By now, you've given me so many new ideas for weapons and secondary abilities to add to my Expanded Weapon Generation mod that, if and when I return to modding for Starbound, and if I choose to prioritize working on a new update for my Expanded Weapon Generation mod over any of my other mods, I'll need to prioritize which of these effects I'll want to incorporate into a new update. (In this video alone, The Manticore especially caught my eye, as I've long wanted to work out how to create working projectiles that could pass through walls (though also because it gave me an idea for an "accelerating shot" special ability), while the Binary Cannon's doom shot secondary ability sounds like something that could make for a nice secondary ability to put on sniper rifles, grenade launchers, and rocket launchers to name a few.) As of now, with regards to my next planned update for my Expanded Weapon Generation mod, I'm considering making it a top priority to try to add in entire classes of morph guns that can switch between various generic weapon classes as a secondary ability (such as a shotgun, an assault rifle, a sniper rifle, a grenade launcher, and a rocket launcher to name a few), similar to the adaptable crossbow, or to one of the weapons that you've showcased in one of your videos. That, and adding in weapons that use projectiles that, in vanilla Starbound, would normally be reserved for secondary effects (such as "Piercing Shot" and "Explosive Burst"), since they seem to function in a basic enough manner that I believe that many players would already be comfortable using them as primary weapons, freeing up a secondary fire slot for something potentially useful that could possibly complement them.
You could just make a handheld (pirate) cannon, it could function similarly to your artillery gun or the special could be switching to mounted mode to deal more damage or something like that. You could also make a gun that vacuums up enemies (or critters) so you can fire them out at other enemies. You could also also make a gun that costs pixels to shoot, idk how many people would use it, but you could. I havent watched many of these custom weapon videos so sorry if i suggested something you already made.
Love the idea of exotic weapons, especially as a prize-type deal! Could you do a video explaining the custom vendors too? I've got some great ideas for builds involving those...
I think it would be really cool if you made a weapon that would hit everything on screen at once, like a bomb from shoot em up games. You could balance it by making it have a very long cooldown (using saw chakram similar to your deployable turrets) or making it cost health to use (through status effects like nitroglycerin combined with a scripted superhero landing) or even as a very expensive consumable item. It would be something that feels like a true "ultimate" or "special attack" where you have to really plan when and how to use it.
I've always wanted to see some sort of staff that has the head from the Dragon Pistol from the Glitch Boss drop that summons some sort of dragon similar to that of the Summon Staff Ice one if I'm not mistaken on the name. I just really wanna see someone utilize that charge animation it does since it looks really cool, but the pistol isn't that great. Great weapons as always though man!
what about a cannon that fires a large shot which explodes as it hits the ground then spawns two more projectiles as it explodes so it is a larger spread bomb effect
Most of the weapons I'm thinking of are just stupid for stupid's sake. Like a "minethrower" that shoots mines at the speed of a flamethrower. The issue with that would be in order to balance it you'd have to gut its damage to the point of it not being fun to use anymore.
You don't need the map to play with the weapons in this video. In the link below the vic, there is a pastebin link. If you type /admin into your game, then paste the code into Starbound, the weapon will spawn at your cursor. Be sure to type /admin again when you are done spawning the weapons.
I love so much your ideas and how cool you put them in practice. I finally managed to play Starbound and i gotta say the game kinda sux but the freedom to code weapons the way you want is amazing! Hard, i can barely build one myself but it's amazing

Man you are rocking those custom weapons! You have so many unique and clever ideas! I can learn a lot from these weapons!
These are so creative and amazing!

A gun that fires a projectile that can only collide with walls then comes back to the player slowly and deals damage to enemies on the return.

thats a nice idea hope he makes it :) but yeh it whood have to be a long cooldown!
Pretty neat stuff you made there, and finally someone made a bayonet weapon. Kinda surprised no one has really done it yet.
I would like a space category
Like a black hole canon, a beacon that shots a meteor...
You should also try to do costum cars

make a wooden stake that's alt turns people into "vampires" to do increased damage to them
I'd like to see some more weapons based on the variable ammo mechanic of the crossbow
me to :D
The thing is *really* hard to use properly, so don't count on it.
A sniper rifle but its alt spawns in a platform (Like those blue ones from challenge dungeons) to the cursor.
what about a cannon that fires a large shot which explodes as it hits the ground then spawns two more projectiles as it explodes so it is a larger spread bomb effect
What about a staff that drops meteors from the top of the screen, like the star fury and star wrath from terraria. The alt could be one big meteor
i like that idea :)
He did that at one point it was in a really old video
Alexmo memeblade sounds familiar, I think I saw it, but I can’t remember which video

Could you make a crossbow that turns enemies into those mutated apex
Can u drop more than 1 unique weapon of the same type per run? I mean like have 2 electro batons.
did you get the idea for the artilery gun from c00lway on reddit about using the rocket spear ability?
I don't think so. The Artillery cannon was made almost three months ago.
oh sorry, i just thought you got the idea from him since he pretty much told you that the rocketspear ability can make a weapon aim...
heh when will you release the new battle complex or what ever its called also thanks TC for makeing it so i can enjoy starbound agen :)
How do i go to this map to buy this weapons?
This map isn't released yet. It should be out pretty soon though.
ThatThunderCookie ty i really want to play with this weapons

ThatThunderCookie thank you again
U anwser me everytime
I love u
Keep it up

the binary cannon in my opinion is a little bit weak
yeh if the doom effect lasted lil longer it will be neet but i dont think thats what hes going for :)
3secs i think for the effect whood improve it
i was thinking that the buff given by the secondary effect could use a buff if you know what i mean
