Resistance from 23 (Air to Ground Warhead) to 34 (Infantry Rocket Launcher). Inner blast radius from 0.3 to 0.5 meters. The AV MANA Turret will now render more often at further ranges.
Shortening up the impact of precision long-range AV weapons also helps foster the new infantry to vehicle interaction we’ll be moving toward in the coming days. As a vehicle player, it’s no fun getting hit by targets you can’t see, and the AV MANA Turret has frequently created issues to that end.
Dev Note: This change effectively reduces the max range of the weapon from 450m to 300m, which is the range at which infantry most often render. Both Engineer turret models have been slightly adjusted to have tighter collision. This makes the maximum range of the MANA turret around 450 meters. Lifespan of AV MANA turret projectile has been reduced from 10 seconds to 4.75 seconds. The rate at which the turret dissipates heat is improved with higher ranks of the abilities' certification. It dissipates 160 heat per second, and incurs an overheat penalty of 1 second.Īs the turret generates enough heat to instantly overheat itself with just one shot, it always incurs the combined two second penalty. The turret has a heat capacity of 800, generates 800 heat per shot, and has a recovery delay of 1 second. Heat provides a meter that fills upon the turret is fired, and dissipates when idle. The Anti-Vehicle MANA Turret uses a heat-based ammo pool, in contrast to the standard magazine-based ammo system most infantry weapons use. If the engineer stops manning the turret, the missile will fly in the direction it was last commanded to, and will be immediately subject to harsh gravity. Missiles fired by the turret have a lifespan of 3.2 seconds, giving them an effective maximum range of 304 meters. The turret's missiles are laser-guided, and will follow the turret's crosshair to the best of their ability while the turret is manned. Unlike the Anti-Infantry MANA Turret, this turret is entirely unshielded, leaving the engineer vulnerable to fire from all angles while they are using the turret. The Anti-Vehicle Manned Aggressor Neutralizing Assault Turret is a deployed, manned turret that grants the engineer an emplacement from which they can threaten vehicles out to moderately long ranges with a laser-guided missile. It is unlocked as an ability through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash, with its certification unlocked and upgraded using Certification Points. The Anti-Vehicle MANA Turret is a deployable ability available to the Engineer. There can only be 5 Outriders spawned in a server at any time.Census API hasn't been properly updated since Update, and not reliable source of data anymore. The Outrider looks like the Specter from Galaxy on Fire 2. You can see the remains of a crashed Kneall outrider near the remains of U.N.E. #Galaxy on fire 2 auto turret update
Images of this ship could be found months before the update in the Official Galaxy Discord's ship building hangar.
Renamed from Kneall Outrider to Outrider in version. Their size also allows players to try and brute force the kill with a battlecruiser or battleship, as high accuracy weapons aren't necessary. Do not underestimate their insane weapon range compared to us.ĭue to having cruiser size, they are best fought off using Ships with high accuracy turrets. They are not to be underestimated in a 1 versus 1 fight, as they can destroy the strongest cruisers, and even some weak Battlecruisers. Just like all other Aliens, swarms of Outriders are easily able to destroy Starbases, even the most defended. They will scatter once the target they have been called to is destroyed. They will always answer a Punisher's call for help once spawned. When the Kneall Fleet is spawned, Outriders are spawned with it. They tend to stay around 3 to 3.5k studs from whatever they are attacking and may move below Ships to maintain turret line of sight. Outriders behave almost the same as Swarmers. The Outrider is an enemy AI ship that was first added as part of the Kneall fleet ship added in the then-recent Alien AI update, along with a few others (like the Bruiser and Scout).
