Add a shell eject sound to the Artillery Cannon

Post by Jawastew »

I just researched the Artillery Cannon and I feel the sound effect of it a bit lackluster.
This clip from Star Wars came to mind: https://youtu.be/t-_1J7mjqJA?t=10s

I think it would make the Artillery Cannon/Wagon sound more epic and powerful, if it were to have a shell ejecting sound (maybe even an animation to go with it, like the Gun Turrets).

Lol the Standardscream

Maybe we could refill the shell with explosives.

Anyone wonder why the laser gun in the video has a shell for the lasers ejecting.

Maybe the shell is a high-energy battery that can't be recharged and is used to avoid overloading the ship's power grid.

All lasers in star wars are plasma, so that would make sense.
Gonna start playing again with 0.16 build.
That's all.

It has been used in most action films to date.
It appears in everything to starwars, to mad max, to gladiator.
Because of this, it has a slightly infamous reputation, due to it being the stock scream on the market.
