Description
Projector Rig designed for use with the Hades Autoloader Grav Artillery.
Used to project the Shaped Charge Shells used by the Hades.
Reliable loading of the Artillery requires proper alignment of the Projector Rig.

To align the rig

  1. Pilot the rig into position.
  2. From a top down view, ensure the rig is centred on the Artillery's connector.
  3. Switch to a side view, and hold down "thrust down" and "thrust back" ('c' and 's' by default) (See pics)
  4. When the rigs pressed hard against the floor and back wall, and is no longer moving, press 'p' to lock both the connector and landing gear.
  5. Turn on the projector, and check the position of the projection. The conveyor "tail" should be aligned with the conveyor tube of the projector rig, The tip of the shell should be as close to the front of the magazine as possible while keeping the conveyors aligned and joined.
  6. Check the alignment of the projection. There should be a slight, even gap between the projection, and the large landing gear on the end of the Shell Feed Piston (see pics). If the projection cuts through the landing gear, or the gap is noticeably uneven, try the alignment process again.
  7. If everything looks good, turn off the rigs thrusters and inertial dampeners. You're ready to go

KNOWN ISSUE: Sometimes after loading and firing a full mag, the landing gear will automatically unlock. This isn't really an issue, as the landing gear are mostly there to help align the rig as the connector will keep it in position. However, during prolonged use it's recommended to occasionally check the landing gear and re-engage them if needed.
