I just realized.....you know what is missing from every BD mod?

An artillery turret.

PLZ-89 and AMOS are planned

[XOC2008]

I got one! You should take this: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/42189-0-22-GatlingGun-mod and use the model to make a GAU-19 for BDArmory/PEW/Spanners Boomsticks/Etc

[Atatra]

oh wow, i don't remember the last time i saw DYJ's Gatling gun circulating. nice to see it though, always loved that model.

[LORDPrometheus]

Well im definiatly not going to use his model. It is his after all.adding in a new gattling gun is possible still I suppose

That's cool. I only suggested it because a) I love the gau 19, and he says on the page that people were free to use the code and assets for mods. but if you make your own gau 19, I'll be sure to use it often!

Totally loving the missile variety, but is better missile effects in the plans?

As of right now, they are pretty much lackluster.

Once 1.1 comes out maybe I don't want to design something new only to have it completely destroyed by unity 5

[LORDPrometheus]

Well the Gau 19 isn't in the way but I'm making a Blazer air defense turret which has a Gau-12.

Progress report: lots of work done today and I'm not finished yet.

Once I finish the turret for the Stryker mobile gun system I plan to attempt to make the turret from a m901 ITV. After that I've got a few more missiles and some tank turrets to make. I'm going to split this update up and put out a bug fix and medium sized part update. Soon

Update: just learned I have a paper to write progress will slow for today now

Out of curiosity, do you have anything like rocket tube turrets or such planned? (BM-27 or 21 style, i mean)

Hmm.. it's not my beloved Gau 19 but I'm sure I can do something with that.

[Thatdude253]

Don't you just hate it when you have random papers pop up on you?

[Atatra]

Sadly there's currently no code in BDA that supports any kind of turret firing missiles or rockets. This is why LordPrometheus is having trouble making a realistic TOW missile turret, because missiles can only be parts and rocket pods are fixed and there is no code to support anything else, until perhaps the functionality is added in the next BDA update, but that could take a while.

[Krosulhah]

Oh, okay. D: Thanks for an answer though, it's much appreciated

[LORDPrometheus]

Yeah when i say im making a TOW launcher i basically mean I'm making a turret that fires a shell more like a rocket

[LORDPrometheus]

Ok so today I finished the stryker MGS yesterday I did the 9m270 iskander-M it wont have the same blast effects as NKD unfortunately but its I still have alot on my plate before the next update but right now im working on a PLZ-5 and the model is easier than the stryker so I should be able to also get on remodeling the m-31 for size before long and yes I will fix the IR surface ro air missiles somehow

If anyone knows how to add custom part categories like BahamutoD did but in a way that wont conflict with his please contact me

Basically a custom part category needs a plugin with modules like this

Can't wait to see that btw that's PLZ-05 (Type 05 Self-propelled Howitzer, P stands for artillery, L for howitzer, and Z for self-propelling), one more zero would be added to names of post-2000 weapons in China, like the QBZ-03 (went into service in 2003).
