For those who have questions about today's mod update:

I originally had 2 pairs of the Concept Gatling Gun Turrets:

-Two with 5x5x5 bounding boxes. (bigger than the space the block uses).

-Two with 3x3x3 bounding boxes. (wrapped to the space the block uses.)

But the bigger bounding boxes made no sense to me in today's age of the game, so I shrunk them and didn't realize (was slightly ill at the time) and then released the update.

So it created 2 extras because the 5x5x5 weren't really relevant anymore. Very sorry about that. :)

Why there are duplicates? - legacy from the original?
(did you use new models that aren't represented here?)

Small Ship Mega Mod Pack Update Notes(Update: February 2/21/2023): Mod Update: Code Fix
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
=>Fixed doubles of the Concept Gatling turrets showing up in the g-menu now- I hid the other two: Upper/Lower because there was duplicates. Don't worry though as they will still stay with your ship and won't disappear. :)

Pushing another update through. Very minor one but it will fix doubles of the Concept Gatling turrets showing up in the g-menu now. :)

Lemme look into that today and find out why they're grouping and not separate. :)

Shiny! I've missed having an underside turret with the cam the right way up... but I'm seeing two of each turret. Are they identical, or is one of each the old borked one?

afaik/iirc it has to do with the whole way turrets orientation work and take input from the bottom only - but, because the "new" small ship turrets (relative, they where released long after the concept!) can also take input from front, sides and rear that might be somehow model related!

(What i certainly know is that there was some sort of orientation error with the turrets base as they just reused the same model without changing it's axis - but i thought SEModder04 did fixed that already [for me] a whole lot of time ago! xD)

Will fix that when I can.

All this time mucking about with the bottom turret, and only now do I discover that the conveyor connection doesn't work.
TenTech 28 Apr, 2018 @ 3:35pm 
It uses vanilla ammo, but it may have become bugged. I haven't tried it outside creative in a while.
odysseymwm 28 Apr, 2018 @ 12:38pm 
Ok, so I tested it in a vanilla world and found out about the different ammo. It's listed in the spawn in menu. I go into my regular survival world thinking I could make the ammo in the assembler. No such luck. I don't see an icon to make the ammo.

Mod bug or am I still missing something?
odysseymwm 28 Apr, 2018 @ 12:28pm 
Never mind, just found out it used special ammo. Such a doof :)
odysseymwm 28 Apr, 2018 @ 12:12pm 
Having a problem with not being able to put ammo into turret. On private, solo, survival world, lots of other mods. Grid is powered. Tested conveyor system with and without bottom turrent installed. Conveyor moves ammo can only up to turret (when installed). Also tested by just trying to put the ammo can into the turret not using any conveyor, cargo container, still cant.

Any ideas?
TenTech 15 Apr, 2018 @ 7:36am 
it does.
OtterMan18 14 Apr, 2018 @ 6:27pm 
Does it use vanilla ammunition?
SEModder4  [author] 4 Jan, 2018 @ 2:23pm 
np :D

Hey SEModder4, Thank You for the mod, Great work!!!

I think the issue is with cooling. Like, the spaced out three-barrel is easier to cool in space rather than the normal minigun look, since there's no atmosphere to absorb the heat.
Rocket_Man_Dan 3 Jan, 2018 @ 7:06pm 
Why not make both? Minigun has faster rate of fire but lower damage, while the three-barrel does higher damage with a lower rate of fire.
Darian Stephens 31 Dec, 2017 @ 4:54am 
Huh, neat how our comments are nearly opposite in what we're asking.
TenTech 31 Dec, 2017 @ 12:56am 
What I love best about this mod is that you're not upside-down when you control the bottom mount turret. It's perfect for my Space Marine landspeeders! But I personally *would* like to see it updated to the minigun look, because then it would resemble the assault cannon. For comparison:

Oh, the old three-barrel turret! I know this isn't exactly the old turret, but it's still got that design.
I'd love to see someone reduce the new gatling barrels down to three barrels again; it feels so much better than the generic minigun thing.
