60 seconds to bring it in line with the default (and somewhat useless) mortar, since it is far superior.
Another small quirk is that devastator is spelt wrongly (devestator).
I think the precision turrets are still quite overpowered in terms of damage. Maybe 30 is better? Or else make the reload time around 10 seconds.

I was able to edit all of the above to my preferences except the ammunition taking.
Figured it out

I edited your mod heavily to my preference, thank you for making such a great mod!

EDIT 2:

You have to research turret cooling first(as mentioned on the first post) after all it follows vanilla progression.

I agree I do need to take a look and balance it a bit more, adding new ammunition would be tricky unless I'll try to let it use mortar shells somehow.

Opps! good eye, I'll fix it asap.

I worked with a dps chart so it shouldn't be that bad considering the fact that m24 already does 40 damage a shot, plus when people get close to it it's aim goes down the drain and it doesn't have the armor to take on melee squads, its only good for one thing... and that is long range everything else about it shouldn't be that good.

Your welcome we all play like we want, I only put out the basics, anyone can change whatever they feel like if it fits their game style a bit more.

1.4b is a minor typo fix, it bugged me so much that I just HAD to fix it.

This is a great mod! Esp looking forward the boomrat update! In alpha 8 it was quite devestating. Can we get maybe two levels of boomrat?

Two levels as in two variations?

[Marnador]

I worked on a little something and its not a turret D: yes been done a billion times before I know but ah well there is my variation.
Tried making the texture connect as seamless as possible, even made its own little custom blueprint atlas to go with it
Shallow moat, it wont block the enemy completely but slow it down dramatically, and yes they can stand on those to return fire if needed unlike sandbags.
Should this be a separate download or just a part of the mod? if there is a demand for this to be included at all.

Excellent stuff Marnador! +1 from me.

Definitely an interest. I have the DefendThatColony! mod that adds moats, but they have a kind of strange graphic that doesn't quite fit with the in-game water, and the path cost is 500, which I feel is a little over-the-top.

Well I assume that's because his are meant to be impassible.
Mine are slightly different so even if you have both of the mods they shouldn't interfere with each-other as they both serve different purpose

[erebus2075]

this looks awesome

[StorymasterQ]

For the shallow moat, I would absolutely love it if the requirements for its placing is that it has to be next to a body of water or another shallow moat.

That means it's just a ditch that you flow water into. Possible?

I like this mod, but base for vulcan cannon I changed for myself. If interesting, I attached it . I found this image in google  (seems like it's some gizmo) and slightly changed and corrected. not a perfect job of course, but it looks like not bad
