Castigo Armaments

[Chiboko]

The final result is the length of a large I-beam and fits on a Junior docking port, there where a few... issues during its design

Like all of our products it has been added to our range though we provide this: http://www./download/4hik280h37ojibs/US1+Torpedo.zip individual download for your convenience.

Why when saying the size do some things says this. From the B1 Bomb description: Slightly larger than an Fl-T400 Fuel Tan*. This seems to happen in other descriptions too. What happened to the k?

[Chiboko]

I started this thread on April fools day every new post had every 'k' replaced with an '*'

[mike9606]

Well can you fix it?

[astecarmyman]

I Like it! But a quick question: Is the torpedo meant to be just propelled towards the enemy and work on impact? Or am I supposed to detonate it with the decoupler?

It is really a shame that the Kraken Plasma cloud doesn't just stay in its detonation area (or at least remain on a linear path). So much potential damage....

I managed to create Kraken Plasma that stayed in a near linear trajectory (It detonates and stops at around 200/300m, see if you can make it good enough to take out warships

Unfortunately it is must be detonated manually, hence the probe core, rtg and maneuvering thrusters.

Edit: This is actually the first type of plasma I discovered (I was originally trying to fit lots of thrusters onto a small missile) unfortunately the Sepratrons low crash tolerance means that even light armor (wing parts) is enough to protect against them.

Have you tried making a high powered weapon propelled by explosions? (Overheated parts)

[Chiboko]

I have toyed around with the idea and come to the following conclusions

-Seperatrons are the most compact way to destroy parts

-Any part that explodes with a useful amount of force will also be prohibitively large

-Any projectile large enough to make such a large weapon worthwhile will be too heavy to be launched effectively

The final weapons is almost always to large to be worthwhile... though by bringing this up you did just give me an interesting idea for miniaturized burst weapons.

[astecarmyman]

Hmmm.... Why don't you try to make a Kraken Drive Propelled missile that mounts a mk3 Kraken Warhead on the tip? I don't know where to find any Kraken Drive sub-assemblies :I

.23.5 patched the kraken drive bug AFAIK

[Chiboko]

I have been able to build working kraken drives in the current version. So far they cause way to much torque to be useful.

Edit: Testing the concept I mentioned in my previous comment, looks like I blew up Kerban... again.

Slight miscalculation

Actually, some K-Drives still work, albeit in a much less powerful manner.

[Chiboko]

It seems I have come up with a reliable planet buster with 2 interesting/annoying properties

-Unfortunately it crashes the game and reloading sends you back in time to just before you fired it.

-The projectile has a 100% consistent range so I parked a tank under the exact spot it would land, the unarmed projectile hit the tank; all armed projectiles suddenly experienced a 200% range increase making them miss the tank. After moving the tank out of the way they acted normally again.

Cool beanz! Can you please link me any working Kraken Drives? I will be leaving on the 20th for a long month and a half. Will be back on August 1st.

I hate to prod, but why? These munitions are... creative, and have quite a bit of potential.

(Even a K-Drive type engine that works like a pulsed nuclear rocket, where detonations shove a craft along.)
