The G0dz Torpedo Shipyard

See? Already mentioned it....in the first post where I explained my torpedoes to you.

You never explained why the cannon was worse. Again, I was confused.

I hate you, you just wasted a lot of my data. Please no GIFs

If you're worried about data, why on earth are you still watching a forum, where text, images, even whole videos can appear at random to drain your data?

because I enjoy starmade, duh

Let's talk about the Mk44 WarSong torpedo. What do you think of it? It's my fastest torpedo, accelerating to max server speed in 1-2 pulses. It's also pretty heavily armed, and can make a crater about 3 times as big as itself if it has good impact.

That said, I'm working on ultra-simplistic torpedoes to use in battle. All I have on a torpedo is: 1 power generator, one thruster, damage pulse comp and mod, core, rail docker, faction mod, warhead, bobby AI. That's it. It'll hit the target 9 times out of ten (Accelerates to ridiculous speed, as it's T/M is insane, can't slow down). Even if it doesn't, the movements of the target vessel will often slam the torpedo into the target, even if the torpedo pulls an AI thrust-glitch maneuver (Where it just sheds all velocity instantly, without regard for T/M ratios) and starts damage-pulsing the target.

Can you upload a screenshot of it or even a blueprint? I am very interested into a real torpedo. I can not imagine a future with energy shields, warp gates, and beam weapons where my torpedos are dumb fired without target tracking.

I mean in every scyfy a torpedo is the ultra weapon and each of them targets another enemy vessel to take each out with one torpedo.

Btw...is there any warhead torpedo design that does penetrate 5 block deep into advanced armor?

As far as we know, there isn't a torpedo that can penetrate 5 blocks of advanced armor. My Mk137 can penetrate 1 layer and damage systems inside, I don't know what others are capable of in terms of advanced armor. However, you can set the damage up so that one warhead can blow a hole clean through a ship

No one?

I don torpedo I kamikaze.

I don't know what to say to that. I was hoping for you to say something about the torpedo...

Spoiler: Here ya go

There, I happily added a scale and took a good angle of the damage, convinced now?
Oh, btw, thats approximately 34 Cone Diameters (Penetration depth/Warhead Diameter).
EDIT:
To add on to Madman198237 's reply, A damage pulse weapon causes the AI to orbit/strafe within 40m, not 20. However, 40m is calculated from the center of masses of the ship the AI is controlling, to the target ship. As such, small fighters would be impervious to AI guided torpedoes, contrary to the belief that AI can help torpedoes hit faster, smaller targets.

5 block deep into advanced armor?

That's not advanced armor, but nice dmg :D

 

[Endal]

You do realise the damage is coming in from left to right, and if you look far left, you see...

 

[Kaisaurus]

Oh right ! Like this !
But still, what i see is that it went all the way throught without doing damage to the armor am i right ?

Looks like the speed clipping bug using described on the first page of this topic isn't it ? ^^
Otherwise you gotta tell me how do you do that :D

It is the speed clipping bug, but my research has shown that there is more to it. For the time being I will not release the details, if schema changes warheads once and for all or I complete my intensive warhead research (both will take a while :P) I will prepare a full post on the torpedo thread here BUILD CHALLENGE: Torpedoes, launchers, magazines!.

 

[Kaisaurus]

Definitely gonna follow that topic !

 

[Madman198237]

Ah 40m from CoM, not 20m from ship. Thanks for the correction.

It's good to see you back in the arms race, LtFiere. Torpedo D.A.R.P.A. for the win!https://starmadedock.net/members/ltfiere.642592/

Im developing a torpedo design for my fighters just having issues with the rail docker not letting me move while connected with the torpedo
