what the title says, so I want to weld up a warhead designed by me, the only problem is that, if I turn on the projector, and weld up everything, I can`t weld atmo thrusters. They are connected to the grid, no mods were used.

Furthermore, if I raise the main cannon, the whole vehicle starts to move forward.

Woah! Its you :D and I have thought about the problem, so added pistons. But its sliding forward even after that! I will try to extend pistons before elevating cannon, and include it to the info text panels. (How about a game together where we try it in battle? )

This is sweet! Would love to see it in action. Thanks for the shout-out.

As far as the uncontrollable rolling forwards which is effecting my arty as well, I have found that raising the vehicle up on pistons before you elevate the gun(launcher) will keep it in one place.

Great work
