Default Re: Point Def. too tough against missiles-change it.

MiniMissiles is a great idea, just don't try adding them as a CompEnhancement mount. It seems the damage is hardcoded, I added the mount that is 1/2 size, 1/2damage and +2 range, adding cost for the range advantage and it seemed to work fine, till I looked at the damage it was doing. The missiles said 30 points of damage but were really doing 60. I don't know if this would be the same for newly created componants. And yes, trying to modd the mount for more damage dosn't work either. But on a second note this could work just as well, just use the mount for 1/2 size, add more cost and then it could overwhelm the pd cannons, and as a mount the AI would use is as well (just change the ship size restrictions for mounts, and leave out normal mounts.) Or maybe its just 3am and I am babbling and need sleep.
