real life =/= blockland
the more you aim up the higher the projectile goes, and that means more time it takes to fall down, more time means it could dissapear while in flight.
most of the projectiles dissapear after some time, so having it be shot straight up and fall back down won't work.
I know.
But I really hate how the pirate cannon works. I'm sure the range of an artillery gun would be better, but I like to be able to point and shoot without messing with the charging crap.

/ Support
i think there should be a delay when aiming up/down
also, if we get this, we must get this:

yes?


Something like this,


I started making one of these a while ago but never got around to finishing it...

I'm just gonna leave this here...

I was going to make a basic Artillery Cannon at one point, but never gave it any scripts.



im pretty sure i can whip up an edit of the pirate cannons script
as long as someone does the model.

EDIT: no i can't but tryed.
we need a master scripter in here

The complicated mechanics of how an ordinary artillery gun moves would be rather hard to do in Blockland.
How would this be done?
Or how the tank works. Just a vehicle with 1 mount point and then the cannon is attached to it and you mount onto that and you can shoot. How complicated is it?

I have another idea.
Precussion.
You know when someone shoots a mortar they duck and cover their ears?
and if they dont do that their eardrums get blown out?
well thats what im thinking, or this dosent happen with artillery cannons

I had a good idea of making Artillery in Blockland! Sadly, I need people to make a model, script the bot who helps during the reload session of the gun, I need someone to make a GUI for the artillery, and of course, a special truck that the player drives that also pulls the artillery with it! Good idea? Or just bad?

We sort of already have an artillery cannon; the tank.

But it's mobile, we don't need that.
Edit the tank cannon?

Need to change:
Model
Script (should not be that hard, just change some letters and numbers?

This is easy
I would only need a model though
