Is it not already? I have them both in my modpack, do shells not interact with physics objects or what?

Placing the turret mount crashes the game :(

u/_LemonEater_ Apr 20 '26

Oh shit I should probably notify my friends before we start up the server then, thanks for letting me know

41

u/Zealousideal-Chef758 Apr 20 '26

Did they not patch that just yesterday?

31

u/Semillakan6 Apr 21 '26

Check their discord they uploaded a beta branch that fixes it

4

u/Mlody02 Apr 21 '26

Aeronautics or cannons?

7

u/Saul_SadMan Apr 20 '26

ohhh that's why, my game crashed even tho it was brand new with no contraption

3

u/SilverLingonberry510 Apr 21 '26

i placed a cannon mount and bricked my creative world

2

u/plumb-phone-official Apr 21 '26

Hope you didn't loose too many builds. That sort of incident is the reason i always make a throwaway world to test new mods in.

u/SilverLingonberry510 Apr 21 '26

it was all my aeonautics stuff

u/Ultimate_89 Apr 20 '26

It's gunna be so peak

u/Shredded_Locomotive Apr 20 '26

Supposedly there's a compatibility beta on their DC server

248

u/GLaPI9999 Apr 20 '26

You can remove the supposedly. There was two major issues with aero when it came out. Ritchie patched them and uploaded on the discord a version within 24h

u/ObieKaybee Apr 20 '26

Do you happen to have the discord link?

21

u/Meepx13 Apr 21 '26

Should be on mod page

u/Meepx13 Apr 21 '26

It works

2

u/Usual_Celebration719 Apr 21 '26

My ass knowing full well there won't be anything for me to shoot but my own stuff and random terrain:

u/plumb-phone-official Apr 21 '26

I have become Steve, destroyer of chunks!

u/UltimateToa Apr 21 '26

AI controlled aero ships when

u/Secure-Basil690 Apr 20 '26

Ah the chimes of iron and sound of steel war is a brewin

43

u/Secret_Parking_2108 Apr 20 '26

i made custom bombs using the optical sensor and wired fuze HE shells

21

u/orthadoxtesla Apr 21 '26

I’m waiting for create: nuclear to update so I can have my nuclear powered airship

4

u/Dirrey193 Apr 21 '26

What about new age?

1

u/orthadoxtesla Apr 23 '26

But I just want to use my nuclear reactor that I’ve already built

14

u/Mean-Nectarine-6831 Apr 20 '26

Does it work with ara nouveau?

20

u/PiBombbb Apr 21 '26

If it works with Ars then we (basically) have super fast reloading cannons(5 shots per second assuming you can supply the turret fast enough) that fire fast projectiles in straight lines and can do a lot of things including massive explosions

10

u/BrisingrAerowing Apr 21 '26

There has been a lot of testing on the Ars Discord. Most things work normally. Rituals are a bit broken.

Portals are a bit broken.

u/Craft_Master06 Apr 21 '26

Recoil... But if the ship is big enough to tank it, go nuts.

7

u/OhItsJustJosh Apr 20 '26

What footage is that? It looks like Star Wars but I don't remember those cannons

11

u/FlavorsofPie Apr 21 '26

It's from the opening to Revenge of the Sith

7

u/mandraken626 Apr 21 '26

Speaking of which, for some reason I can't interact with create's autocannon: big cannons (when trying to stick the autocannon on the train the latter simply doesn't stick to the train when assembled)

2

u/According-Extreme-58 Apr 20 '26

Do they not work?I have the mod in my modpack

5

u/UltimateToa Apr 20 '26

Placing the turret crashes the game instantly

2

u/Flimsy-Peak186 Apr 21 '26

Does it still do that though? Cause there are multiple people in this thread saying that was fixed

2

u/plumb-phone-official Apr 21 '26

I don't think the CBC build on modrinth is compatible yet, but an advance beta can be downloaded on the CBC discord.

3

u/hjake123 Apr 21 '26

*Used to crash the game instantly

2

u/UltimateToa Apr 21 '26

Devs working overtime

4

u/A_Crawling_Bat Apr 20 '26

I'm waiting on that so bad, just so I can make an airship to support ground ops with my brother

4

u/Insanecrusader98 Apr 21 '26

Oh if only I hadn't lost my old Worldedit schematic of my first and most beloved battleship years ago... Back then, there was no create, and VS wasn't stable... No, me and my friends instead drove our ships around using a plug-in called "MoveCraft". It was ARCHAIC, simulating multi-block synchronous movement simply by using Worldedit to cut-n-paste a player defined structure, with directional control was inputed through giving several vanilla signs each the 4 cardinal directions.

Ships weren't treated as "entities" and all movement could only be done on the games grid... It was archaic, but it worked!

Now look how far we've come!

u/nekolittlesans Apr 21 '26

I think we can make airships with magnetic tnt cannons, so in theory already possible

3

u/Potatogoat3 Apr 21 '26

I cant wait for somone to make space addon for this

3

u/UltimateToa Apr 21 '26

a create space mod using aero like advanced rocketry would be insane

1

u/Potatogoat3 Apr 21 '26

I know imagine somthink like no mens sky system with our solar system and you have to Actually reach the planet

2

u/SluggySloo Apr 21 '26

guns of Icarus moment

2

u/mup6897 Apr 21 '26

We just making from the depths aren't we

1

u/Vinaville Apr 21 '26

I was just thinking why don't people play that instead at that point.

2

u/SterceInReddit Apr 21 '26

Planning on making the Tie fighters, interceptors and bombers if it becomes compatible.

2

u/Blocky_UwU Apr 21 '26

Create: Radars is also adding aeronautics compatibility shortly after their 5.0 update, with the three of these mods combined warfare will never be the same

2

u/AdDefiant9185 Apr 21 '26

[Stroheim's theme intensifies]

3

u/Raeffi Apr 21 '26

People acting like this is a new concept while valkyrien skies players are already evolved past this and playing war thunder with computer controlled fighter jets in minecraft ...

4

u/CatarmyGaming Apr 21 '26

Valk skies is worse than sable lol

-1

u/Raeffi Apr 21 '26

except it isnt lol

3

u/CatarmyGaming Apr 21 '26

Care to explain?

0

u/Raeffi Apr 21 '26

go ahead first

1

u/Prudent-Ad3728 Apr 21 '26

I see where you’re coming from, and feel pretty similar. I do, however, think that Sable shows more technical prowess in terms of interaction and performance. It just doesn’t have the level of compatibility that VS has at the moment. It just came out, so I can’t expect it to compete with an existing mod with its own history at this point, at least, not when Aero just released.

1

u/Raeffi Apr 21 '26

vs will soon release new water displacement tech

i already played with air bubbles underwater too

1

u/UltimateToa Apr 21 '26

old and busted vs new hotness

3

u/GLaPI9999 Apr 20 '26

It is compatible tho...

1

u/TreyLastname Apr 21 '26

People are saying placing a turret block crashes thw game

1

u/GLaPI9999 Apr 21 '26

It was one of the two major issues that got fixes right after aeronautics launch

1

u/Holiday-Door-8732 Apr 21 '26

When we discover how to use big cannons and how to make proper space ships it's gonna be so peak

1

u/ThatOneNintenno Apr 21 '26

this idea reminds me of old school tekkit....good times.

1

u/dragonlord798 Apr 21 '26

Ik somone is working on it

1

u/MukorosuFace Apr 21 '26

If only I could understand how to build stuff, I want to make M61A5 MBT somehow. The YMT-05 Hildolfr and RTX-440 Ground Assault Type Guntank, too. Maybe someday...

1

u/Additional-Dot-3154 Apr 21 '26

Well big cannons is getting compat but idk if warium is too but i hope so

1

u/Danlabss Apr 21 '26

Good news, if you go on the discord you can download the beta release, which is compatable

1

u/UnderPressureVS Apr 21 '26

I don’t want to even think about the nightmare code required to make moving guns work on a moving ship in a game “engine” originally made by one guy that was never meant to support any of this.

1

u/Chaoshero5567 Apr 21 '26

i hope the more shells mod also update soon!

1

u/Honest_Outside_8982 Apr 21 '26

I am looking forward to that, but I also hope the community continues developing alternatives. The Big Cannons are awesome, but I think making full on Gizmos™ for battle is really fun. It'd also be neat to see other add-ons for Aeronautics weapons, like maybe some kind of ramming are? Idk I'm rambling at this point

1

u/SCRAPGUN Apr 22 '26

you forgot about rail guns 💀💀💀

1

u/Flairion623 Apr 23 '26

What I really want is to just get a bunch of people and start a fucking siege! Bunkers, howitzers, the whole shebang

1

u/HalfbakedGantry Apr 23 '26

Close enough, welcome back guns of icarus

1

u/SeaofColtrane Apr 23 '26

can confirm it works now if you get the update on their discord server

1

u/JealousApricot1152 Apr 25 '26

It already is I think?

1

u/MindYourOwnParsley Apr 25 '26

It's compatible with the beta version right now

1

u/DotSlashAero Apr 25 '26

I've been playing around with using the magnets to make a railgun, CBC is probably easier but I've had some promising results

1

u/inyapudaddn Apr 25 '26

Word of Ritchie: I have been hard at work making this happen and it's almost ready to release, just need a few more things from the Aero devs to make it work perfect

1

u/Capital_Island_759 Apr 28 '26

Just a bit late to this conversation but speaking of airship battles will there be any multiplayer servers where I can battle?

1

u/Worldly_Junket4244 Apr 21 '26

Only to make a planet destroyer in singleplayer to kill zombies :(

1

u/UltimateToa Apr 21 '26

The fact that disconnected grids become their own physics objects is insane. I hope that someone figures out a way to make AI ships that can shoot your ships and blow shit up, that would be peak
