Weapon Max Range?

For a beam weapon, yes, the max range is 20. For a seeker the mount system does NOT affect range or damage of the weapon. Only component size and cost, and supply usage.

BUT... if you mod a seeker to have a range greater than 20 it will work, sort of. It doesn't display the greater range or let you fire until the target is within 20. Once you get the target within range and launch, that seeker will then have effectively 'infinite' range like the seekers in SE 3! So, people in the habit of dancing in & out of range will get a big surprise as the seeker follows them. Coolness.
