[MOD] Laser Mark VI

Postby Tysonclyde » Wed Sep 19, 2012 5:22 pm

I have not created this mod yet, but it will be out soon. I just want to see what you think.

Laser Mark VI:
-Does 1 dmg every hit.
-Misses a hell of a lot.
-A continuous rate of fire.

What do you think. Should I make a Laser Mark VII.

Also any other gun ideas would be appreciated.

Don't make it a continuous rate of fire...
Do it like this- the weapon charges up for X seconds and fires until that charge depletes in Y seconds, after which you wait for the charge to build-up again. Rinse and repeat. The charge-up time (X) should be only 1-2 seconds longer than Y though.
Also make it impossible to penetrate shields with it, cause of the low energy yield of a fast-firing laser.

Is it in the Blueprints and Animations file?

Yes. I went to animations.xml than autoblueprints.xml than blueprints.xml. I believe I was suppose to delete the back-up data and resource files than delete the original ones than repack the files because it does not overwrite the original files. So I believe I got it now. Also I am 15 and this is my first time coding. Please wish me luck.

Do you even have a graphic for it in resource.dat-unpacked?
Maybe that's why it's not showing up.
