From The Depths INSTANT Tutorials, this time I show you the basics of LASER and how to build lasers in FtD as well as LAMS. 2024 Update: Lasers are now updated to start fires, lasers now does fire damage. Instead of AP (armour piercing) values lasers have intensity values like flamers and reduces the AP on blocks they hit: store.steampowered.com/news/a...

Actually laser damage ignores armor stacking, so a pulse laser still does full damage to stacked metal, you only need enough AP to break through the countermeasures of the enemy

@shawnreed343 Жыл бұрын

Hmmmm. That would break the rules of kinetic damage, but would be appropriate for thump. Damage propegation on a laser isn't thump-like, though, it is very kinetic... I find myself curious if lasers are: A) weird, not following typical damage rules, or B) this is old knowledge that is currently outdated.

@@shawnreed343 Lasers don't take into account armour stacking because they are fairly easy to counter. Smoke combined with Alloy/any stronger material is a hard counter that's so easy to put onto nearly every craft. If they had to deal with armour stacking the poor old LH would be even more nerfed than they currently are.

You are completely right actually, I will pin this comment, like lasers do not for some very strange reason care about angles they also only care what the first surface they hit is, which makes more sense that the ignoring of angles (reflection anyone?) I shall pin this comment.

@shawnreed343 Жыл бұрын

Huuhhhh. This is really weird. If they don't have angled dr (and I really thought they did), that would indicate the damage being done is thump. @GMODISM Would you perchance be willing to test the damage propegation on a laser that will destroy multiple blocks in one pulse? If the damage propegation is sideways rather than inward that's incredibly handy to know- it would mean laser damage is thump. Otherwise, lasers are just weird and have unique damage calculation properties.

I have the LAMS set up the exact same way shown in the video (Connected to the basic laser prefab, with munition warners all over, separated with rubber) and the mainframe AI is turned on, but the LAMS will not fire at any projectiles. Is there some configuration I have to do in order to turn on automatic targeting and firing?

I have a question how to change when a bad guy ship goes below 80%? I want to chage it to like 50%. Where is said too damaged low health

@GMODISM Жыл бұрын

it is only below 80 AND sinking, so that damaged submarines will not live forever on low health, and sinking ships can't rest on the bottom but still fire small guns but not be reached, but I think you can customize these values in regular settings actually

@GMODISM 5 ай бұрын

most likely it has none, perrhaps you forgot something in this video beginning, like power?

@JosephDiveley 5 ай бұрын

Perhaps you don't have you pumps placed right so they can't charge. The large capacity ones won't charge unless you have them connected to the smaller capacitors with pumps attached. Also, like GM said, makes sure your engines can handle your laser's need for power. Add up your engine power, subtract what your engines use to move. Your laster won't get power unless there is a surplus left over. The amount of pumps you have determine how much power you laser needs to run optimally. Hope that helps.

@@GMODISM True but then you don't have to hunt more materials down. If you build a sub with a periscope turret so just the laser head is sticking out. It's so funny sneaking up and sniping out their AI for insta kill LOL! I know it's total cheese but sometimes cheese is fun=) I wish they would fix the bug on Huge Missiles where if you make them too long they get stuck. It was fun turning them into torpedos the size of ships just to slowly creep along and then ship is dead. So many resources wasted but such a satisfying kaboom lol!
