M777 Howitzer Artillery
by PandaMods
2.1.7
- Howitzer shots can be heard up to 30 km, fading with distance - Added better incoming shell sound effect - Added impact suppression: camera shake, vignette, blur, tinnitus and muffled hearing - Added GM effect modules for all 155 mm shells - Kill credit goes to the player who pulled the lanyard - Removed 90deg turn limit when folded - Implemented barrel heat. This is mainly for balancing out the newly added Excalibur shell which is very powerful. Shooting the howitzer too rapidly will start to overheat the barrel. Overheated barrel can not be used for a while. Overheated barrel can be loaded but with consequences
