The Railgun is a Submarine Weapon in Barotrauma. Similar to other Submarine Weapons, it requires a loader to be linked to it for ammo.

Functions & Usage

Railguns fire medium velocity shells that deal high amounts of damage to anything they hit. They are typically slow-firing and require high precision to be useful.
Like other Turrets, Periscopes are typically used to aim and fire Railguns. Firing Railguns draws power from their connected Supercapacitors, as well as shells from their linked Loaders.

Ammunition

There are 4 types of Railgun shells:

Standard; typically filled with explosives that would otherwise go unused in other shells.
Physicorium; typically used for single targets where the Nuclear Shell would be too overkill.
Nuclear; good when used against enemy, submarines, large groups of creatures or single enemies with high HP and many limbs.
Canister; good against medium-sized groups of creatures or single medium-health creatures. Can be recycled with lead.

All Railgun shells, except for the Canister Shell, can hold 1 small to medium-sized item that is "used" upon impact.
