Dreadnought Prime - Version 2

Thanks for the ideas from you guys about my previous work (here). I made some changes to that vxl based on some of the comments. But of course, for some ideas about the design, such as 45-degree style, I finally decided to stick to those design or style.

Ps: Usage policy is same as the original version, to publish this, please credit the author.

nice voxel, but it's looking more like a cruise ship for me tbh.

You need to use Ares' Custom Missile Logic to add additional Dreadnought/V3/Boomer Clones.

I'd really like a new DN to use Turret logic; that way it will work with standard RA2YR just fine, no ARES.

I have a working alt V3 by this logic.

Veh - main unit
Vehtur - platform turret with rocket
Vehtur1 - platform turret with no rocket
VehMiss - the actual rocket (usable as projectile art)

In this way any type of rocket system can be coded and it works in YR1001.

Of course, being like that it can't be intercepted, but that's good also (want to make hypersonic versions).

So if anyone has a usable DN with rocket turret, feel free tell me.

Or if a nice DN like this one can be modded to work in turret mode.

In vanilla you can have any unit spawn any of the existing spawn missiles, it is the missile functionality that is hardcoded, not the unit it is attached to. This is why the VLAD is able to use the same missiles as DRED without issue. All that's required to make it work is the right tags on the unit.

In my mod I have ground unit that spawns the DMISL and another dual V3 launcher. With YR you also have the addition of the Boomer's missile that again can be used on any other unit. However if you want to make a wholly new missile to spawn like those, you'll need Ares.

I know that; the problem is that there are the 3 limited types of missiles (DN, V3 and B-SUB).

Anyway, I improvised something. That front part seems to be a holster for missiles so I just made them projectiles with proper WeapFLH. I used the part that's a little more to the middle as hardpoint for the AA FLH.

Ended up with something more than acceptable: a heavy DN with hypersonic (uninterceptable) missiles and secondary AA.

Never tested how SpawnsNumber=4 would look with the boomer missiles.
Could make something nice out of that; higher tier ship or sub for Yuri that can fire a lot of them (4 or 6 salvo).
