Overview

The Automatic Rifle is a hand-held weapon used to defend one's self against other players, combat against hostile life (ex:Sabiroids), or mechanical devices such as Interior Turrets.

Usage

In Survival Mode, an Engineer must have some 5.56x45mm NATO Magazine ammo in their inventory to fire the Rifle, and will consume one magazine of ammo every 30 shots. Right-clicking while wielding the rifle will toggle use of the scope, which will narrow the player's FOV slightly and cause the player to hold the scope up to their eye. It does not currently require reloading, and whilst there appears to be little-to-no recoil when firing, it will push you back slightly if you fire while using the jetpack. This is most noticeable with the inertia dampeners turned off. In Creative Mode, the Automatic Rifle has infinite ammo.

Variations

There are now three upgraded versions of the Automatic Rifle. It is unclear how each upgrade is superior, but from their names it is assumed that the Precise Rifle is more accurate, the Rapid-fire Rifle has a higher rate of fire, and the Elite Rifle is better in both respects. Each can be crafted at the Assembler with the recipes listed below, on the "Realistic" setting.

Rapid-Fire 3.00 8.00 0 0 0
