Paragon Industries presents its newest technology- powered by WeaponCore...

The PGI-X Beam Cannon
Capable of tearing through grids at a large range with a huge bolt of plasma, this new superweapon is sure to pack a punch on your cruisers and capitals!

Requires 4 large reactors at full power for 5 minutes to charge this weapon to fire-ready!

Technical stuff
Grid limit: 1 per grid (subgrids included)
Max power draw: 1200MW
Required charge 100MWh (displayed as 360000MW in terminal)
Damage: 1,000,000 over 25m radius
Travel speed: 2000 m/s

Components
SteelPlate x 25000
Construction component x 2800
Large steel tube x 200
Motor x 2200
Superconductor x 3000
Computer x 3500
Bulletproof glass x 100
Beam cannon research x 10 (custom component, comes with mod)

Beam cannon research component requires Platinum x 100, Gold x 200, 50 x Silver, 100 x Iron

Known issues
Gun takes 10 minutes to charge in creative as well as survival. I'd like to mitigate this by creating a laser with a very small charge time for creative as a seperate mod.

Values subject to change. Model will eventually be updated. Please leave feedback! This weapon probably isn't a good idea to build in survival, but you can do it anyway. Building the beam cannon will require a special new component named "Beam Cannon Research" accessable in the assembler. The cannon requires 10 of these and a whole load of steel plates - about 25 thousand of them. Good luck.

That is a horridly long reload time... but it makes it balanced that way.

VS-lockon May 4, 2023 @ 8:12am 
no he cant

Can you please make a version that does NOT Require Weapon-Core? Using Weapon core cuts off a lot of different weapon mods that do not support it, and WC Breaking the mods (Like disabling Turret AI and such)

" creator promised it would do." :lunar2019laughingpig::lunar2019laughingpig::lunar2019laughingpig:

omg get off it. It hasn't been updated since 2020, calm down and find another mod. Wortho got busy with a lot of other life stuff, he doesn't owe you anything

it doesn't even fire for me and I used everything that it requires, all different variations & still nothing.
This definitely needs to be reworked and fixed to deal the damage it's creator promised it would do.
