It shoots a giant green blob of pulsars. This is not really advanced in any sense of the word.

Not to be negative, but what exactly would advanced be defined as? I was a huge fan of the Novelty Weapon Collection, and I assume some of those would count, including the Gosling Screen-Clearer, but what makes a weapon advanced?

There are some things wrong with this post:

1. The weapon isn't advanced.
2. You don't need to research biology to play spore.

I figured this out a long time ago, its neat but not hard to do. Try layering it with something like a driver or one of the other rarely used things. it has potential but needs more work.

Magick, stop being fucking stupid and do something useful before you try and attack people for trying.

It's outlined in the opening sentences of this very thread, but I'll quote it since you seem to be a lazy ass;
I figured it was about time we made one of these. This is for advanced ways of customizing one's weapons, beyond string extraction, modification and reinjection. Things like how to properly add overlaid weapons, and which ones look good (and bad) as well as other useful combos and so on.

LE SIGH


The point is that most people already know how to make that effect. So its not really advanced.

Also, the group clone, group move and group flip abilities are your friends station building

anyone know if there is a way to alter the weapon strings on particle guns to make them on a permanent 'offense' setting?

That's annoying. I always find myself wanting a projectile weapon whose projectiles are very fast for my Flyswatter anti-fighter ships, but won't be a Point Defense tank. The closest I've gotten was a souped up Flak gun, but particle guns are too reliable for defense.
Back to the drawing board.
