Control Blocks (Pistons, Swivels, MTMags, etc)
- Thread starter Aceba1
- Start date
and @Legionite I made you a new Ion Cannon. it's all skelletal because of weight limitations on the turret assembally and so people dont need to tear it apart to see how it works.
1-outriggers
2-feet
3-Focus/Spread Ion Beam
Arrow keys control the turret
R for manual aiming
Iv got another project that this is going into for a totally different perspective on the weapon.

Better Future piston & Friction Pads are here!
Just gotta say, rhis mod has changes the way i play terratech

omg, this is so awesome...couldn't catch up the entire thread so sorry if already asked, but, Already tried a walking mechanism? I mean Tech robots, yes!
Awesome job guys, @WhitePaw2002 and the modelers and other players who helped!

Tractor piston idea: can make blocks hover at a distance, and can only change while not in combat
This mod is beast! There were some suggestions made that I also agree and encourage such as the anchor points issue but regardless, it is awesome.
I'd humbly suggest as well that if it could be possible to have a complex "walking pistons" mechanism in one single block, with at least two or three articulations would be something amazing to play with.
Although it isn't too complicated to achieve this with the pistons and swivels as they are right now though, but thought this sort of mechanism would be a next step on that direction.

Just to clarify for all asking about the APs
The APs can only be aligned within the Tech grid due to the building system. So unless there is a different Tech the attach points won't rotate.
The problem is kinda the same for moving because the code wasn't made to support dynamic AP change when the block is attached. In pure theory it could be possible but would probably be a nightmare to do.

Positional
Nothing new
Targeting
This mode has changed to adapt Positional while there is no target present. Going back to aiming automatically when needed
Cycle
"it's weird
but it works the way it is supposed to
It's like the On-Off, except it bounces off (angular) limiters and reverses (direction)
For things like walkers"
Oh there's a new UPDATE that adds four new methods
(copied & pasted off of github)
(copied & pasted off of github)
- Player Aim
- Velocity Aim
- Cycle
- Throttle
- Blocks added to tech should no longer teleport the tech's rotation
- Half-values save properly now
- When no target is nearby, Enemy Targeting temporarily switches to Positional
Whoa wait what are those grey blocks? is that some ultra early version of TT? A reskin?
EDIT: just what its not early bc i see BF blocks
