@revampedharpy095 жыл бұрын
Ive tested both lasers and ions myself, and it depends how much power the shield has, a low power shield will get ripped right through, decent power will stop a laser pulse, but not much else (will reduce the damage from ion noticeably though ) and higher power can block an ion pulse entirely, and can if the power source is maintained, appears to be able to block a continuous laser indefinitely (i powered the shield with a 100x arc reactor for that test, and left a 100% efficient laser on it for 20 minutes without an issue )

It's fitting that it takes such a long time because of how OP it is. It would be awesome to put it on a ship, and have it so when it's fully charged, you can move it out of the ship via a bay door, aim and fire, and then retract it back in before someone can get a clean shot at it.

personally.. i think thats a really impractical design.. you should make a static chargeup system which redirects the beam to the actual "direction-giver-rotor-platform" which stays quite small... smaller target for the enemy and less problems with the gravity :D - btw.. did you tried the mod in multiplayer? because the shop-desc says something like "on your own risk"

@sigspearthumb39045 жыл бұрын
@Raganui If you use the laser splitter as the firing mechanism, you can set it so that it receives a beam from the side and launches it backwards into the loop of combiners. In other words, make a square with the splitter as one of the corners with the front arrow pointing outward and the back-end pointing into the loop and receiving the laser from the left or right side. Set the ratio to 100% so it launches it backwards to charge up. Then when ready to fire, turn it off and the entire beam should come out without using rotors or pistons. Have fun! :) PS: Ion System doesn't have a splitter block yet. Cross your fingers the mod author makes it sooner.
