Particle Wave Cannon

Description
A huge thanks to Meridus/Lucas for the script that makes this possible. Without it I wouldn't even have been able to publish it

The Particle Wave Cannon is a large energy beam based weapon. With a range of up to 10000m it is able to penetrate most armor, and cut through asteroids.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE THE AMMO IN THE ASSEMBLER. Guns generate their own ammo

Will be adjusting this as I go. The cannon can generate it's own ammo so you don't have to worry about piping it up or building ammo. Has a high power requirement however.

UPDATES!!!

Update 1/2/20
I have finally pushed out an update to fix the small grid verde. I've also upgraded the script to Lucas' new Energy Weapon Script. Sorry it took so long to fix, I've had a lot going on since June.

Update 5/25/19
Moved scripts to newer updated script from Lucas. This should make things run smoother. Added new effect to Wave Cannon beam. Also added Shock Cannon Turrets and Shock Cannon Barrels! The turrets are 3x3x3 and 5x5x5. The barrels are 1x1x4 and 1x1x6. They do a reasonable amount of damage, but their main purpose is to potentially disable and hack grids on an enemy ship. EDIT Upped damage on the 5x5 after some feedback. the more I watched the Shock cannons in the show, the more I wanted the turrets to be able to do damage. The 5x5 no longer have the hacking or tesla damage, but have increased damage over all and increased power req.

Update 3/30/19
Upped the dps of the Particle Wave cannon by quite a bit. Won't one shot a 1mil shield, will take several hits but it will burn down a shield. Upped the damage on the Verde Beams, large and small. Also reduced their reload time to have a longer burn on them as well.


Update 3/21/29
Changed some code, thanks Lucas, to make the Particle Wave Cannon function closer to how I wanted it to. Now the Wave Cannon needs to "charge" up before fire. Will also cycle through beam colors until charge is spent. Upped the power draw of weapon to bring it close to balance.
Added new beam weapon! The Verde Beam Cannon is a smaller, less powerful weapon, available in 1x1x5 Large and Small grid versions. It draws less power, recharges faster, but does less damage. Will be tweaking this cannon as well

Update 3/17/19
Upped power requirements to 1000w, extended range to 3000




All parts are hand crafted, other than the models used from Keen

@deothor an update broke the effects for the gun so atm its just for show until the authors can either fix it or make a completely new one

Just built large grid verde beam cannon and it doesnt generate any ammo (thus cannot shoot). It does have power supply

articewolf one of the updates for space engineers broke the script for the gun so its not able to function so for the time being it doesnt work but can be used as a display feature for the time being

This would be awesome if it worked with WeaponCore. I'm assuming thats why it isn't working for me.
DeadlyAirForce 29 Jan, 2022 @ 12:25pm 
@Spacebar any update on the wave motion gun?
projectdeadboy 16 Dec, 2021 @ 11:03am 
This thing was amazing is it actually broken, or does it depend on some other block or script that I'm missing?

Any chance on this getting fixed?
