bartekkru99 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 You mean the 25mm Bushmaster on the M2A3 Bradley? That is an anti-Infantry and light armored vehicle weapon. It has 4 fire modes, and 2 belts of ammo that feed into it. It has high rate and low rate for either the AP rounds or for the HE rounds.I was talking about Mk44 one, they aren't that different, but if MK44 would be better because it uses 30mm rounds, which are already in the game...

BahamutoD Posted February 8, 2015 Author Share Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) Nothing to show yet, but I want to clear up some confusion with firing weapons.The "fire key" (left-click by default), which is what you can set in the options menu (alt- is the only way to fire guns. If you arm the weapon manager, then you can also fire the selected missiles/bombs/rockets by holding down this same key. This is how you rapid-fire (aka ripple fire) rockets.The "Fire" action group can only be used to fire missiles, bombs, rockets - one at a time. It will not work for guns, because in KSP, action groups are one-shot actions, and holding them down will not allow you to fire anything for a sustained period of time.Edit:By the way, development on this and my other mods has been slowed because I started working on my own game. I can't promise anything big any time soon.. sorry! Edited February 8, 2015 by BahamutoD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whizzkid Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) I have been using your mod with great success so far, however, I seem to be having trouble with the HE-KV missiles. I have tried doing a test fire against a piece of debris in orbit, however, although the missile hits the target and produces its explosion effect, it does not cause any damage.Also, what is planned for the next update?Great mod BTW Edited March 15, 2015 by Whizzkid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntiMatter001 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I started working on my own game.hm i was just about to say you should make your own game now since lots of people appear to be more interested in staying kerbin side and blowing each other up. an example of one of my battles* which took place on MINMUS** was piratically hilarious and somewhat fun.the weapon matter... eh... the pack seems to have what it really needs already. add a little more yeah but not too much or it will slowly drain creativity out of players and will most-likely result in people wanting turrets like the M1A1 tank turret in the pack so they can just stick it on a body and off they go. "plug and play" so to speak.*(made an very dumb/basic AI from one of the autopilot mods heh)**(don't use tanks... i still have one in orbit somehow...)

boontze Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 You know the two LMGs on the waist gunner of a bomber....... well that would be kinda cool with an attatchment node on it so that people could get creative with that and make some amazing,self defending,bombers. You know to defend against those pesky fighters that are always on your tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenleaf223 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Darren9, that's pretty sweet, can't wait to give Jeb an AK 47 and run around on the Mun. I wish I knew how to model things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espresso Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 By the way, development on this and my other mods has been slowed because I started working on my own game. I can't promise anything big any time soon.. sorry!Sounds good, the mod still works in 0.90, excluding the bombs, but they only require removing the space at the end of their part. File names.On another note, what's your game gonna be about, where can I find out more? Best of luck to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOOGa Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) I am experiencing a problem where about every other time I load in a vehicle on the runway, I am not able to revert the flight or anything else that would allow me to reset what i just did. This only started after i downloaded BD and only in the last few minutes. This very annoying as i have to quit and reload KSP every flight or test.Upon further investigation i found that this bug only occurs after alt-tabbing to a different window and then back again.

Jim "Spacedog" McDingo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I love this mod, have had it since it was just the 50. Cals. Have you ever thought about doing a sort of armed command chair? Like a bomber waist gunner, as someone said earlier, but to fire it has to be manned? Another example could be a surface mounted humvee turret? Just thinking. P.S. first post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel l. Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Speaking of rockets, I have a small problem with them, They are too powerfull, One lucky shot and an entire battleship will disintegrate, Even worse the point defense of the target doesnt even try to stop them .I really think you should either make them recognizable as a threat so guns will shoot them down, Or nerf their blast power.Your mod is Great and hope that this one minor flaw is solved soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way you can fight all you want and don't have to worry about missiles. If you mean the rocket pods though, I'm pretty sure the projectiles are unstoppable.

King_komodo93 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I don't think so, the indicator does not appear at any altitude or attitude.Perhaps you're not in level flight?
