Solar System

The Solar System is a tier 5 tank that upgrades from the Placer, Spawndrive or the Audioboard.

History
The Solar System was made accessible to Beta Testers on the 19th of October 2020. It was made playable later on that same day.

Design
The Solar System features a circular body with a minion spawner and a dark grey ring with 2 Auto Turrets equally spaced around the ring.

Technical
The Solar System can spawn up to 4 Revolutionist minions. These are controlled like normal minions. The Revolutionist minions' Auto Turrets are controlled automatically. The minion also has a ring that auto spins with 2 Auto Turrets, which deal small damage. However, as there are 2 turrets per minion, that damage can add up pretty fast. The main tank's auto turrets can target enemies, but their damage is incredibly low and they fire slowly, even with maxed bullet stats.

Upgrades
The Solar System upgrades from the, , or the at level 60.

The Solar System doesn't upgrade further as it's a tier 5 tank.

As the Solar System

 * Your Minions have pretty decent firepower each, and their auto turrets can potentially allow them to hit multiple targets at once.
 * if you don't control your minions, they can act sort of like auto turrets in that they will automatically attack any nearby targets. However, if they stay far away for too long, you may want to turn on AI override for a bit so they quickly return to you.
 * You are essentially a stronger spawndrive, as your minions have 2 turrets instead of one, and together they cover all 360 degrees.
 * If you don't control your minions with left click or right click, when your minions lock onto a target using their AI, they will will chase it accurately at high speed, and will not break off the attack unless they get very far from your tank. This can be a very effective way to attack your enemies.
 * Even though your auto turrets do abysmal damage, they can still be useful. They can warn you of approaching enemies, or they could potentially finish off a foe at critically low health.
 * If possible, ramming your minions into a target can do massive damage, like any spawner branch tank.

Against the Solar System

 * Don't be intimidated by the minions extra auto turret if you are alone. There is only a brief moment when both turrets can shoot at a single target with each half-rotation.
 * If the minions are chasing you far from the Solar System, shoot them down. While they can chase very far before they break off the attack, they won't resume the attack after respawning unless you are within their lock on range.

Trivia

 * This tank was dug up from the depths of TESTBED Misc.
