BETA update

TUKE · August 17, 2015

Congrats, I've got my own BDA pack in development so i know how you feel.

Yukon0009 · August 17, 2015

But can it blow up an asteriod ?

JellyCubes · August 17, 2015

I like how the MOAB (with an equivalent TNT yield of 11 tonnes) has a blast radius comparable to the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima (with an equivalent TNT yield of 15,000 tonnes).

Thatdude253 · August 17, 2015

I dig the paveway. Not so hot on the larger ordanance (though the MOAB could give me a reason to build a c-130). More LGBs (and there are plenty out there) are definitely missing from BD armory

Wolf Baginski · August 17, 2015

The word is "ordnance"

An "ordinance" is a type of law, and the two should not be confused. Unless you are Judge Dredd and the results are funny.

minepagan · August 17, 2015

OMG PAVEWAY! *faints* OMG MOAB *faints again* OMG.....a......*heart attack*

Any chance of fixed guns, and/or small turrets? Like, a 20/30mm IFV turret, or at least fixed versions (just the barrel) for the 30mm and .50 cals?

On another note, HAVE A COOKIE! You have done 'MERCIA proud.

"Heavy Ordnance".

.50 cal turret...

Got it: of course, you mean .50 cal with "californium bullets" !!!

EdusacconBR · August 17, 2015

what about FOAB?

harpwner · August 17, 2015

what about FOAB?

Great Idea! I've added that to the planned list, I think I'll get started on that after the B-61 Nuclear Bomb

OMG PAVEWAY! *faints* OMG MOAB *faints again* OMG.....a......*heart attack*

OMG I feel very stupid, I just updated the post.. thank you for pointing out my error

That's what I get for posting a new thread at midnight!

I like how the MOAB (with an equivalent TNT yield of 11 tonnes) has a blast radius comparable to the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima (with an equivalent TNT yield of 15,000 tonnes).

Oh.... I added an extra zero... I meant to make the blast radius 180 meters...

I'm gonna go throw out a hotfix once I've had my coffee... and also edit the explosion effect!

harpwner · August 17, 2015

New Update released!

Version 0.1.1:

-Changed MOAB's blast radius to be more realistic

-Tweaked the explosion effect of the MOAB, looks way better now

Now all we need are nukes......MWAHAHA!!!!!

harpwner · August 17, 2015

Now all we need are nukes......MWAHAHA!!!!!

What if I told you

I'm already working on it

B-83 is on the way! it's extremely destructive!

Feradose · August 17, 2015

Tsar bomba please

Mrpijus123 · August 17, 2015

Umm... the MOAB behaves rather strange after jettisoning it. It starts gaining speed while going upwards. Does it generate lift or is it that lightweight that it falls up?

sashan · August 17, 2015

As for turrets... Please make Il-76 styled tail turret, with a single-kerbal pod and inbuilt ammo storage. it has 2x ÃÂ²ouble-barreled Gzh-23 cannons, 23mm, 3000rpm each, 700m/s muzzle velocity.

If you don't want to bother with IVA you can make this one, like on Tu-22:

This one has single R-23 cannon, 2500rpm, 23mm, 850m/s muzzle velocity.

Both should have 0.625 attach node for radar.

Want some more inspiration of jet-age turrets - see here:

Tsar bomba please

Oh the Tsar.... that may cause problems with ksp loading... it may even make a reasonable dent in Kerbin!

I'll think about it

sashan · August 17, 2015

I'll think about it

Its damage radius is almost as large as Kerbin's. Way too much.

harpwner · August 17, 2015

so... a kerbin-buster it would be!

nah, if I do make it I'll balance it... maybe it'll be as bit as the BD physics range

minepagan · August 17, 2015

Awwww.......

Either way, there IS someone experimenting with terrain deformation....MWAHAHA........

Also, how about just picking a 'standard' nuke, a hydrogen bomb, making kerbalized verisons, and calling it a day? (Although ICBM MIRVs would be nice....)

like I've said, I am working on some nuclear weapons... already made a regular airdropped one with a 200kt yield (unreleased)

I'm pretty satisfied with the blast radius of 1.5km for it

harpwner · August 18, 2015

so... hows about the first mushroom cloud to be in ksp... not bad eh?

minepagan · August 18, 2015

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!

+rep for you!

- - - Updated - - -

Crap, I have to spread some first.....

I haven't seen this happen, I'll get back to you if I can reproduce it.

And I'm glad you like it minepagan, I wonder if it was for a lack of trying or what but that effect only took like 2 hours to get working perfectly... just need better cloud textures xD

LORDPrometheus · August 18, 2015

Would you be willing to share your secrets to beautiful explosions for my existing BLU-82 and GBU-57A?
