Weapon Ranges x4

Any chance of an update for this?

Right now, I have no idea where this code is implemented. I will have a look at it, at some point.

Hi. I noticed an issue with both the light and heavy guided missile. The weapon range is increased but the lock on range is still at 3km and 5km respectively.

Thank you. I manage to do it.

First you need to make a folder inside the folder "extensions", with the same name as the mod and add it to dependencies in content.xml.

Then inside macros (\extensions\ship_mod\assets\fx\weaponFx\macros) copy the macro file with the same name and change following lines with diff replace.

Depending on if it's a beam weapon or not you change different values. Example gatling:
<diff>
<replace sel="//bullet/@speed">5760</replace>
<replace sel="//bullet/@lifetime">3.33</replace>
</diff>

The formula is: Range = Speed x Lifetime.

So you have to use it to recalculate range, speed and lifetime. Lifetime extends range, but then you also have to increase speed. For beams only replace like so:
<diff>
<replace sel="//bullet/@speed">5.99585e+08</replace>
<replace sel="//bullet/@range">17456</replace>
</diff>

How would I go about creating a compatibility for a modded ship with a new weapon? I tried following this guide I saw on reddit but I'm having trouble trying to find out what to put for the weapon range and speed for the weapon. Website link . The mod I am trying to work on is the Argon Basilisk ship mod that has a new main gun.

No worries, thanks for the response.

I can't build it in, I would have to make completely new mods for it, as VRO changes everything about weapons.

Selfish request, but would you be willing to add a patch or add a built-in comparability for the VRO mod to both your X4 and X2 range mods?

I know VRO messes with weapon range already, but it still feels a little short for my liking.

CPSDO is not from my mod and not from any compatible mods.
Only mods listed in the Build in compatibility section will work.
