Multi-directional guns

[Brain_Dawgs]

It would be nice if fixed weapons could be placed on a ship in directions other than forward as well as cockpits. That way you could aim at enemies behind or beside you without limited turrets. Turrets are nice, but they can convolute a spaceship pretty easily.

CHECK THE CHANGE LOGS it clearly says \"cockpits now respect orientation\"

Although its a pretty nice touch Xd

Can you use fixed weapons to hit a target that is behind you?

 

[vabese]

there is a way to fire in any direction, however you will need a deticated weapon computer+guns and it only works for the am-cannon to, but when making the side facing weapons(or back for that mater) you need to use the advanced build mode and turn around the weapons computor.

how you fuegure out what way it needs to face in order to work is your problem.

tip: holding leftshift+rightshift alows for free-spin orbit camera. thus giving you a better overview.
