Hey Everyone! I have noticed I forgot set up the Sensor to detonate the Warheads! OOOOPS! 😅 Be sure to open 'Setup Actions' in the Sensor then place the Warhead Group in the 1st slot and select Detonate! Then Test out your Missile again, and adjust the sensor extent.

A very detailed guide to understanding the mechanics of event controllers and AI blocks. In practice, such a number of blocks is not required for a rocket. For example, in interception mode there is no need for a brake thruster, which greatly simplifies the missile design.

Love the missile design. I'm already coming up with a ER version that carries several of the missiles on a booster that also is also a kinetic impactor. It will carry several of these missiles and may replace the warheads in some with decoys and have those missiles set to orbit and/or hit/run menuvers to confuse enemy turrets with 1 warhead for self-destruct when out of fuel.

Cool - I just gave this advice to someone in the comments section to improve the efficiency of the missiles! haha. I did do some improvements to this design on the workshop, where I only use one Fuel tank, giving more space for warheads and extra armor.

While testing, the thrusters turn off after launch, I still haven't discovered why this is the case. Another additional discovery is that they are very vulnerable to the defensive fire of Gatlins. It's not that this is wrong, but on the contrary, it motivated me to investigate and find a way to improve the missile. It will take me days for sure but that is the attractive thing about this game, thanks for the video.

Y'know I played a bit of vanilla SE, even delved into some servers... And what I've figured? It's like RUST, or ARK Survival Evolved... at some point all your work will mean legit nothing because someone at some point will come by and ruin it all for you. I had a massive base with a web of like 212 gatling guns. More than 3/4s were built, and 3/4s of the built ones had ammo. That base stopped 4 players, both with massive ships which were PvP oriented. After the aftermath, it looked like a warzone with craters all over the place. I used half blocks to purely measure, but the opponents thought if they disconnect the turrets from the main base by destroying the half blocks, they failed to realize each turret had a battery underneath them, guaranteeing they'll have power. Missiles are expensive and only reasonably obtainable when you spend time in space. So you know what I figured? The deadliest and most cost effective means of weapons is using clang... custom missiles, drones, etc. not meant to explode, but ram the enemies with their sheer mass. In hind sight, it's pretty cheap to build drones or defenses with minimal components if all they are meant to do is ram the enemy ships. I found an underground base, depending how deep you go, repels enemies to use their ships to attack you, forcing them to make something small or to use their own engineer. In space? Only thing I figure is if your base is constantly on the move, even if you're not online to watch it. Yeah you may come back to it damaged as it ran into an asteroid, but the contracts that make you hunt other players becomes kinda tough because your "last known location" is always moving. If eventually you get sustainable enough for a warp drive, you have a timer block automatically use it every so often while you're offline, further deterring enemies from trying to follow you.

Yeah, I never joined server (so far) but I understand the frustration of things being destroyed. I feel like if you go onto a PVP server, you also have to go into it and build with that mindset. I honestly don't think it is hard to get the resources in this game, especially once you reach a certain stage in the progress - So missiles are pretty easy to fabricate. And I just like the Boom.. lol

For the launcher rather than having the event controller start a timer block for the connector, couldn't you set the trigger to be "Connector Ready to Lock" instead and save yourself the cost of the timer block. This also fixes the issue where if you do not have enough materials then your missile won't be stuck in a disconnected state if you get more materials later on.

That solves how to connect on initial print but introduces a different issue. For me it kept re-locking after i tried to release it. In other words: RELEASE missile, IF ready to lock THEN re-lock, now i have a armed missile glued to me.

Opinions, I haven't really built any missiles though. Trim it down to forward only, no breaking and and steering thrusters. Use gyro steering and you'll get more time out of a single tank. Turn it into a shrapnel grenade and give it a little extra durability by loading up on gyros, leftover gyros from the impact and detonation will bounce around inside their hull causing even more damage...

If you build a large grid rotor and remove the rotor head, you can go in the menu and add a small rotor head to it... that allows you to build small grid blocks onto it. The welders are snapped onto the large grid.

It is possible - You will have to do some reprogramming, where the override thruster keeps going until the AI blocks ping the target. Then they disable the whole override and start targeting.

I wouldnt use Event Controllers, they are unreliable. Just use a Timerblock to start the missile, set it up as a group, and just start that timer/group instead of disconnecting the merge block (timer block will do that). The only thing i would use an Event Controller is to check if the missile is complete or/and the tank is filled up. But same here, its unreliable. I tried it with groups and specific names, but it fails often. What i didnt try was to use prefix names like you, maybe that stops ECs to fail? I also found a bug where tanks dont fill up randomly. The solution was to reconnect the connector. I´m using a timerblock on the ship to reconnect the connectors regulary for that reason.
@Mavo1974
@Mavo1974 5 ай бұрын
I use an event controller only for the tank. If tank is at 75% it turns the small connector off and the fire timer on, cuz i have a timer that starts itself to connect the small connector as a safe gruard to be sure the missile has fuel.

I find that with my ECs on projections that often I have to adjust the slider manually after it is projected and then it seems to "reset" and work just fine. I ran into this when building a drone carrier setup. All my drone ECs no matter how hard I tried had to be fiddled with right after projection. That could be what you're noticing when they are unreliable. Sorry for old post

@@MANU-dw9dh If you build a Large Grid Rotor or Hinge, you should be able to grind away the spindle of the rotor, or the middle hinge part of the hinge. Then in the menu, you should be able to add a small head to them. That allows for small grid connections to a large grid. If that does not make sense - I can try to explain during one of my streams.

The strange thing is it appears more than one mod makes heavy armor weigh more because so far if I have 1 or the other or both I found, the missiles have a weak arc and explode off the ground, or they skid along like a tobaggan, wait and they explode when the tanks run down. I may have to abandon the principle in favor of making drones. Don't get me wrong, I love the missile you made but it isn't even targeting things correctly; rather than go through all the mods I have adding pieces etc and possibly losing a piece of my base, I'll have to shelve this. Still keep it up, I used to watch your NMS vids back in the day, glad to re-find you.
