Auto Credit Based on RocCrafter101's Destroyer IJN Akisuki
A fictional light cruiser fitted with experimental flak cannons. Press 1-6 to fire and use whatever button is set to fire machine guns to detonate the shells. Camera numbers are set to the shell activation group for easy spectating of rounds.? Roll turns the ship. Group 7 launches all torpedoes (Might detonate so just launch individual)
If you resize the ship or guns using fine tuner the shells wont work. Keep the shells as their current size. To change the activation group for the shells change activation group of the gyroscope, detacher, and wing gun.

@BlazeInfinity Yeah, to complete Yamato I'm removing some armor plating to make part space for the superstructure. Any parts I can spare will be going to detail. This ship btw was just to give some sort of a hull so I don't just upload a single gun and thats it. I just took Akizuki and replaced the guns. I named the ship according to Japanese naval vessel naming doctrine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japaneseship-namingconventions
This vessel was named after the Shimanto river, I found no Japanese existing vessels with the name Shimanto.
.
Btw I tested, these guns work in multiplayer. Pretty fun to play with.
How about we forgot about scale and armour and make more detailed ships so people take interest?
I also think the name's not that catchy either
