It would be hard. The cannons have only an HE (explosive) effect. Scrap Mechanic devs didnt add proper shells. Cannons are simply spudguns launching explosive canisters. Btw i am not the mod dev so wait until the devs say anything.

Ok. I'll wait. Thanks

Is anyone here?

Hello. Could you add some ricochets and breaking through armor? Or does this impossible due to of mechanic of Scrap? I think it is nice idea. Thanks for answering.

it's hard to implement, especially ricochets, there's no way i could calculate an angle of the block

Ok. But what about penetrating? I think it is possible to do.

Let me sum this is.
In the basic term: Yes.

It IS possible, but really hard. You need to know scripting inside and out. Even then it would not look the best, as scrapmechanic has its limits on modding.

Adding onto the penetration suggestion it would be hard at angles but its possible by making the projectile delete whatever it hits

Please take my answer with a grain of salt as i have never made a mod.

Theoretically cant you make your projectile do the raycast and by the ray difference make it determine the angle ?
For example if it sees a flat plain and makes a raycast it can determine the relative angle of the surface and then it can make a determination if it ricochets or not. But if it sees some undeterminable data it just ignores it and goes boom.

I've thought about this, but I'm not sure that it can work with polygons. I tried to test it, but due to lack of full docs for SM API (some years ago) I gave up very quickly. Maybe some day I will try again...

I would sudgest with polygons that it would just break it and scan the block behind it .

It fixes few issues
for example: ricochets still leave a mark on armor in IRL.

so it would use this algorithm every time it can't figure out what is going on. To clarify the data.

And btw check out my other suggestion about a ballistic computer in other discussion.
