Default Re: A pirates life for me...

JimBob: a few comments on what I've seen:

Images: You altered component image #130, which happens to be the one I use for Plasma Projection Armor. I will be moving this to image # 283, which is free.
All the other images were added to the empty image slots, so they're OK.

"Halo" PD seems quite overpowered, since it has more range than PDLs and more damage than PDCs, all in a 20KT package.
PDCs have 75 @ range 2
PDLs have 40 @ range 8
Do you want to reduce the damage, the range or a bit of both?

The black hole projector has the lowest damage rating in the game (0.16) That will have to be improved. I want to reduce the reload to 5-7 or so, and by the next Version, all black hole weapons will do armor skipping rather than quad2shield.

Inertal dampers will have some funny effects with the QNP in the game... I want to make them part of the ship hull itself, so I can assign a lower EPM rating, rather than a fixed constant speed boost.

Grav lenses look great, though I may have to lower the top end component's effects.

Tractor/Repulsor beams nice. They'll be called "Advanced" rather than "Type B"

And those Warp gates will turn out nicely once I tweak the normal tech manip techs.
