People have attempted to do this in the past, but they always used rocket code instead of DS code, plus, to fire the weapons, one usually has to press S on the keyboard rather than being able to aim and click with them mouse.

So my question is: Why doesnt anyone just use DS code so you can actually take time to aim, and why dont you delete the DS hatch opening code and replace it with a weapon code?

Hmm..

You may want to learn more about CC modding before you go about pouring forth your ideas on the boards. Your idea, while ambitious, is not possible.

Pretty much all of the innovative mods are extremely hacky, meaning they ultilize current code elements in very clever ways, with the goal of circumventing CC modding limitations.

I'll leave this open because I'm tired and this is likely to be a poor decision. But hey, if anyone wants to input more into the topic, go ahead.

Yeah, the A-4 was one of the ones I was talking about. The other one was a UFO. Dammit, Data, change to code so we can do gunships!

Data doesn't make CC with the modders in mind, his instance name swapping is evidence enough of that.

When I hear about the turrets and attachables, at first I thought a dropship with an aimable gun would be possible. Sadly, it isn't.
However, the body of a dropship on four massive legs with a huge cannon is possible hint hint.
