Would be sick to see an invasion defence. Or a space defence that has to fall back so the big guns can support.

I've found that the main problem with creating railgun turrets is that they are EXTREMELY fragile. Because of the way Clang interacts with rotors and deformable blocks, even hitting a turret in an armored segment can pop the turret right off the hull. Which is a shame, because I REALLY wanted to make railgun turrets for battleships.

Planetary Railguns like the Laconian railguns from *The Expanse.* sound amazing. Super OP, high RPM, high dmg... *But* as balance they can only *point up,* and have a *100KM* beacon *warning* everybody off. That way the only way to take out the base is to land elsewhere, and perform a *ground assault* Tip of the Spear/Halo: Reach-style :) Unless somebody covered an entire planet - but maybe there's a *limit* of like 5 per planet, so there's always a *defensive gap* somewhere. Players would have to either *find* a defensive gap, or send a *fleet of garbage* at the railgun to overwhelm it like in *The Expanse* S06E06

I designed a "revolver cannon" with 4 quickly rotating railguns and sensors that trigger the shots. So all 4 shots come in very quick succession and land on exactly the same spot. You just have to aim a little to the side because the rotation throws off the aim slightly. Haven't tested it in pvp or anything - just a nice "super weapon" in the front of one of my Wh40k ship designs, made to penetrate the massive prow armour of an enemy capital ship closing in.

Hi Jack, can you show us these Defense systems in Action, as in you try to land an Invasion while the AI tries to kill you. Because from what i've seen, anything smaller than the Langley can just pass through after sending in a mini-drone. Feels like this defense-grid is missing Artillery and Autocannon defenses to actually do critical damage with it's reload speed

@@Epin-Ephrine Well if you were really setting these up to defend a base you'd probably have some other sort of AA sprinkled in with it, and even if you didn't you could easily position them in such a way that even if you're over the firing arc for some of them the rest would be shooting at you. They have a pretty long range too, so all you have to do is essentially put them in a large enough box or circle shape to where they can fire at anything in the center that's also almost close enough to the ground to fire on the base or the turrets. That being said, you could just also modify these to be able to shoot straight up so not really defending it as a great design or anything, I just don't think it's a dealbreaker

@@zeph6182 All I'm saying is since it's Space Engineers and not IRL, there's really no reason to add limitations, such as the firing arc when they could easily be adjusted for any angle. That way, you can place them anywhere and not worry about placement too much.

I definitely love large turret installations. They are pretty fun.

Some hanger doors on the turret would be helpful to protect the rail guns while charging

I've wanted to make one of these for ages. I might have to steal this for my own personal uses now

firing the railguns independently would yield much better results

The thing about planetary defense guns is that there really is no size or power limit as you have a near infinite amount of build area and resources.

Of course if a ship were to give a good shot profile like that, I'd just cap the bridge.

at 5:10 when jack shoots down the ship, you can see all the engines are still active that are still attached, im pretty sure he just shot a critcal part, which made the ship not be able to hover anymore, because the engines before the shot were still connected so a critical part was hit.

Looks very good though the only issue I see with it is its poor elevation, with something that looks like it would be best for defence against Large Ships, a serious flaw of the design would be enemy coming directly above unless those being attacked can afford multiple emplacements in a wide enough range to cover atop of each other at best.

That is so interesting & high-speed some of those guns & et-cetra are kinda A1 on some ships in my POV but i haven't been on Space Engineers in a minute idk if they're slower now.

that looks badass looking

Imagine this mixed with some subnautica gun complex noises

That must hit like a hammer against matchsticks

An idea is also set em up to fire either with timers so that by the time the last one fires the first railgun is ready to shoot again, or volley fire

Hey Jack, got an idea for a warhead missile type. Since a ship targeted by one can only hit the front of them why not put some blocks of heavy armor on the front to protect the payload BUT the rest of it is made with easily destroyable blocks? Might be a good idea cuse it be very hard to hit them from the sides or back and the heavy front could give some penetration power so the payload can REALLY fuck up the target ship's vulnerable insides.

I've got to use 18 railguns on a single ship to stand a chance on Keens North American Servers.

I'm pretty much new to SE do I may be way off, but is there a way to set the barrels themselves on a rotation that takes 10 seconds to rotate and then locks the current top and bottom barrels to a connector, loads the next round, fires, unloads the ammo from the barrels, unlocks the barrels, and then rotates yo the next barrel pair? It could give you two shots almost every 10 seconds with 4 pairs of barrels. It's definitely more expensive, but a fraction of the reload/recharge time and gives the platform a bit more survivability if the barrels are hit.

Survivor, we see you! Man, I don't know how you held out down there. We've broken atmosphere and we're descending towards the landing site. Is that a building down there? What do you mean you can't identify it? Hold on, no turning back now Positions everyone, touching down in 10, 9, 8- It's coming from the building?! Change course, set thrusters to full-

That gun plus 4 artillery, and 8 autocanons turrets, it would be. Almost the best defense agasnt large fleets

Usually invasion comes from 90 degrees up above base 😊 But idea is good 😉

Carrier landed successfully it just can't leave

how did you build that hinge? i try to build a turret like this large but i dont get the hinge in cover

I don't usually use the large rails as their recharge time makes them terrible....... Unless you build one of those railgun revolvers.

I just imagined making a similar turret, but with modded cannons with bigger range😮

Captain, the Orks have massacred the forgeworld's forces, and they have taken the planetary defense weapons.

i would swapped those interior turrets with gatling turrets instead as these heavy static turrets can be easily taken out either by artillery launching warheads from long range or gps guided missiles so heavier point defense is needed

I wish the videos were longer with more destruction of ships of different types. (Good video tho)

i need to turn this in to the subtonica lazer thing

This reminds me of the enforcement platform from subnautica

this makes me think of BO3 RAIL GUN in at the start of the game would be cool if someone made that

the sound of the gun made me think of the gun in Subnautica

Much better design aesthetically then mine, but lacks secondary defenses, might build smaller version with heavy cannon and autocannon maybe 100 m away to ward off fast strikers?

Has anyone else heard the rumor that Captain Jack has recently been knighted by King Charles for his Trek leadership and posh Brit accent?

seems good for bursts of dammage, but lacking in sustained damage So you'd probably want to pair it with some other defensive weapons to cover that lack of fire rate to continue on the pressure

Like Auto Cannon Turrets. It already has some Gat Turrets for point defense.

Good and bad guns at the same time they can deal out good shots but at a very slow rate. Rockets and other turret guns are way better in my opinion but nice builds either way. Good video man 😊

I think this large railgun turrets are perfect when combined with Gatling and cannon static defenses. While AI uses gatlings to soften enemy ships, players can aim these railgun on critical points of vessels to cripple them. I would love to see a simulation of small invasion fleet vs static defense grid protecting a key objective.

@CASA-dy4vs

But rails have a range of 2km while Gatling have 800m so the roles would be reversed by showing the railgun soften up the ship maybe explode some tanks and if it gets close Gatlings can pick off the weapons and rail guns if recharged already

Too bad the game is so unoptimized that trying to do any sort of large scale battles taking advantage of the AI stuff is not all that practical for most people.

now can you control serveral of these turrets from on controlstation? Would like to see a whole battary of these open fire.

"Swift end" is a bit of a stretch, with the 40 something second reload time it seems as if you need to throw more of a punch in for each shot.

I would make the main gun out of heavy armor so it wouldn’t be destroyed easily

Quarantine enforcement platform From Subnautica !!!!

Its the quarantine enforcement platform from subnatica

Funny little idea, a ai missile with a large grid railgun inside of it, to almost guarantee a hit

no (-ISA (Alpha Centauri A branch's)) SDP-like preferences instead?

Two things: One I saw a mod where rail gun shots explode instead of over penetration. Two is venom dead in your series or someone else.

instead of all these anti personal turrets you could put gattling or canon-/autocanonturrets or even missleturrets on there as a defense against incoming smallframe/ fastcrafts like fighters, bombers or drones

Do you make this gun or did someone else because i was wondering if a like defense cannon could become smaller but still effective on like a rover and have like a whole squadron of them would be pretty cool and maybe even more effective than the staionary railgun cannon just because there could be more rovers with cannons on them for a type of constant fire im just wondering but it would be pretty nice to know you see this and it gives you a good idea as well.

Well instead of two shots at once, one cannon every ~20s to make the weapon more efficient. Otherwise make it a quad gun where 2 fire every 20s or 1 every 13s.

This does look very cool but it’s not very effective being that it takes a bit to reload and it takes so many resources when it has little to no armor I’d opt for the artillery cannons with a better fire rate and much cheaper

It would we great if those things work, they nerfed a while ago the range for all weapons when not piloted. Means that if your offline and someone else is online they can take any crappy store bought ship and just sit a certain distance away and chew down anything you could possibly build. Base defense has been worthless for some time now. The only somewhat viable way to protect anything is a sheild, however there are plenty of exploits that are around to defeat that that they won't patch and with no cheat engine your not safe under any circumstances unless your online. People are crappy so most wait till your offline to attack. The ONLY way to stay safe is to literally fly way way way out in space which makes it a pita to play with anyone. You can find any "hidden" base by simply watching streaming lag as you fly by, it literally gives you a visual indicator for player bases no joke. Basically vanilla multiplayer is a joke now and it's only a matter of time before your greifed by some squealing kid. Don't even get me started on they allowing pc on console servers, many ways to crash a console players game mid fight so you can force offine them. Lastly with no warning they will delete all your stuff if you don't log in once a month because they are too lazy to fix multiplayer at all, example the servers often bog so when they added ps5 players instead of improving their servers they just added a bunch more underpowered low pop crappy public servers. Game is too lonely alone, but official multiplayer is a broken joke.
