I have done some experimentation and there does seem to be a problem with weapons. I was not able to get L/R turrets to fire but was able to get the first of the six for the upper turret to fire but not the other five.

One of the things I am suspicious of is the fact that when you move into the side turrets it almost appears as if you are in the body of the ship. There are obsticles to firing in every direction, wonder if the engine tries to prevent firing upon your self.
Also only the first four main weapons fire, though that is more than enough to take out a lot of xenon/pirates etc, etc.

I have tried installing the Centaur version but the ship still seems the same. Not sure if it should look different.

I have a handle on why its not working, but not yet on how to fix it.

Now that sounds interesting... please explain what you mean by stock centaur? bod file?Jsangster wrote: Im having a problem using the tractor beam in the centaur version of the gunbus.
it fires what looks to be a khaak weapon, but does nothing else, cant attach a tractor beam to anything.
now i used a regular stock centaur and it works just fine.

At the moment, I cant resolve the problems.
Observe and Northstar are both doing documentation on the areas the problems lie in.
For now, they are good ships for using as a UT, and the UT script and their shields should keep them alive by jumping them when attacked, so the lack of turrents wont matter too much.
But dont use them as a personal ship and do a trip accross xenon space.
John,
I am actually using one as a personal ship. With the weapons compatability and the shields it works well. Just load the first four primary weapons with good stuff and the first mount on the upper turret with powerful fast firing weapons and you can - with care - take on a Xenon sector and most Pirate stations. Would suggest combining this with Stevio's shipyard/weapons scripts.
I look forward to the eventual use of all weapon mounts but still like what you have done so far.

ive started using them as OOS guards as well, with the big guns, I have yet to see one destroyed...
I have three of them, and three M2's guarding xenon sector 598 which i have cleared out.
every once in a while xenon spawn in there, but my guys take care of them. In combination with the player jump to protect script, which i have another 4 Gunbuses part of, they mop up everything thrown at them so far..
