*insert interesting title here I'm lazy and tired*
Time for random whatsit.

1. Would it be possible to make a healing gun using stream, FOF and negative damage? Would it still count as treachery if you shot teammates with it?


2. What does $accuracy actually govern? The aim, the firing rate, what?


3. I cannot for the life of me decide on an overall color scheme for my two oldest fighters (my new one I have something in mind) and I don't want to to "grey, grey, black, grey, grey, black, grey, COLOUR, grey, grey". Anyone got any artistic inspirations?


4. What if in BtRL style mods where you don't get tanky recharge shields, hull breaches were near instantly lethal but even the smallest fighter has deflector shields that use a battery by themselves so that they don't regenerate, giving you more total armor but distributed into four sections you can drain and bolster?

Re: I work at burger king making flame-broiled whoppers
My favorite color-scheme (for lego ships, anyway) is black + blue.

kool, thanks. i'll see what i can come up with.

Re: *insert interesting title here I'm lazy and tired*
Well I have managed to find out that negetive damage does not infact heal and that shield mechanics are crap because you have an obsolete shield bar in the way. Also I'm still completely lost for artistic motivation. None of those colors look good on my ships.

Also I tried to make a new arc for the HUD but for some reason the game is displaying the bar in a different place then the arc. Actually higher than default too, not lower.

I've actually had all those legos sets before ... and having a healing weapon would make escort missions easier, for sure ... although Command will probably court martial you for firing on friendly ships.
