Post Dropship with "aimable" Gun
I figured out a way to make dropships with aimable guns (Firing to the left or to the right) by putting an emitter (a copy paste of shooks MG Drone) on the door and changing rotation angle of the door, I have included a dropship with 1 gun and a dropship with 2 guns

Any ideas what this could be good for?

Cool concept, but not too awesome unless you use it right. Now you can just shoot in two directions. I'm still waiting for proper DS turrets : D

Woohoo!! I remember some things like this popping up in the last builds. Hopefully this opens up even more possibilities with crafts as assault vehicles.

Thanks for this Se7en

It seems that if you made the door move slowly, you could "sweep" the fire back and forth.

General CC question: If you press the open/close button while the doors are still opening or closing, do they reverse, or do the doors have to go all the way open or close before you can move them again?

I think they reverse but I haven't got any loaded that are slow enough to check properly.

All this needs is a few armour plates whacked on, a gun sprite moulded onto the hatches, have them aim down to clear the immediate area for deployment, so they sweep the surrounding area as the hatches open for deployment - maybe have them open slightly wider than the original dropship.

EDIT: Loike this, forgive the spriting.

Sounds good.
Deserves to be it's own mod.

Sadly, it'll be obsolete by B21.

I don't think you understand- it's not. See the first post? Notice the 'copypaste from Shook's drone' bit? That means that no, it's not. And even before that, there was the A-4.
So no.
