been almost a year, still use this sucker, closest thing to phalanx ciws you'd get, if only there was a roof version but to balance it out It'd be a bigger placement space and maybe nerf the speed

Yeah I was still using it to this day, I realised that but it was another mod causing issues for me

@chef Smudge'nt I tested it, and this mod, while not saying it's updated, works as intended with the current version.
@Bonible Thanks, I really appreciate that I inspired further modding work. <3
@Crimson Alpha CQB is Close Quarter Battle.
@sebaskebab13 It should be, generally this Point Defense has a higher DPS, so it should do more damage, but doesn't do anything special like penetration or fire chance.

What the hell is CQB?

This is what inspired my ballistic weapons mod, General Munitions - including an ammunition based point defense gun. Thank you :3

can you update this to the newest version of the game please?

Is offensive use also better?

这是我的弹药PDC的独立版本。

不要与我的再平衡模式一起使用。包括炮塔。




基于弹药的PDC旨在填补常规点防御和Flak之间的差距。PDC带来了更高的伤害输出、更高的精度和直接的火力控制，现在使飞行员和指挥官都能够定义处理CQB的方法。

一个弹药资源为PDC提供20发弹药。

一次装填两枚弹药。有一个40发弹匣。

无需机组人员重装，可提供约9秒的连续点防御。

大约是香草PD的两倍。

大约需要2名乘员在持续火力下维持弹药。

需要1名乘员在不一致的火力下维持弹药。

Now that I have a bit more experience with Cosmoteer modding. I may make a Phalanx or Expanse style PDC in the future. A bit larger, but with C-RAM rounds. (small detonations near their target or at max range)

May be just increase size?

could you make it a little weaker/different? I love the idea of ​​ammo based PD but it should be balanced like Vanilla. and with the new PD not needing a reactor or capacitor behind it (which gets a lot of focus), using ammo alone is surprisingly already a buff. Since this is twice as effective, there's no reason to use regular PD anymore. (I saw that you have a balance mod, so if you want to buff normal PD there as well, maybe just do it there with the new ammoPD as well.) In my opinion, this should have more damage than PD, but slightly decreased accuracy as bullets aren't perfectly accurate and maybe increased rate of fire so it shines when you spam it a bit. (I know im asking a lot. Sorry! Just want to tell you what it would need for me to download it maybe others think like me too i dont know)

Thank you for splitting this out. I've got my own personal rebalance mod, but can't make my own parts (not just zero art ability, but negative) and have been wanting an ammo-based PD. This looks to be exactly what I wanted.
