You know, it's funny. I was already working on that privately.

You can either do it yourself Abdul [you will do a better job than I will] or I could post it here when I finish.

I managed to get it to fire from separate barrels by using the TDExplosive method of recoil negation combined with the use of a tracer of exactly the same gibs but on an offset. It works pretty good, actually. It's similar to the 5 barrel machinegun, but asymmetrical.
Clever solution, numbers. This might come in handy some time.

If you posted your solution here it would be much appreciated.

I'm all done. I don't think I broke anything too much; but if I did then whatever, it still works.
It sits on top of the water like a boat when you put it in sentry, but now when you are in charge or the AI is actually moving it around, it will hover above the water. Everything is in if statements so if there isn't any water, it won't freak out and stop working on you.

Take a look.

I love your mods Abdul! Good as always.

The turrets are an interesting implementation, and I'd say are pretty badass, but aren't exactly vehicles, ey? :P


Also,

I thought the turret looked familiar, is it based off of this dummy heavy's weapon? Image
and will we ever get that update!

Only got one issue with the nailer turret.

It's concrete base is shaped such that aiming downward to its maximum degree will cause the lower barrel to shoot nails into the concrete, limiting the effectiveness of the turret further as the nails get in the way of the additional shots.

Not sure exactly what caused it, but now whenever I call in an armed dropship all rendered frames of the guns will remain, so I leave two intangible gray trails across the sky whenever I fly the thing. I tried redownloading, still does it.

Edit: Only seems to happen when I have "Air Support.rte" (Gunships/UAVs) active with it.

Thanks for the bug-report. I will have a fix for this soon.

I got it too,I have air support as well.I was scared that it wasn't just a visual trail.I thought that the trail was actually the machine guns cloning themselves so I thought that if an enmy dropship would come,it would be DESTRUCTIFIED into a billion pieces by the GLORIOUS UPWARDS RAIN OF BULLETS. :P

So yeah, me and Abdul figured out a way to make the wheels not settle, aswell as for it to generally just float over terrain and not dig huuuge pits.
In EDV.rte/Armored Car/Armored Car.ini, add this:
Code:
AddEffect = MOSRotating
   PresetName = APCWheel
   Mass = 50
>>>MissionCritical = 1 <<<
   GlobalAccScalar = 0.5
   AirResistance = 0.015
   RestThreshold = -100000
   HitsMOs = 1
   GetsHitByMOs = 1
   SpriteFile = ContentFile
      FilePath = EDV.rte/ArmoredCar/Wheel.bmp
   FrameCount = 1
   SpriteOffset = Vector
      X = -13
      Y = -13

The armored car feels a LOT better and becomes a very fun thing to have, less terrain digging, no wheels settling, smoother driving etc.

MissionCritical? Like the chip thingy in Zombie Cave?
