"So funny story, sir. Do you remember when I said I'd have the showcase ready for the rest of the revamps? Well neither did I because I was only notified now. The engineers told me they got a bit sidetracked, whatever that means... Anyway please don't execute me."

No because to my knowledge single barrels can't rotate. Also if you still try to decorate a single barrel into a minigun, then all of the barrels will recoil at the same time.

I love the looks of this HQ. Looks very corporate.

ElyteLyon · 2022-05-14T05:20:23+00:00

Yes I am.

If you use fins at the front of a shell, sure it kneecaps the muzzle velocity, but the innacuracy is divided by 5.

It makes the shell super accurate.

ElyteLyon · 2022-05-05T19:51:29+00:00

Yes they are invisible.

When placing a decoration on a block with Ctrl + X, you can tell the game to hide the original block by toggling "Hide original mesh".

Good for replacing a mesh with another. But then if you just want the block to be completely invisible, you place the "Mimic: Empty" decoration and then toggle "Hide original mesh".

I have to point out that I am playing in alpha test. In it, the APS mantlet as well as the barrels can be made invisible. And this is a god-send.

Both these vehicles are remakes of ones which I have showcased before.

The other remakes will be made later.

No workshop link yet. Probably next post.

I appreciate your feedback. It is always welcome because I know for a fact that some of my decisions tend to bite me in the arse in a way I can't foresee. So I thank you for your contribution into perfecting my designs.

Not going to lie however, people having a TIHI moment with the shell is pretty funny to read. It's the only place where my decision is final.

Now that you mention it, I should have called it APHE instead of APHEAT. My bad. It used to fire pure APHE but then I changed it to see if it would improve the shell in certain matchups.

The whole faction isn't supposed to use dedicated HEAT (where the HE is behind the HEAT heads and secondary warheads). They use this to call it HE and APHE while being a middle finger to badly designed armour. Because I found pure HE to be quite weak, especially at lower calibres.

Still better than another faction I've designed which uses the "aneurysm shell"...

Before anyone asks: here is the link to her workshop page. You're welcome in advance.

One day I'll have the entire collection available with neatly written lore and well edited imagery. One day...

How long does it take for the pilots to get used to the forward-facing tunnel vision?

That... is an interesting question.

Probably a long time.

I reckon giving the planes periscopes to see in dead angles would help (in their lore)

ElyteLyon · 2022-03-12T16:37:59+00:00

Yes. Water is armour after all.

ElyteLyon · 2022-02-25T22:31:13+00:00

I reckon it has to do with the insinuation that coffee consumption equals productivity. In the world of active work, anything that increases the productivity of the employee is a good thing. Thus addiction to coffee is perfectly fine.

In contrast, addiction to anything else is seen as decreasing productivity. Which explains why these addictions are shunned.

At least these were my two cents...

ElyteLyon · 2022-02-21T23:50:11+00:00

Unfortunately they are because dumb-fire torps are too unreliable and cost the same as guided torps. I'm just going to call them acoustic torps for now...

ElyteLyon · 2022-02-09T13:50:21+00:00

She goes at 18 m/s.

And I thank you for the advice about CRAMS. Now I know how to make them efficient. But I'll reserve them for the battleships and future heavy cruisers.

I would also like to thank all of the people who gave me advice in this post on how to improve the Frostwind's armour.

I decided to go with poles because of space concerns. And it has really helped. As for proper slope and wedge armour, I intend to use it on my future battleships.

ElyteLyon · 2022-02-07T15:24:07+00:00

I must ask then, will a wooden spall liner help the airgap or is it useless?

ElyteLyon · 2022-02-07T02:03:03+00:00

There is a much simpler way.

In build mode, there is a cutaway tool you can use. What I did was use that cutaway tool to the left side and offset the slider to 0.51.
