Making an Oversized rotating barrel (the wrong way) in From the Depths

[@AhumbleStugIII]

I love how this games community goes from let’s model the bolts on the deck of my <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="61">1:1</a> Iowa replica to whatever unholy abomination this is

Hello, 2000hr FTD player here. One tip for you is to subdivide your interiors into relatively small compartments, as this makes your craft exponentially more durable against enemy fire.

[@AkiUwUx3]

do you also love massive HE cannons

[@thathitmann8282]

I did. I think the chambers were about 1500 cubic meters max, which is bigger than I usually like to do.

[@Gameomaster-vv1cx]

Ah, I see now, my apologies.

[@Gameomaster-vv1cx]

Another, hopefully more useful tip: APHE shells are only really useful if they are going at least over 900-1000 meters per second, any lower and the AP value of the shell will be too low to penetrate most forms of armor on enemy crafts. You only beat the briar through the sheer volume of HE dispersed, however, your AP shells were not actually penetrating the armor.

[@ripoffpingu]

@@Gameomaster-vv1cx i mean. whether you penetrate enemy armour or not isn't dependant on your shells velocity, its dependant on your shell's kinetic damage + AP value compared to the block's health + armour class. you can absolutely make a sub 1000 m/s APHE shell with high penetration - look at CRAM. velocity just helps against more mobile and evasive targets, while also helping out with kinetic damage and AP value (velocity isn't THE thing that dictates whether you have good armour penetration or not, its the AP and KD value of your shell, which velocity affects)

[@michaelkolano8686]

this would make for an impressive, but still beatable campaign fortress

[@dripwastaken7884]

Its spin clipping the guns which would be banned

[@gregoryderpwrld111]

Well what if you put the rotary cannons horizontal, parallel with the ship instead of vertical/perpendicular? And maybe built it more _into_ the ship? So it can be more armored

[@alepthanderson5189]

ltd be really funny if you could make that gun fly like a spinning UFO and make it do strafing runs or standoff attacks

[@thathitmann8282]

@@alepthanderson5189 damn. Good idea. That's gonna be my next video.

I like your buulding stylem your commentary speaks to the agony of the average from the depths player, tho imagining the despair watching the eyrie eat every single round before annihilating the gun with a single cram to the turret would be fun to watch

@@Cake_soup Yeah it does look like that games version of the Bonewheel Skeletons. Though to me it looks more like the final boss of Jedi Starfighter

[@ultmateragnarok8376]

The little turrets on the rest of the craft feel like they're such a trivial formality at this point. I think style-wise there were only ever two ways to go with this turret. Either firstly the over-overbuilt concept you mentioned, which in my (unbiased) opinion could use more decoration styled to look like visible structural beams so it looks truly absurdly overbuilt to match the gun. The hatches into the turning area and the overlooks on the supports definitely add to that a lot. The second option is giving it all the curves and angles to basically look like it's half art piece - y'know, swept-back supports with an organic side profile for the bit holding up the gun, work the circle the base turns in into being a centerpiece of a series of other circles, perhaps incorporate the holes to the water into that, so on and so forth. That, or a flying saucer.

If aligned vertically, It'd be great on a carnival fortress. Double up the cannons, going the same direction at the same time, and make it look like a Ferris wheel.

[@Laughing_Dragon]

so, this feels like the type of gun you build a ship AROUND, meaning, the center of the ship is this, and it just rotates, but it's not a boat, it's just an alien space ship or plane, and it just looks like a spiky, large, weird vessel.

[@CreEpeRneSs125]

I was just thinking to myself how i would love to see another goofy From the Depths video. Lo and behold.

[@heinzaballoo3278]

This is glorious, but what if spin faster?

[@thathitmann8282]

@heinzaballoo3278 the part at the end where I sped it up is the fastest it can go with the cooling I added. Unless I added more cooling to each of the 48 barrels then making it any faster would cause it to go out of sync and do every other full spin without shooting once.

[@MarkoDash]

reminds me of the Hapan Battle Dragon from the old starwars EU. basically, the Hapan turbolaser cannons refire rate was significantly slower than the equivalent Imperial ones. so they built a ship that looks like two saucers stacked on top of eachother and the canons were mounted on a track running around the rims, so all the guns would rotate around the ship like the chain on a chainsaw.

[@Tokmurok]

THIS was the pinwheel that killed Jerma984

[@spheroid-collective]

This is if the calamity from beyond all reason was build correctly

[@IcespherePlaysGames]

This feels like the water based cousin of the Tsar tank

[@Runefrag]

I made something similar to this except it flew and the guns poked up from the top and bottom like traditional turrets and it was encased in like 15m of rotating armor. Spinning things is really OP in this game.

[@sup3rshockwav317]

It must spin faster, We need the alternate mini gun cannon to truly obliterate this game

[@Xjointz]

forbidden ferris wheel

[@MrCatofdoom]

If you want to make these kinda things look cool. look into industrial & or brutalist architecture.

[@AstraOG]

Idea: make the most inaccurate 500mm aps cannon possible, then stack like 20 inside each other to make a shotgun of pain and suffering

[@crackheadengineer3716]

Man made a vertical da vinci tank for the main weapon

[@Katvanished]

you totally should've made it horizontal

[@ninjin_ninja4783]

Regardless of efficiency or usability. I will always adore Carousel Cannons haha

Should make it spin super fast so that you get almost the same result as the final version, but with more gun

[@thathitmann8282]

You don't put your suppressor in front of your muzzle brake? Must be a regional thing wherever you're from. Everybody does that. Edit: on second thought, FTD maths out the length of barrel you need for full propellant burn. I wonder if it only counts the length of barrel up to the first brake. That would make sense.
