Many trader ships can use more than one forwad laser mounts if this OXP is installed.
You will pay multiple amounts of credits when you buy weapons and laser heat will be multiplied as well, so you must be even more careful and save your shots to the best moments.
Usually harder to hit the enemy with all of your lasers due to the horizontal space between the laser beams, more space mean harder usage. Regardless of you hit with your central laser, the additional ones can miss, so you should roll your ship into the best position where all can touch the target at once.
Only Vipers and a few more ships (marked with * in the next tables) hold a special laser which can fire the whole multiplied power through a single central barrel. These shots looks like single but a bit thicker beams.
More numbers in lasers column mean forward, aft, port and starboard sides contain muliple lasers.
Numbers marked with "S" mean there is at least 30m space between mounts, which allow to use Separated Lasers without multiplied heat generation - a big advantage in combat. A few ships benefits even more due to the 30m limit must be earned in 3D so if a laser placed behind the others (in z axis) or lifted up (in y axis) then can be near horizontally. These are marked with (!) in the horizontal space column. So smaller than 30m values are exists in horizontal space on a ship with "S" lasers also, just mark the best ones (smaller is better).
Cat and Iguana hold two very big guns on wingtips with double and separated lasers (4 in total) but no central laser.
Ship name | Lasers | Horizontal space (m) |
Anaconda | 3, 3S, 3S, 3S | 5, 15(!), 50, 50 |
Boa | 2 | 3 |
Boa Class Cruiser | 4, 2S | 7, 31 |
Cobra Mark III | 3 | 13 |
Constrictor | 5, 3S | 4, 20(!) |
Fer-de-Lance | 2* | 0 |
Krait | 3S | 45 |
Python | 1, 2, 2, 2 | 0, 15, 50, 50 |
Viper | 2* | 0 |
Viper Interceptor | 2* | 0 |
The following OXP ships will use multiple lasers also.
This addon use multiply weapon_mount_mode of Oolite 1.83 introduced here in shipdata-overrides.plist, like this:
"oolite_template_anaconda" = { weapon_mount_mode = "multiply"; weapon_position_forward = ("-5.5 -6.2 81.8", "0.0 -4.6 73.97", "5.5 -6.2 81.8"); };
