I saw a post by UltraMantis about weapon modding being extremely hard, so I'm thinking about making a weaponpack with ideas from the public, so more people will have the oppurtunity to have their weapons become a reality in FTL!
If you would like a to request a weapon, post a reply with:
- An approximate weapon image, if you can get it in FTL-Style already, that'll be great, or a description
- weapon name
- An approximate shot for the weapon or a description
- Stats (fire chance breach chance, etc)
- a description or origin of the weapon (e.g. developed by engi scientists in galactic war XVI, this weapon is known to destroy entire ships in one blast, or made by the mantis clan Kazaakiplethikalliki, this weapon is a deadly combo of mantis strength and engi technology, liberated from defenseless transports, etc.
This is probably going to be a side project so don't expect fast results, but I'll probably get to it since the challenge of it seems kinda fun. For those of you who follow my Event Mod, I don't really do it anymore since it's gotten from it being fun and challenging to just repetitive copying and pasting.
