 Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies -- Updated 11/29/09
Ever thought of making a branch of Darkstorm Military Technologies that are more focused on direct assaults <samurai>? I'd love to see your designs from there. Though that's a dumb idea from me. Though on another note, could be nice to have energy/gas packs to be an actual item, rather then having specialized actors for each weapon, you could try giving "backpacks" mutliple frames, and having the device increment the frames a specific amount.
The electrolaser's shock effect makes my DSTech robots cringe. Can I use code for the lightning bolt effect?

 Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies -- Updated 11/29/09
The electrolaser is ALL that works on DSTech. The bullets just don't have enough force to hurt them. Is there another weapon in this mod that does damage to DSTech? Just wondering.

 Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies -- Updated 11/29/09
Are you planning on adding any infantry weapons that use your secondary fire feature? Like for the laser rifle, secondary fire could be a double power, double energy consumption, and secondary fire for the grenade launcher could be manual detonation.

What exactly is up with the Shishi having nearly no range? I can only see what is directly next to it.

It is Lua controlled to have pinpoint accuracy at a pretty long range when not human controlled. It has also already been mentioned and will be fixed.

Why am I shocked that DarkStorm units are female? Curse you <not so> fine print... Though as Darlos describes it... They're more neutral gendered. Mrrmph.

Perhaps you could have it set stunned units to crouch in convulsions and roll around on the floor by HFlipped toggling. Anyway, I don't see why standard combat units aren't allowed minor camouflage. So, how do you plan on making secondary fire work? Toggling, straight-forward alternate trigger (like how the Shishi is currently), hold to fire alternately? If you choose the last one, you could use that to use the secondary melee options instead, as sometimes it doesn't work too well on slower computers or during lag currently.
