Equipment Launcher

Replaces the shield runes with different equipment launcher ammo: frag, flak, autocannon, shock.

Includes upgrades and custom art for the icons and preview images of each turret ammo.

Recommend starting a new base campaign save to avoid spoilers!

v1. 2

Updated to work with 14/09/2026 update

Added/changed sound effects for:

• []Switch turret ammo[/]

  []Grenade firing[/]

• []Equipment ready to fire[/]

  []Equipment not ready to fire[/]

  Two mod options!

  Automatic

  Fires equipment launcher when reflecting a parry projectile

  Fire the equipment launcher by a keybind instead.

  Bind a key for 'Use Equipment Launcher' in the 'combat' section of the keybinds in the game menu.

  This version includes a longer cooldown period between shots.

  There are two variants of the Manual version:

  • []With shield and spear = can use the equipment launcher with shield or spear equipped[/]

    []With shield only = can only use the equipment launcher with the shield equipped[/]

    Feedback

    I've playtested this a fair bit and worked on damage balancing a lot. I will probably update this again later with minor tweaks to this kind of thing.

    Feedback and ideas are welcome!
