The Deranged Industries: Ammo Point Defense Cannon

Description
The Deranged Industries
proudly introduces:
The Ammo Based Point Defense Cannon.



This is a standalone version of my ammo based PDC.
Do not use with my rebalance mod. The turret is included.



The ammo based PDC is meant to fill the gap between normal Point Defense, and Flak. Bringing a higher damage output, greater accuracy, and direct fire control to the table, the PDC now enables pilots and commanders alike the ability to define their approach to handling CQB.
  • One ammo resource feeds the PDC with 20 rounds.
  • Two ammo loaded at a time. Has a 40 round magazine.
  • Without crew reloading, provides roughly 9 seconds of consistent point defense.
  • Roughly twice as effective as vanilla PD.
  • Needs roughly 2 crew to maintain ammunition under constant fire.
  • Needs 1 crew to maintain ammunition under inconsistent fire.

been almost a year, still use this sucker, closest thing to phalanx ciws you'd get, if only there was a roof version but to balance it out It'd be a bigger placement space and maybe nerf the speed

Yeah I was still using it to this day, I realised that but it was another mod causing issues for me

@chef Smudge'nt I tested it, and this mod, while not saying it's updated, works as intended with the current version.
@Bonible Thanks, I really appreciate that I inspired further modding work. <3
@Crimson Alpha CQB is Close Quarter Battle.
@sebaskebab13 It should be, generally this Point Defense has a higher DPS, so it should do more damage, but doesn't do anything special like penetration or fire chance.

What the hell is CQB?

This is what inspired my ballistic weapons mod, General Munitions - including an ammunition based point defense gun. Thank you :3

can you update this to the newest version of the game please?

Is offensive use also better?

这是我的弹药PDC的独立版本。

不要与我的再平衡模式一起使用。包括炮塔。




基于弹药的PDC旨在填补常规点防御和Flak之间的差距。PDC带来了更高的伤害输出、更高的精度和直接的火力控制,现在使飞行员和指挥官都能够定义处理CQB的方法。

一个弹药资源为PDC提供20发弹药。

一次装填两枚弹药。有一个40发弹匣。

无需机组人员重装,可提供约9秒的连续点防御。

大约是香草PD的两倍。

大约需要2名乘员在持续火力下维持弹药。

需要1名乘员在不一致的火力下维持弹药。

Now that I have a bit more experience with Cosmoteer modding. I may make a Phalanx or Expanse style PDC in the future. A bit larger, but with C-RAM rounds. (small detonations near their target or at max range)

May be just increase size?
