Large Missile Turret Silo

Description
This is a large operatable missile turret which is able to retract.

Based on "Modular Extendable Mechanism" and "Missile Turret Silo" by Pep:

This one isn't large enough? Check this one out:
http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=283994736

To operate:
The cockpit is placed between the launchers, accessable from the front of the gun.
Open / close the door by selecting the "Door" Group in Control Panel and click Reverse.
Move the turret up and down by reversing the "Piston" Group.

Moving up:
Open the Door, unlock "Base Connectors", then extend the piston and finally release the "Turret Connectors". Now have fun with this rather good firepower. Don't turn too fast thou.

Moving down:
Point the turret straight upwards and turn the red light on the turret's base to the red block on the platform, after that lock the "Turret Connectors" and retract the piston. Once you're down, close the Door and lock the "Base Connectors" to be able to refill the turret.

Positive side effect of the locked connectors: while retracted, it is really safe to move around.


I provided a few targets to test your aiming on, and also another platform/elevator next to it.


Let me know if I could improve something (don't tell me it isn't large enough)

Everything works fine now. No idea what went wrong, but it was letting me move the platform before with the base connectors still engaged... which shouldn't have worked. Everything seems fine now. Turret moves really smooth, and can take a lot of damage and still function suprisingly.

@CrazyIvan1745 there is supposed to be one Gyroscope at the back of the barrel, check if it is there, otherwise reload the world

I did, but still didn't work. I'll go through it and try again. Is it supposed to not have Gyroscopes though? It shows that there isn't any when I am in the turret seat.

@CrazyIvan1745 @wkckjr have you unlocked the "Turret Connectors"? With those locked it doesn't move and bobbles just around...

the turret part u sit in goes strait up and doesnt move D:

Cannot get the turret to be controlable after raising it. Just moves the entire platform and swings around like a little bobble head

Currently working on a bigger gun (10 launchers in 2 barrels), which will be even more difficult to operate, but as long as we don't get scripting I can't make it any easier for you.

@dzikalkulka Oh I forgot to mention that that one is hidden between the launchers ^^
