The Piston Jolt! - Space Engineers

This is the Helios PJ-3-S Piston Jolt Steam workshop blueprint for Space Engineers! A unique piston weapon that's capable of incredible amounts of destruction! This unholy device fire a warhead at such high speeds that it break the speed limit thanks to how the pistons and space magic work! I go over this custom weapons looks and features then show off the power of it vs the Albatros jump ship!

#SpaceEngineers is a sandbox game about engineering, constructing, and maintaining creations in space. Players can build and pilot space ships, construct massive space stations, and mine asteroids for raw materials utilizing a realistic volumetric-based physics engine. All objects can be assembled, disassembled, repaired, damaged, and destroyed in this space-based freeroam RPG #videogame

It looks so cool when it fires. Like an actual gun or cannon. Makes me realize how much of that type of thing is lacking in SE.

[mlq]

Ah, that’s clever; the pistons retract just below their safety detach, then they reverse as the rotor head detaches so it snaps forward, and the gun breaks off the warheads

[Raugharr]

It is unwise to tickle the nose of Lord Clang, and this cannon is doing exactly that. Where can I buy one?

[drayko-okamidirewytch]

A little help in figuring how this works the pistons are the first step as they are retracted at full speed and torque, than the galling gun is triggered destroying the block holding the assembly, and the assembly holding the warheads is flung by the stored energy in the pistons. Basically the pistons were turned into springs

[kreor]

Ok but imagine this built into the spine of a Halo-style ship, as a mac cannon.

[RetroPlus]

That thing looks amazing when it fires, it's like a crossbow but without the bow!

[ZR-eiwi]

Idea: attach camera for the projectile and fire it to the other planet

[kuber]

the vanilla weapon that keen don't wanted bring us xD

[mechanique]

Might have to try this one. Thanks for these videos!

[TheLudicPhilosopher]

I think I know how this thing works...

So when you hit the "fire" button, the pistons from the front retract, causing the rotor head on the other side to expand. After that, the rotor head disconnects and at the same exact time, the gatling gun shoots out the conveyor tube... thus perhaps what is allowing this thing to fire. Because its trying to "catch up" with the rest of the build, it cant because of the rotor head. But if you just detached the rotor head the entire thing would still be in one piece. And so, the gatling gun shoots out the conveyor tube, causing the weapon to fire the way it does.

If u intend to setup multiple guns, the shells will disappear but the game still thinks it exist, so it will turn into a stealth shell launcher, with more chance to blow urself up.
FYI: It bypass speed limit check by making the game think that the shell is still the same grid as the launcher, so when the shell reaches the border that would be removed by the game, the launcher itself and the whole ship will be removed as well.
Recommend only putting one gun on one ship.

[Robosium]

I winder if one could replace the warheads with let's say blast doors to create a more of a kinetic weapon with cheaper ammo as the impact seems to be doing plenty of damage

[JohnDoe-ttbh]

That looks sick to fire it, looks like recoil.

[JohnDoe-ttbh]

I'm depressed because I spent half a year through sever iterations of 2 very complex ships I was going to post to the workshop but lost access to my Steam account... is there any way to access them still on your PC, as in do they save to localized game files like saves the same ??
I'm hopeful still if I cannot retrieve my account. Took a long break because of it but ideas just keep coming back to me now.

[JuniperFinch]

I've been looking for a weapon to build into a stalwart class frigate from halo, This would make a Perfect spinal mass accelerator

[wellthen.......]

It is impossible to find and tutorial on how to make one of these things to learn

[ImieNazwiskoOK]

This pod is kinda like Crew dragon but more ball like

[bitarmory]

How it works is simple - Belka summoned Clang

[AdamSchadow]

This thing does not fire thru anything it uses warheads on the tip instead of heavy armor or blast doors which means the projectile explodes on impact.

[hanz]

Piston? I only hear pissing.








btw this video is good
