is there any way a version of this script could be designed to work with a vanilla gravity canon ?

Hi, I have two scripts for two types of weapons. They are customizable. If you have some mod for this script using, I can check it.

Hi do have any details on modifying the script for using different weapons? and potentially giving the script a GPS position to aim at?

Cheers

So, i've got some new experiences. Huge mods, lots of crazy guns=). They're a missile launchers. My script for the Revived Large Railguns can help https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1523446527

Example for HS Sniper Cannon (there is only for a small grid):
replace 2 lines

tCannon LargeGridCanon = new tCannon() { Name = "Not exist", Range = 0, Velocity = 0, ReloadTime = 0 };
tCannon SmallGridCanon = new tCannon() { Name = "HS Sniper Cannon", Range = 8000, Velocity = 4000, ReloadTime = 0 };

I was mostly wondering if it could be used for the fixed turrets from inspired weaponry and GSF

This script is designed for CSD BattleCannon Long Range.
The first screenshot shows, how the weapon is described. The script can work with any fixed weapon if the weapon type is iMySmallGatlingGun and the weapon parameters have been entered.
The script does not automatically recognize the parameters of another weapon.
Mike Loeven 1 Oct, 2018 @ 10:19am 
Is the script generalized enough to work with any fixed weapon or does it only work with the battle cannons ?
