Ballistic Arc and Mortars
So, we have planets. We have gravity. We have rockets, which need to be unaffected by gravity for turrets to work. We also have walled bases, and people inside whom we wish to bombard.

I guess the newest addition to the weapons wishlist is very obvious.

I brought this up in the 'Better support for weapons and modding them' thread. They'd fall under 'Lobbed' type projectiles.

This game really needs a modding API though, it's abysmal what we have to work with.

Yet another arcade addition? No thanks.
Better repair rotors/pistons and people would do what themselves.

Not following on this one.

why would the devs spend time making a weapon that's only useful for 1 thing?
Why don't you just build your own mortar instead of asking for a weapon in game?

Really we just need a new ammo type, aside from the current two (Bullet/Missile), the shell. Basically it's unpowered after being fired, is affected by gravity, and explodes. Then we can mod what ever weapons we want from there.

But we have had the same vanilla weapon selection for at least a year and a half. (Well except for the reloadable RL but that was more than overdue anyway)
I could totally get behind this. Also a more resource-heavy slightly guided rocket couldn't hurt.

They need q comprehensive projectile system, it's not just the ballistic arc.

You know I'm not a fan of vanilla guided, or stealing ideas, but at this point I'm willing to settle for a From The Depths style missile/mine/drone launcher-projector-welder.

A mortar would be fun, I could just imagine someone freaking when they randomly explode.

I like this idea, maybe a guidance system for the launcher and a guidance system for large ballistics such as ICBMs and cruise missiles. Oh and vertical launch systems :)

I'm afraid that this is the wrong thread.
