Ok, one of the many mnay things I want to implement in a mod I will never have time to make are spinal mount weapons - Need a special weapon slot, very heavy, huge range, huge damage, and will drain your ship so low on energy that it stops moving and your shields fail (because engines and shields will be using power perhaps - its all early days). That is unless you found a hidden warp gate that took you to a system where an archialogical dig site has unearthed a number of crazy alien artifacts and are willing to fit your ship with some kit (like and alien reactor) for extortionate prices...or something.
Anyways, I was testing out power consumption, and I cant get it very high. If I set it to 200, it thinks its 20, and if I set it to 2000, it doesnt take any power to reload the weapon. Has anyone had any luck making insane power consumptions, or is something to add to the wishlist? (farewell spinal mount
)
