The little fellows are so look cute. Reminds me of the local house wrens.

Man... that was so long ago I hardly remember it.  I just tossed a few things together as far as I remember. I was working on getting homeworld ships into Cataclysm, that I remember. Also pulling up some of the unused models in the game itself.

Well, the Somtaaw Dreadnought had a persistent problem regarding the placement of its Ion Cannons.

The one on the underside sits at the rear, which severely limits its forward firing arc. And the Repulsor upgrade adds a "dome" to the top and underside, and the underside dome blocks the Ion Cannon.

I guess I wanted to ask if it's possible to place the top and bottom Ion Cannons somewhere in front of the two Repulsor dome upgrade spots.

Hard to tell on that one.  There isn't a lot of room in front of the dome.  You don't have to move the top turret but the bottom... Maybe if it was on a slightly taller outcropping it could fire over? You'd have to know how to redo the mesh, then alter the skin. Shouldn't be impossible to stretch but I know myself the Cata needs it's skin done just right or it won't hold player colors.

The white motherships weren't like that because I wanted them to be that color.

That I never tried, however adding turrets is a thing a lot of modders do and it certainly looks like you can move them around.  I'm not the one to ask about that though... hrmm... try the We Want Homeworld Three facebook page. There are a good number of current modders there.

I only did the little bit I did because I had a lot of support and I needed some sanity and balance to go with my maps.

Fair enough.

So, if the bottom turret can't be move closer to the front, I wonder if we can simply remove it and add a second turret to the top?

Like, one on the left half and one on the right half of the top? The Energy Cannons are set up that way, if I recall. That would also make the Repulsor a more attractive venture:

Threat approaches from below? Activate Repulsor, then bring both Ion Cannons to bear. The Dreadnought's missile launcher makes Fighters from below irrelevant, really.

Edit: Oh, and your Cataclysm mod seems to have crashing problems when the latest patch is applied.

I haven't seen it since before the turn of the century.

I don't even remember what it does anymore. O_o,

I can't really figure out how to fix the ions on that.  Have you checked what other people have done?

Well, I've never truly modded any of the Homeworld games.

I don't even know where I'd start, honestly. Most of the old modding site links are long dead,

Are the turrets fixed entities on a Dreadnought or other capital ships? Or can they be moved or removed independently via a mod?
