The mod is completely broken, you can't make the ammo nor' can you fire it when using creative mode with auto reload.

Why no mod author support?

Will this mod work without WeaponCore as a purely aesthetic thing?

@Sarge8472
maybee a bit late but nontheless the info:
this mod uses wc and to have the ctc be able to use wc based wepaons it needed to be rewritten form scratch, cause keen decided to not let the modapi touch the ctc.
so wc basically replaces the ctc with a few alteret functions, for example a autodetection of ct mountet weapons.

@Ken Stormwolf
as far as i know the flares can only be fire manually and not automatically.

@=Thoraxe=
also for you relativly late the info:
this works as a coutner for homing wc based weapon systems.

i clearly should take a look around the not subbed comments a bit more often :/

@Sarge8472 you could easily get around that by using MART or modMART (which IMO are better than the turret controller block anyway)

What Hawkeye said, and It appears they don't shoot normally, They need a target apparently

do these work in space or in atmosphere only?

This seems to be causing a conflict with the custom turret controller block. When I enable this mod the controller loses the option to "find" attached weapons on the hinge/rotor.

what kind of weapons does this counter? Like vanilla missiles with homing? and does it fire by itself?

Haven't exactly been able to test these with the new lock-on mechanics within weaponcore but will they work to counter that or will locked-on missiles just bypass the flares?

what ammo dose it take

Seems to be the source of a crash with the latest update/DLC. Specifically, lightning strikes do *not* like the decoys.

As far as I can tell, these act like Decoys to WeaponCore Smart projectiles. They aren't/shouldn't be guaranteed to work, but spewing a bunch of Flares will give Smart projectiles a lot more targets at a high priority to switch to. They have absolutely no effect on other types of homing missiles or any kind of unguided projectiles.

so does this stop say mexpex homing missiles from targeting the main grid when flares are deployed?

does this confuse/counter NPC rockets?

Awesome thanks!

I can finally add it back to my game and use it with out the worries of lagging the game up with smoke effects.

@Omnium Rerum fixed

I think this is a bug, not sure but anyways, after firing the flares once, the smoke effects at the launcher keep going as if its firing the flares even when its not.

this even happens after the block has been destroyed or deleted

Is it intended that these do not fire automatically when attacked?

Hi. Having trouble finding this on G menu, what would I find it under please? Thanks!

you/anyone know if this is fully multiplayer compatible? i've been having a lot of trouble with all of the weapon core mods together so i'm for now only putting stuff in that explicitly says mp compatible ( game used to crash an awful awful lot and logs suggest it was weaponcore )

Hello. Do these work in multiplayer? Thanks.

hi ummm very cool, but why does the small flare box shoot missiles and doesn't look like a flare dispenser? it looks like a long cube with 3 holes and doesn't seem to work like the big dispenser... I'm quite a beginner at space engineers so forgive me if I'm doing something wrong, I did install WeaponCore 1.3 btw

How did you get that station to fire the missiles at you?

yes

@[GS] Night Raider XD YT

hint: "Contains a large and small flare launcher block for countering homing/smart tracking weapons for WeaponCore."
did you try searching 'flare'

i cant find the block

flares now use the heat mechanic to combat people firing them constantly. shouldnt affect survival too much

Mexpex] MWI - Homing Weaponry (beta)(12) @BinaryKiller1337

I require the plane in the thumbnail

i can't find the block what is it called don't tell me it's counter measure block cause that's not it

@wortho thanks

Perfect timing for my build! Thank you!

@Commander Kwiec
found the problem lol

<Item Amount="2" TypeId="Ingot" SubtypeId="Silocon" />

the small flare box has a component known as 'N/A' with no texture???

@Wortho ik that why i told Klime use those mods as well if he want his friend to stop laughing at him :P

@captain_war_angel if you used those two white beady things on your face you would have seen the description states these work with weaponcore smart projectiles and obviously not against primitive gyro/pb missiles

how get friend to stop at laughing you step one down load https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1302186713 and
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=925033777 step 2 build a nuke missile step 3 lock on and fire and sit back and watch you friend ship get blow to hell up bc those can't lock on to bright dots tho they can be shot down so there donw side of making a nuke missile

hi my missiles keep targeting these bright dots. plz help my friends are laughing at me
