This must be the greatest vehicle mod around. One little thing though, might look better if some of the non-Dummy-Faction weapons are swapped for dummy ones. |

More likely the Armed Dropship guns, but giving those limited range would make them... kind of useless. |

I was thinking of replacing the armored car MG and the dropship MG with the Nailer Cannon, because I thought nailers were what dummies used as machineguns. But now it occured to me that the Dummy Dreadnought and the small turret actually used regular machine guns so I guess there's no need to replace them. Btw, where do you control the rate of fire for the dropship guns? |

The MGs were copied from the Dummy Turret, but I agree the nailer cannon would probably look better. Rate of fire: Search for this line in EDV.rte/Dropship/DropShip.lua Code: self.GunTimer[i]:IsPastSimMS(83) The number is the time between shots in milliseconds. You can change magazine capacity by editing the self.maxAmmo variable in the Create function. |

GJ. Love the tank. And you are good with missions. They are not epic, but fun and replayable. |

I just got this, without reading any of the comments, out of curiosity. I. AM. FLABBERGASTED. I can not summon up a good description of how awesome this is. The ground unit is now one of my fav mods of all time. I am eternally grateful for the awesome-sauce that you have just injected into my day. |

Make the new weapons (recoilless rifle) buyable, the AA rocket thing, and finally make some Coalition or some other faction vehicles to counter the dummy vehicle. Tank fights anyone? |

i absolutely loved the missions for this mod, and the buggy/tank looks amazing. i'd say that given a bit more improvement bug-wise it'd make a great vanilla addition (with perhaps some minor nerfing). god, the feeling when i was suddenly being attacked by a TANK in CC, i actually felt outgunned for the first time in a while. giving only one actor the RPG was a clever idea as well. EDIT: fjghdjskhfjdshf this is awesome EDIT2: a deployable AA setup would be fantastic, much like the buggy deployment. |

Hat off with scull cap attached  . The armored car is amazing! The Overrun mission manages to keep the tension high and difficulty normal at the same time.. Great.

The new sprites are very good looking, and I love the new mission. |

Thanks for the feedback. Both the SAM site and the RPG relies on the mission script to function, that is why you cannot buy them. The SAM is also ridiculously overpowered because it was created to serve as a "plot device" to make the missions unfold the way I planned. I like the idea of a similar weapon in a special drop crate though. If I ever get a hold of some decent sprites I will probably create it. goiduranus wrote: your dropship auto-turret work better than the having crabs as turrets, and here's the picture of my using them for fun :P Attachment: image |
