Might design that too as a warmup.Arcalane wrote:I need to post up some images and info for the laser targeter too.
This humble little device;Another weapon project that's on the drawing board is a special new weapon. It is, in fact, the most harmless weapon ever. How? Well, it does a grand total of 0 damage per frame.
"But that's madness!" I hear you cry. Not so. This is not your average weapon. In fact, it could hardly be called a weapon. The most damage it can do is to burn your retinas if you stare at the source. What is it, then?
That's simple. It's a humble targeting laser. Designed to work as an innocuous 'driver' gun for the turret system, this targeting laser emits a thin red beam that highlights a target, potentially warning of impending doom. The best part? It generates absolutely no noise. Now you'll never have to put up with those headache-inducing noises generated by other beam turrets being made into jury-rigged laser-pointers!
An early concept included an uninterceptable invisible bullet which made a 'target locked' fauxplosion upon impact. Personally, I prefer the idea of a targeting laser, as it has many, many uses, especially if it can act as the designator for weapon banks.

Is innocent looking, no? Just wait for it to light up your ship. When you see one of these on the end of a red beam;
You'll know you're about to get hit by an enemy attack!

Yeah, felt this way too.Ixranin wrote:Say, has anyone tried designing more alien-ish weapons? Been thinking of one myself, but I'm not sure if it's possible since it involves hit detection being turned on and off for the projectile depending on the frame of the animation.
Sorta sad watching the Aliens on the loading screen since they're outclassed by both the normal ships and the pirates.
