Do they float?
Charlysub 7 OCT 2015 a las 8:25 
Oh ok Thanks !

Thanx for comment.
This is an old item, new one is here:

New torpedoes with guidance system.
Charlysub 7 OCT 2015 a las 6:41 
Awesome ! Just tried and the torpedo are devastating.
One problem though, the 1st torpedo work properly but the 2nd is really slow !
Dynd 24 AGO 2015 a las 15:26 
Could you try and fix?
Maloo 10 AGO 2015 a las 1:40 
ah I see, I cant wait till there fixed I love the idea.
Pennywise  [autor] 9 AGO 2015 a las 23:41 
yes, after update 1.093 they need to be rebuilt. container mass needs more thrusters.
Maloo 9 AGO 2015 a las 20:18 
I done everything the Instructions said, but the Torpedoes just shot off like are bunch of drunks and dont seek there target
Werewolf 17 JUL 2015 a las 22:41 
My C# skills are decidedly lacking otherwise, I'd try myself. I look forward to seeing your prototype and code.
Pennywise  [autor] 17 JUL 2015 a las 21:27 
The only way i knew was using laser antenna connection. it's slow and a bit unstable, but i gonna try it to make torpedo guided.
Werewolf 17 JUL 2015 a las 19:42 
So, here is a question for you; Is it possible (do you know) to transmit the target data from a remote targeting apparatus to another grid?

I did a little looking through the community API but did not find an answer. I ask because it would allow one to 'paint' even moving targets for any number of torpedos/missiles to attack. The same logic could be used to more precisely target remote turrets.
Comet 16 JUL 2015 a las 20:57 
wooooo!
Pennywise  [autor] 16 JUL 2015 a las 13:00 
After last update it works again.
Chibi_Senpai 29 MAY 2015 a las 19:11 
looks almost like my design lol then again anything is almost the same
Zenkari 14 MAY 2015 a las 17:07 
there is something you need to add in the description. it really only works on stationary targets. oh once i pressed 5 before 4, the torpedos launched went out to 500 meters turned back around and both hit me so lol
Comet 20 ABR 2015 a las 13:23 
Regardless, I'll keep an eye out for any developments on the container break physics. These things are just too cool to give up on.
Pennywise  [autor] 20 ABR 2015 a las 12:57 
i wonder myself if it's bug or not.
it became so after update with decompression effect on floating objects. so i hope, it's just a bug wich will be fixed sooner or later.
also just guess what happens to moving cargo ship if one of containers get destroyed.
Comet 20 ABR 2015 a las 11:06 
Does anyone know if the new objects from the container spawning with zero momentum is a bug or a specific fix?
SievertChaser 18 ABR 2015 a las 3:07 
We need radar so much now!
BlackRedDead 16 ABR 2015 a las 23:30 
wow, very amazing! :-)
but if the target moves the missles will flow into themselfes?!
is it possible to add an "autolock" function to lock them to the nearest target after a certain distance away from coordinates or after a certain fly distance (to avoid self locking^^)
so basicly the request is a homing missle :D
DOESNT MEAN YOU WORK ISNT AMAZING!!! :)
would try to build some anti station turret missles with it^^
Orinoco 16 ABR 2015 a las 13:03 
Thanks!
Pennywise  [autor] 16 ABR 2015 a las 3:03 
yes, there function calculating intersection of 2 beams (actually, not intersection but the point, where distance between 2 beams is minimal, cause it's impossible to target the same point)
you can check the target gps calculation tool here:

Orinoco 15 ABR 2015 a las 21:13 
I'm curious about how you manage to get the GPS coordinates just from looking through a camera. Do you use some kind of triangulation method?

I'm also wondering if you've thought of export that it's own mod. It could be very useful to be able to get coords.
piraneous 12 ABR 2015 a las 22:23 
thats a shame. that weapon was awesome!
Pennywise  [autor] 12 ABR 2015 a las 1:13 
it seems, after last updates, when moving container is destroyed, items from container have zero speed. so ingots dont hit the target.
Null_Pointer_Exception 11 ABR 2015 a las 19:47 
ARC TANGENTTTTTT
piraneous 11 ABR 2015 a las 19:33 
have they nerfed this completely? doesn't seem to do anything to the target anymore
LtMadWolf 1 ABR 2015 a las 11:45 
I really don't recomend decoys at all any way
Pennywise  [autor] 1 ABR 2015 a las 1:23 
but sometimes it still penetrates 12 heavy blocks.
i guess if we set anti-turret maneuvring off, it will be more stable, but there is no ship with even 3 layers of heavy armor, so i prefere to save on decoys.
Pennywise  [autor] 1 ABR 2015 a las 1:21 
it's unstable.
i've noticed damage slightly decreased, now it's 5-10 heavy blocks.
LtMadWolf 31 MAR 2015 a las 20:18 
Oh hey so just recently they made it to where you can not go 10 deep now. They have nerfed missles and warheads blast. You can how ever get through 5 deep now (Heavy Armour).
LethalOwl 31 MAR 2015 a las 15:59 
Alright, thanks.
Pennywise  [autor] 31 MAR 2015 a las 10:33 
Iron ingots in container. It's an old trick.
LethalOwl 31 MAR 2015 a las 8:14 
Code is not a mod, Mad - It's something you can simply add to computer blocks to get a special effect from it. But code or no code, how do you get 2 simple missiles to get through 10 layers?
LtMadWolf 31 MAR 2015 a las 0:52 
The code is a mod
Pennywise  [autor] 30 MAR 2015 a las 22:23 
no mods.
LtMadWolf 30 MAR 2015 a las 20:12 
They are modded
LethalOwl 30 MAR 2015 a las 15:09 
So.. How do these get through 10 layers, if they're not modded?
Hivemind_Alpha 30 MAR 2015 a las 10:40 
@Ultimationrogue, basically like a MIRV? (Multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle)
Ultima 29 MAR 2015 a las 17:38 
This is a tough suggestion, but what if there was a torpedo that was just like this one, but larger and held two smaller torpedos on the inside, that weren't for penetrating armor but were instead decoys to confuse turrets / players? The smaller ones would launch on the player's command and would fly away from the torpedo slightly. I'm no good at explaining things so if this was too vague of an idea, just say so. I can try to explain it better if I have to.
Lynnuxx 28 MAR 2015 a las 17:28 
Just tested it on my heavily defended target. One torpedo was damaged but still made a hole 3..4 blocks deep. The other one went through (my target has 6 layers). Was considering to have a decoy torpedo or two launched together with the normal ones but your demo shows this isn't necessary. Nice !
Pennywise  [autor] 28 MAR 2015 a las 12:37 
Yes, it's possible, you need to load torpedoes with iron after welding.
I gonna make a ship but need to try guiding via laser antenna first.
Mercury 28 MAR 2015 a las 12:14 
Rad.. I'd like to build a submarine looking ship that launches from the deck, and then welds together a new set inside the bays hehe
Charles V+III=VIII+VIII=XVI 28 MAR 2015 a las 5:22 
ok i' ll try thanks (:
kampfratte 28 MAR 2015 a las 4:50 
this is so cool - thank you very much
Pennywise  [autor] 28 MAR 2015 a las 4:27 
try delete/download world from workshop again
check if all blocks in ship and torpedoes are named in english after that.
if it don't works, check prog blocks, one of them should show exception in detailed info.
if there is smth about "block/entity not found" then problem is in blocks naming.
Charles V+III=VIII+VIII=XVI 28 MAR 2015 a las 3:31 
hi, i tried to launch my game in english, bu it don' t walks any more, doyou have any other idea ?
Pennywise  [autor] 28 MAR 2015 a las 3:03 
i just hope to get free time this weekend for changing torpedo to vector guided. Everything should work ok, but need some testing.
crazysam 27 MAR 2015 a las 17:26 
how is turning the missile into a vector guided one working out?
Charles V+III=VIII+VIII=XVI 27 MAR 2015 a las 12:49 
strange, isn't it ? it don' t walks ):
if not, just go see in my creations (:
bye thankyou for everything !
