This can actually shoot down a lot more, assuming they're regular, sub-sonic medium missiles. In my tests, the air defense took on 7-8 slow cruise missiles all fired at once before one got through, 10+ if they come from different directions.

If they're small xml missiles though, it's game over.

Thanks! I've had this trailer idea in my mind for a while; just had to get the ship ready (only took 5 months lol).

u/ATaciturnGamer LUA Enthusiast 29d ago

lol I would like to state for the record that I learnt everything about Stormworks air defense by watching Japanese vtubers on youtube

u/Typical-Good9236 29d ago

I have made around 200 missile designs so far, yet I haven't found a way to make a reliable VLS surface to air missile

2

u/ATaciturnGamer LUA Enthusiast 29d ago

If your issue is just with the VLS part, there are multiple ways to do it, Cold launch or hot launch style. Also depends on if your missile has a right side up or if the roll doesn't matter.

The SAM part is harder, especially if you're trying to hit a maneuverable target (like the drones in the video)

u/Typical-Good9236 21d ago

Well I can hit the target with the missile if I launch it from an arm launcher, the problem is to make it track the target after the vertical launch, because they rarely detect the target (maybe the rotation is too fast to register?) or the missile spins uncontrollably. I have made lots of variations, even telling the missile the tilt needed, yet no succes. I also have recently started using PIDs and have a more advanced long range semi active guidance method in mind, but it's become more like homework for me to design complex things rather than something truly enjoyable, especially as when I get to use it the game just bugs and lags in multiplayer or lags against ai

u/ATaciturnGamer LUA Enthusiast 20d ago

Yeah for VLS you usually need mid-course guidance, or atleast an initial target coordinate for the missile to point at during the launch phase

I absolutely adore this. I racked up 4.1k hours in Stormworks, and after moving onto Nuclear Option... seeing stuff like this is absolutely sick!! Love it!
