i have a request and a good one

Author Topic: i have a request and a good one  (Read 2415 times)

just something i thought would be cool, a deployable turret!
anyways i would like a building weapon or a tool, like a wand, then when you hit the ground or a brick somewhere a gui will appear asking what type of thing you want for example (a few with descriptions) (the guns will automaticly aim)
in paranthCIA at the end of each item description is its hp, (rated by pistol shots because it takes (5 shots to kill with a pistol)


Basic turret: fires pistol bullets at a rate of 2 shots per second (10)

Missle turret: fires rocket's (rocket launcher) at about .5 per second (10)

Heavy turret: fires pistol bullets at a rate of 5 per second (20)

Rapid fire cannon: fires pistol bullets at a rate of 10 shots per second (15)

Rapid fire missle turret: fires rocket's at a rate of 1.5 per second (15)

Ulti-assult cannon: fires both rocket's and pistol bullets (rockets .5 per second) (bullets at 5 per second) (35)


if you have any other ideas for different types of weapons or items that can be built or deployed just post em here XD

items to be deployed (these will require another weapon called a control box or something (when the object is deployed it gives you its control box(if the deployed object requries one))

camera stand: lets you observe the battlefield from a safe distance (or spy on noobs) (10)

random noob killing machine: if your mad at noobs (outside of a minigame) use this and it will fire one shot at a noob and kill him every time he spawns XD (no hp)

defence outpost: builds a portable base that you can take cover in and fire from (50)


each object has a range of 64 bricks around it enless soemone makes a turret design with a longer range

i would really like this add on and im sure many other ppl would also, so pelase can someone fofill this request?


I'll add it to my todo list.

Dude!  check out Space Guy's Wrench Events.  You can do most of this, only you can't set a distance for the turrets, or a IFF protocol.  But you can also do so much more, like doors that decolide to walk through, changing lights (light switch, etc), bricks can through you in a direction (think Halo 3's man cannon, but knock-off), damaging bricks that hurt or kill on contact, and laser tripwires that can set off these actions...

This guy's mod powers most of my greatest creations!

This would actually be cool. If it was like a weapon that you could pick up and set down. When you set it down it gives you the controls for it, and when you aren't using the controls, it auto-fires. Like in the 007 games.

letting people use wrench events in a minigame = no no.


Which effectively ends any possible usage of those turrets in a minigame, major construction.



Like I said, I'll get to it. I'm thinking of disincluding this: random noob killing machine.

if this comes out i will download

Ok, good point, but I didn't neccesarily mean IN a mini-game, the admin could set them up before hand.  Anyway, it's not the same, but a step in the right direction.

its not, my intention was that each gun locked on to an enemy (the bullets would not be homing missiles) but i want it to aim at them from a distance of at least 64 bricks away. wrench events only works in certian directions, this one is an all around fireing gun


Qwertyuiopas made the TF2 turret. It just points at the target directly and shoots. it dosent rotate to the targets posistion tho.

You're only half right.  Wrench events can auto target bullets at a target, but it's range is short, and again, no IFF (no way to keep it targeting him and not you).  It would be a good guard unit for areas, but, as shown, it is no replacement.  Oh, well.

Can I get this somewhere?  I've used the search function with no luck.  Can you post a link?

He hasn't released it, I don't think

Great idea! Love it seriously! We need those for like zombie DMs or like for some kinda fort war!

You Idea Earned 3 cookies! :cookie: :cookie: :cookie:

Has everybody just skipped over my post of it being an Item that can be deployed?
