I agree, except put the toggle in FRED.  I've had very little experiance with command flag thingies.

If it has to be a startup command flag, answer this:
Is it possible to use multipule command flags on startup?
...There ought to be something surreal about a Zoid offering romantic advice...and yet there is not. It seems perfectly normal that the Liger is giving Bit advice on relationships, and it shouldn't, but it does. Dangit man, you've confused me again.[/I]

EDIT: Personally, I disagree with the idea of beams being blocked by shields almost completely.

BTW, the 'Lasers' should really be 'Plasmas'

Oh heck.......

I kept on changing it.  Trying to be more, er diplomatic, to avoid insulting anyone.....:nervous:
BUT, like an idiot, instead of using EDIT, I was hitting the BACK button on my toolbar. :gulp:

I would delete the first two posts, except the system won't let me:mad:

Well, maybe. It was saying that I don't have access to this forum.  Asking me if I was tring to edit someone elses post:wtf:

But, I'll admit, I messed up. Big time:o
Note to self, always use EDIT to change posts

If one of the admins would be so kind, could you please remove the first two.  Please?
