The concept

NAME: Missile pod

SIZE: 2X2X3
NOTES: Needs a camera block to work.

A pod of missiles that has 3 missiles. press your keybind for the block and it will rapidly fire 3 missiles.
If a creation is in view of your camera block, then it will begin to lock on, taking 3 seconds to lock,then you can fire.

The missiles themselves move at around 300 kph, and guide to the target.

does about the same damage as a rocket launcher.


Image of what i'd like the missile pod to look like:

but with only 4 holes in it.












NAME: Large missile pod
SIZE: 2X6X2 has 12 holes
ABOUT: fires 12 missiles rapidly. takes 4 seconds to lock on. still requires a camera block.
missiles travel at 200 kph. same damage as a rocket launcher. (note, i actually added this because i was inspired by a comment! please leave your suggestions down below! :D)






Is this gonna get put into the game?
i assume no. if this gets a ton of attention and the devs notice it and they think its cool or balanced then theres a slim chance they will add it.

i don't have high hopes of anyone seeing it.

i would suggest this on the actual tm discord, but idk how the suggestion feature works for 1.7.

This seems like a very cool concept! It reminds me of the tracker pods from Titanfall 2 and I think it's a unique idea.

Blocks like this have actually been suggested tons of times on the discord! We can only hope that something like this will get added in 1.8.

I had a random Idea, What if you could hook up a tone generator into a weapon?, That way it would make noise when it had a lock on something.

firstly if they were to add it they would most likely have to make the damage lower than the original rocket and probably make it slow enough to dodge.
