Default Re: Modding Questions

The weapon system flags are:
hidden - not shown in displays, can't install/uninstall
nouse - not used except when triggered by following flags
trigkill - trigger when the ship starts to burn
trigburn - trigger continuously while burning
trigblow - trigger when it stops burning and explodes

The way I'd do a shockwave-like death effect is similar to the Tchorak missile explosions... Make it shoot many small projectiles with a 360-degree spread, and use a single shockwave particle (like the one used for gauss cannon impacts) as a "muzzle flash". Note that this won't do damage to any friendly ships.
