Is it possible to mod ranged weapon traps (crossbow, bow, blowpipe) that attack tiles a few spaces away from them and are triggered by pressure plate?

[Sphalerite]

No.  That would require modifying the actual game code.

maybe in the army arc we may be able to link ballistae to levers or pressure plates, though you would still need a siege operator to reload them.

That's not a bad suggestion.  If I could link ballistae to pressure plates I might actually bother with them.  That and if they could fire across z-levels like crossbows.

All things in due time though.

I just worked on traps yesterday, and I could only do very little for new ideas. If you are interested, take a look at this: Mod thread about traps

I also have a reaction that makes siege operators blind. They still shoot as good/bad as always, but do not flee. This way you can have a siegeengine directly behind fortifications with enemies up front.

Nothing else I can think of though...
