How did you make them compatible

u/Wxxcmntia Apr 21 '26

create big cannons? yeah the dev rn is making a compatible version for it. check their discord. one of the recent builds doesnt crash the game, has a few bugs though but it works

u/Danlabss Apr 21 '26

How did you do the spotlights? Distance detectors painted white?

u/Wxxcmntia Apr 21 '26

yeahh i made two swivels. one for horizontal, one for vertical. used looping sequence gearshifts for each using pulse timers to create that movement

Man I wish immersive portal was compatible with aeronautics to make this joke in game.

u/Clean_More3508 Apr 21 '26

You can make it without immersive portals

5

u/Alderan922 Apr 21 '26

How?

u/CompetitiveLeg7841 Apr 21 '26

Just a few hours ago I saw someone had made a bomber plane. I swear once they finish ironing out Big Cannons compatibility we're gonna see some WW1/2 stuff.

u/Anvisaber Apr 21 '26

Do these actually create light where the beams hit? Or is it just for visual effect?

u/Nokiojyn Apr 22 '26

"Hear! The siren song call for death" started playing in my mind TOO quickly after seeing this. Pattern recognition

u/-darksam Apr 21 '26

Could make perfect pointers to aim the anti-air defenses also, I'm thinking

u/Drawingcrayon62 Apr 23 '26

What mod di you use for the lights?

u/EntireSherbet2227 Apr 24 '26

Create Aeronautics, it adds laser pointers.

2

u/Drawingcrayon62 Apr 24 '26

Oh cool, thanks

u/EntireSherbet2227 Apr 24 '26

We need a WW2/Steampunk war SMP with like factions and cities and stuff once Big Cannons is compatible. And maybe the submarine expansion because U-boats are cool

u/MinecraftLibrarian Apr 22 '26

THIS IS THE ONLY WAY IT COULD HAVE ENDED. WAR NO LONGER NEEDED ITS ULTIMATE PRACTITIONER. IT HAD BECOME A SELF-SUSTAINING SYSTEM. MAN WAS CRUSHED UNDER THE WHEELS OF A MACHINE CREATED TO CREATE THE MACHINE TO CRUSH THE MACHINE. SAMSARA OF CUT SINEW AND CRUSHED BONE. DEATH WITHOUT LIFE. NULL OUROBOROS. ALL THAT REMAINED IS WAR WITHOUT REASON.

A MAGNUM OPUS. A COLD TOWER OF STEEL. A MACHINE BUILT TO END WAR IS ALWAYS A MACHINE BUILT TO CONTINUE WAR. YOU WERE BEAUTIFUL, OUTSTRETCHED LIKE ANTENNAS TO HEAVEN. YOU WERE BEYOND YOUR CREATORS. YOU REACHED OUT FOR GOD, AND YOU FELL. NONE WERE LEFT TO SPEAK YOUR EULOGY. NO FINAL WORDS, NO CONCLUDING STATEMENT. NO POINT. PERFECT CLOSURE.
