While working on the Null Matter Array, it came to my attention that modded beam weapons make the game crash.
The weapon will be laid off for now, and will likely be finished in the future when the crash is fixed.

Here's what the Null Matter Array looks like:

general_skogen only the first paragraph is usefull for modders.. the rest is errors from the game code becaue of the mod
this ==>

and maybe this too

If you can't give me the full list of mods you're using, I can't help you.

...And edit your previous post to remove most of that log, it's very annoying.

that mod looks epic and i have a idea for it can you pls make a lazer that does alot of damage and is massive

kind of like a death star lazer

This is amazing and it's probably the best mod I've seen so far, I can't wait to see more.

Pls hurry and update the mod to RC 12.10 or whatever

Mod has been updated; I've added in-game stats to the descriptions of each of my weapons.

"Why haven't you released a new weapon lately?"
The first weapon I started working on after the Splitfire Repeater, was the Null Matter Array.
When it was nearing completion, I found out that the weapon's functionality was (and still is) broken, so that weapon is currently laid off.
Since then, I've created several weapon sprites (the first step in my weapon creation process), and only a single one of those I deemed good enough - I called it the Reflak.
While working on it, however, I was informed that this weapon's functionality is broken as well.
I hope you can understand my seemingly slow progress.

Reflak (unfinished):

Meranera I understand. Rushing is no good. I've learned that from experience.

Indeed. Quality takes time.....and patience is a virtue.

Hey howdy; I had an idea for a weapon if you're up to hearing me out;
A missile pod meant for smaller ships, specifically a 3x1 that fires smaller missiles at a time, but is easier to stock (only uses 2 missile parts per firing, instead of 4). I think it would greatly help in making more viable small-scale missile support ships. A smaller (2x2) Missile Factory would also be nice, but not required.

I had a similar idea; however, I had issues making the sprite, and eventually it became the Splitfire Repeater.

I still want to make a mini-missile launcher, but it'll have to wait until I get the inspiration for it.

Meranera
Well, bare minimum it could use the firing tube design currently in the vanilla game, but chopped down for use as the base. Just for getting the basic shape and design down.

What program do you use to create the weapons skin and animation? Cuz it looks awesome...
