I bet the recoil would kill a normal actor. Or atleast knock them back alot.

Dummy behemoth?
EDIT: Ether that or you can make recoil dampeners on the gun. (decrease recoil in the ini)

It is not quite that simple.

*facepalm* I remember, it has something to do with the mass and such?

The game engine will always convey the recoil of the fired projectile. You have to fire a separate, lighter projectile that then gibs or otherwise spawns the desired projectiles.

Nowadays it's actually easier to have the mass reset on Create(), so you could probably just do that.

Actually, the turret fires a weightless particle that spawn a nail at the end of any sprite it touches. One reason is to alternate the spawn point between the upper and the lower muzzle. When using pure ini all projectiles exit the same barrel, or between barrels like the coalition auto-cannon.

I managed to get it to fire from separate barrels by using the TDExplosive method of recoil negation combined with the use of a tracer of exactly the same gibs but on an offset. It works pretty good, actually. It's similar to the 5 barrel machinegun, but asymmetrical.

Realistically speaking, this cannon isn't exactly "light".

I still love these things. Granted, as a co-conspirator I've had them for months, but still, I find I place them in every base scene I make now.

The funny story about it being a gun is I did toy around with this as a gun-arm concept originally, for the Behemoth, Mega Man or FFVII Barret style. I have some old mock-ups lying around:

Image Original

Image and again on the touched-up Behemoth.

The barrels eventually got chopped and edited into the Shotgun, and the Hyper Laser concepts.

I love the new turret and fixes to the hover tank...but can you make it hover above the water in the Hydro Plus mod?
