Description


This is the WeaponCore conversion of the mod by of Serža:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2841320639

Guided missiles + rocket pods for helicopters and planes!
Ammo animations! Insert ammo for visual effect first. No ammo = empty pods / racks

How to: Just lock onto target via WeaponCore while you are sitting in cockpit, put "Toggle Mouse Shoot" on your toolbar and shoot em up.

Currently Contains:
- Pylon (Merge Block) - Optional, 2 sizes. Add to helicopter or plane wing for nice looking attachment points.

- Drop tank (Warhead) - Small explosion radius. Can be detached via Pylon like a bomb.

- Hellfire AT Racks (Guided) - 4 sizes. Slow missiles against armored ground targets within 4,3km. Penetrates armor and then unleashes havoc on the insides. Great against small grid heavy armor
- AA Missile Racks (Guided) - 4 sizes. Fast missiles against evasive air targets within 7km. Will detonate within 10m of the target and fire shrapnel up to 50m towards the target in a 30 degree cone. Great against fast moving, lightly armored targets
- AIM-120D AMRAAM launcher - 1 size. Fast missiles against evasive air targets within 8.4km. The missile will climb to 2km (simulates it finding thinner air) and now has 'fuel.' When it runs out of fuel, it will continue to glide towards its target. It will detonate within 10m of the target and fire shrapnel up to 50m towards the target in a 30 degree cone. Great against fast moving, lightly armored targets. More sizes coming soon

(1x AA, 1x AT, and 1x AIM-120D have offset versions for wing-end installation!)

- Firestorm Rocket Pods (Dumbfire) - 3 sizes. Fast HE rockets with small blast radius. Shoots some shrapnel in a hemisphere up to 10 meters in front of the rocket after exploding. These rockets are affected by gravity. Range: 8km
- Guided Rockets Guided rockets for the Firestorm Rocket Pods. Good for light to medium armored enemys. Range: 4.2km

- Trinity Missile Pods (Guided) - 3 sizes. HE missiles with medium blast radius. Great against large, lightly armored enemies. Less effective against Heavy Armor. Range: 4,8km
- EMP Missiles - Attempts to disable all enemy blocks that produce power (Batteries, Reactors, etc.). Still needs balancing. Will shutdown most small grids in one shot, but takes a few shots to take down large grids. To counteract the power vs small grids, I've added a fair bit of inaccuracy and missile movement, so actually hitting the target will take a lot of luck. Large grids are large enough that the inaccuracy won't be very noticable. Feedback welcome.

- Cyclops Torpedo Pods (Guided) - 3 sizes. Slow MIRV torpedos. 500m from target will split into 7 HE missiles with devastating power. Costly to build, easy to shoot down. Range: 5,7km

AGM-65 Maverick - 2 sizes: 1x & 3x. Slow missiles against heavily armored targets within 4,3km. Penetrates armor and then unleashes havoc on the insides. Great against large grid heavy armor. Not great against things that can move fast

Internal Weapons Bay - Holds 5 AIM-120D missiles. Dimenstions are 8x3x2* (LxWxH). The bay is 2 blocks thick to prevent any blocks from being placed in the way of the doors I recommend using KeyFire with this block instead of mouse shoot, as it has a prefire animation. If you don't hold the mouse button long enough, you won't fire a missile, so that's why KeyFire is optimal here. More weapons will come in the future as well as other size variants


Coming Soon:
Pylon variations
AIM-9X Sidewinder
CBU-97 Cluster Bomb
Flares/Countermeasures
Tomahawk cruise missile
M41 Vertical Launch System
ESSM Block 2
GBU-12 Paveway II
GBU-16 Paveway
AGM-84D Harpoon

Known Bugs
Missiles will stick in place when loaded into a newly built rack or pod in survival mode. Building the rack with creative turned on does not create this issue. Reloading the world solves this issue

If you hop in my discord and can provide the crash logs I can take a look at what happened

I most likely won't add conveyor support to the regular missiles. I may add conveyors to the weapons bay, but it may not be any time soon.

The cyclops missile crashed me after i shot 4 at a ship xD

Any possibility to reload them automaticly?Not by hand?

Guided missiles and rockets - WeaponCore began to appear as a sorter

Does the Trinity Missile share some sort of same ID or whatever with the Motor? When using Isy's autocrafting script it wants to craft Trinity Missiles instead of Motors.

Is there a reason why the custom controller can't use more than one of the missiles? Or is it just me.

Update coming before the end of the year

@Tristan I have the update coming, which will reduce the guided rockets from being super tracking rockets. I'll have to play around with some settings, because in WeaponCore you need to have acceleration for a missile to track, which means no "gliding" even though that's how it works in real life. If you'd like to test things, grab the dev version and see how the changes feel

Hey could you make have the missiles realisticly? like most missiles have a burn time of like 3 seconds and then glide the rest of the way for realism so missiles cant turn much in your version missiles can do 360 degrees turns what makes it really unrealistic

update?

Nice mod. Easy and beautiful. Replaces all those overcomplicated hand-made rockets made of different SE parts, scripts, etc.
