[QUOTE=Hamaflavian;47160907]Has anyone created a gun that uses cannons as cartridges, that cycles the action using the recoil of the cannon firing?
I'd try it myself but my computer can't run this game.[/QUOTE]
i'm not sure canons have enough recoil to power a contraption that'll both eject itself and load another cannon
[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;47160970]No, but I have seen a "bolt-action" contraption that loads cannons like cartridges.[/QUOTE]
You know, when you think about it, a cannon [i]is[/i] a cartridge. It's got the bullet (cannonball), the propellant, and the casing (the cannon). It's one-use and then you have to eject the spent casing.
I hope you guys are still interested in the competition-thing.
Informative video & rules text coming up in ~ 10 minutes.

Its not the prettiest thing, but the point is made.

now to figure out how to get it to stay stable and actually move in all directions

I remember seeing a tank that had a magazine of cannons, but it had to manually push out each one as it was used.

Recoil is not enough to move large reloading mechanisms methinks
Cool plane thing I really enjoyed building and flying. It's bank and yank but pretty easy to fly surprisingly. These maps seem a lot smaller when you have a plane haha
Also, not this laggy in game, just a shitty gif.

I'd love to see an expanded series of machines completing missions when they "accidentally" go wrong.
There are other ways to make an autoreloader guys. I'm surprised no ones made a revolver yet. Hell a belt feed system would work too.

Hell even a gravity loaded magazine that ejects rounds via piston would work

I mean we dont have firing pins so a recoil assisted reloading mechanism doesn't really offer that many advantages.
i tried to make a fire raining thing

You mean stuff like this?

Yeah but, that's kinda missing the point. It's basically just gluing 50 cannons on your contraption and calling it a done deal - that's no more automatic than the classic double-barrelled shotgun.

It has been very long since i was played like this, and then laughed like a fucking idiot for 2 minutes straight.
I'm actually in tears.

the most terrifying part is how it was running at just 1/20 speed

I can't stop laughing, this page is fucking fantastic. The best part about the swagbot is his spinning head :v:

i want to see this with invincibility turned off
[editline]19th February 2015[/editline]
also i wish it was easier to make a walking bot, would be nice to be able to use a rudimentary programming language in game to make legs cycle a waking routine by holding forwards.

Put spikes on it's arms so i can kill anything in it's blindspots.
have the devs responded to all this stuff yet? I imagine they're surprised.
I just completed all missions with a single tank c:
