Great job with the tanks!! Really enjoyed tuning the little atomic one
The only drawback I see is that .308 and .50 are now by far the most common ammunition.
Is there a way to add more randomness in the amount of ammo you find in a tank ?

Easiest way would be adding some variation in what guns are mounted on the vehicles. Granted, most were modelled after real-life vehicles which do love the hell out of the M2 and M240.

Here just encountered something where your APFSDS’s wasn’t overkill… one should never annoy dancing zombies…

yet to hit anything with any of the reloaded shells unless it was right next to the cannon

Random_dragon · 2015-09-20T02:30:27.000Z

That’s a recurring issue with mounted weapons, having trouble getting a reliable hit. This is magnified with the reloaded, lower qualitity shells.

And…yeah. Good luck killing the zombie dancers with ANYTHING.

…i will complete my bestiary of kills!..(hopefully)

Random_dragon · 2015-09-20T02:56:38.000Z

Oh damn.

WHAT did you hit them with?

Glad to see I’ve yet to be proven wrong in that item’s statement. o3o

One one hand, the really nasty properties of that kind of round don’t materialize unless it hits something tough enough to trigger the unique physical and thermal properties of depleted uranium.
On the other hand it’s still a rather large hypervelocity slug that is going to have 0 problems tearing apart pretty much anything else it comes in contact with.

Random_dragon · 2015-09-21T08:10:25.000Z

True. If I recall, I gave it the incendiary flag, but I’ve yet to see that flag actually DO anything. XP

zveroboy · 2015-09-27T17:26:06.000Z

amm… is it about Tanks mod? in last night build (009d626) in mod Tanks in vechicles.json has an error:
line 174:73 missing separator

Random_dragon · 2015-09-27T17:29:22.000Z

Aw hell. ;w;

Well, time for another PR…

SkyeAuroline · 2015-09-27T19:30:54.000Z

Commented elsewhere. But using the last build released on the 25th, along with Blaze’s newest version of their mod, these are the errors I mentioned getting.

The last one repeats at 10% intervals until 0.

Random_dragon · 2015-09-27T19:34:40.000Z

As I’ve mentioned, Blaze’s latest edition of the mod, on his thread, fucks up Tank mod something fierce.

I’m still pissed at him for that. This is going to become an even bigger clusterfuck if he PRs that. Just when players finally start getting used to the idea of VAP turrets being manual-only, what does he do?

SkyeAuroline · 2015-09-27T19:36:17.000Z

Yeah, I know. I’m just relaying the error so you’ve got a little indication on what’s going wrong now. Though you probably already know.

Personally, I don’t care either way. I’m just glad to have the ammo rack parts. Automatic turrets or not, no big deal to me. I don’t use them in the first place.

Random_dragon · 2015-09-27T19:41:17.000Z

Ammo racks do sound useful, though. I’m guessing the primary error is the M2 Browning turret, which was used on the atomic mini-tank, was removed?

I’ll need to find the latest version of his mod and see what else is broken.

EDIT: Looks like it’s literally just the removal of the M2 Browning turret. I could fix this easily by giving it a laser turret, but I’m really hoping he goes back on the “undo overrides” idea before PRing this.

Then again, if I have to make every tank cannon non-manual, I guess that’ll solve the endless questions about why they can’t fire the main guns…

Could just add the m2 browning as part of the tank mod so it works retroactively with worlds that would update…

Random_dragon · 2015-09-27T22:16:05.000Z

Might work. I have no idea what occurs with overrides defined in multiple mods though.
