Adding a missile turret to a non-M7M, M8
Basically I'd like to turn my longsword mk2 into an m7m so I can launch all my marines at the same time as opposed to one slow reloading of the launcher after the other. Is that a Tships thing or tcockpits maybe?

Main cockpit also needs to be absent of weapons for a "missile turret" to work AFAIK.

You got it, an alternative may be to write a script that gives the longsword a missile spam special ability (c/f Mosquito Missile Defence).0o0o0 wrote:Sounds like thats my catch there. I would rather have main guns for this ship than missile launcher. I guess I can't have it both ways?

TMissiles... I would increase the refire rate from the Vanilla 15rpm to around 600rpm (anything higher will probably be barely noticable to you).0o0o0 wrote:Thanks for the help. Lookslike I'm not gonna get to way unbalance my ship afterall.
Edit: However it would solve my problem to lower the boarding pod reloading time to nothing so I could launch them all at once that way. Now I get to hunt for that one . . . Tbullets?
Thinking about it though, I gather that you can specify missile launch hardpoints on a model (put four or more on the Longsword) and you will get the same effect without increasing the rate of fire AFAIK. Not sure how to do this, but perhaps someone a bit more familiar with the modelling side can point you in the right direction. Will not be able to barrage though.

Ships have one launchpoint. Not more or less. Only Ships with missile turret (obviously) can have more.I gather that you can specify missile launch hardpoints on a model
