Oh yes. Yes yes yes.
I'd love to see a "Piercing Cannonball" too, probally by crafting 8 arrows around a cannonball, and then it could fly through a maximum of 10 blocks.
Another cool cannonball type would be napalm? Maybe like: = Cannonball
hay uh when can you relise the turrent mod?
i have been waiting for it ever since u annouinced it and i really want it because i am building a aircraft carrier and it need a defence and i wanted to use that for a defence since TNT cannon are too big
Just tried this mod out this weekend, and I have to say, I'm rather impressed with the rope mod. It's especially nice with the boomerang mod, being able to retrieve your rope if you need to break it for any reason (in my case, it was to lower me into an active dungeon, which I use for farming =p).
The only thing even semi-negative I could say about it is that it seems like a LOT of rope for a resource that I, personally, get like water (seriously, I usually get stacks of the threads that just rot). While, in my greed, I rather enjoy the amount of rope I get for such easy pickings, I think for balance sakes the recipe should be either doubled, or the return be halved. The only reason I say that is just because, with this mod, I see myself using rope in almost every situation, rather than ladders, just because the cost for ladders are much more expensive than the ropes.
All in all, great mod, though. I still need to try out the trapdoors, when I can.
Your mods are most useful I've seen here. I love that rope mod but I think it still needs a lot of adjusting.
It would be cool that when you place the rope if automatically goes down (with somekind of animation maybe) and when removing the rope you don't have to collect the pieces.
If Facebook, Myspage, and Twitter were all destroyed, 99.99999999999% of teens would go insane. If you're one of the 0.00000000001% that would be laughing at them, copy this into your signature and hope it happens.
Automated Turret looks totally awesome. You are such a good modder, dude. =]

i am not kidding you.
these are the exact things i wanted.
.. are you reading my mind or something? Honestly, its the exact things i ever wanted.
you are an amazing modder
Quote from Wreckage »
Your Glass lights and Rope mods are off the charts. Very well done, Thanks.
Quote from Demon_Child »
your mods are AMAZING, looking foward to having that cannon mod, it'll really liven up my pirate ship and defensive towers! great job!
Thanks!
Quote from Watson 203 »
Just had an idea. I'm not saying do or anything, but with all the dyes available, could coloured glasslights be an option?
Unfortunately I'd have to rewrite large parts of the lighting system to get colored lights to work. Someone already accomplished that with colored torches, so I'm not really going to go there.

Wow i cant wait for the flak gun to be relaesed i give u for that but if you could make it able to put on a mincart i give you
Yeah, I really want to attach it to a minecart. I'll try some things, maybe not with the first release.

These are good ideas, I'll try to get them in. If you look closely in the video, the cannonball goes through two blocks.

Do you think that the turret will be able to fire modded projectiles, such as elemental arrows?
They could but not by default. He would have to add compatibility for each new projectile.
This man is correct.
Quote from thegamekid1996 »
i made a vid for your tripwire mod :biggrin.gif:
I'm always glad to see more videos. :]
Quote from fozzywozzybear »
I really do enjoy using your mods. (:
Would it ever be possible to create a turret, much like the planned one, that animals can get/be poked/forcibly moved into (much like the minecarts), that would launch them into the distance?
I know I would take great pleasure in firing pigs from a mountain top
That's a pretty good idea! I'll look into it.

Ohh and djoslin, so you are gonna release the auto turret today, i can't wait, its like waiting for your first grand lol, slighlty
Sorry about getting everyone's hopes up. Due to being a college student with a social life, I haven't been able to give this the time it deserves. I'll try to finish it tonight if nothing comes up.
djos has a great mod, and you guys relize that. And hey, djos, my computer kind of got mega wiped, so Im gonna have to start up my project again, think you wanna help?

Good news, I've jumped some major hurdles for the turret. I had to learn a lot more about modloader since I'm changing many more areas than before. Previously, I've only had to modify blocks. This time I had to look into entities, items, tileentities, model files, render files, and blocks. This is why it took so much longer, I got lazy and didn't want to figure all of those things out. But now that I've done all that, I should be able to release in a few hours.
I built a Turret and it turns fine, but it won't fire. I have tried different types of ammo, but still, it won't fire. I have MANY other mods, so it may be just a conflict, but I'm not totally sure about it. Is anyone else having this trouble?? And thank for making so many great mods!

If you got the airship installed you'll have to change the ascend key to something other than space in the airship.properties file so it wont overwrite the fire control for the turret. If you don't have the Steampunk Airship installed then it must be some other mod that also uses space key that is overwriting the turret one.
Hope that helps some of you.
Djoslin : your mods are great by the way:Diamond: But it would be nice if the cannonballs couldn't penetrate bedrock and obsidian >.> well the piercing cannonball would be okay if it penetrated obsidian, just my opinion.
Awesome! Thanks. I DO have the airship, and I remapped the key. Works great, now! Thanks again!
Nevermind. I was wrong. I was using a minecraft.jar that I use as a testing base. When I tried it with the one I actually play on, no dice on the shooting :/
