[AutoMcD] RFC Krang

Description
Vanilla Heavy Cruiser Drone for RFC2 Fleet.

- Features 8 PMW turrets (gatling array aimed via script).
- Forward fixed gatling array.
- 4 Gatling and 2 Missile turrets.
- Some self repair on core parts but overall not much.
- Huge armored wings pumped full of decoys.
- Heavily armored.

It fills the role of "heavy cruiser" pretty well in my opinion. The guns are good at taking down other heavies, but it's slow. Use other fleet ships to protect it from fighters, try to let it concentrate on eliminating the other larger threats.

There is a cockpit, access is behind the MA logo by the rear thrusters. You might have to switch off the RFC control when flying manually, otherwise it'll fight with you on everything. :)

I'd love to hear feedback, here or on discord, etc.

Updates:
11.18.17: Major Keen update, and Whiplash was ready! Turret script updated. Krang is still alive!

11.1.17:
Adjusted rotor limits a bit. The front/rear turrets have better negative angle for better coverage directly in front/rear of ship. The side turrets I reduced this so that they can't trash the front/rear guns, it actually didn't hurt coverage much. Should be good. I might reduce gat arrays to every other gun, overall reduction of 40-50% to reduce lag issue with so many gatlings firing simutaneously. If you have an opinion about this, let me know.

Updated! Thank you Whiplash for being on top of it with your turret script upkeep!

the ship from the ventral or dorsal angle kinda looks like a breen warship from trek

I have a standoff frigate with super long range MAC cannons and im scared of this ship,

I have a missile frigate of my own in the works. ;)
Also, the nice thing about RFC is that your ships don’t just sit there, hunt down the threat!

It's a nice ship, but I'm afraid that even a fleet of these will be wasted by a single guided missile gunship equipped with Radars.
