Dev's Limit Breaking 101 Techniques

Louva asked me in an IM if ships could drop out of cruise once power runs out. He’s offline atm, so I’ll post it here for all to use.
# Drop out of cruise once power reaches 0. # Jason Hood, 18 November, 2010.

Hey,
After using adoxa’s hack so that you drop out of cruise once you run out of power (which works great btw), I wanted to know if it is possible to do the same thing with sheilds? So that if you run out of juice both your engines and sheilds die.
Thanks

thats incorrect, damage_per_fire means the weapon does damage to the user when it is fired.

by default - damage_per_fire = 0
changing it does not seem to do anything, like oZed, I assumed that it was some legacy code left in for simulating weapon wear…

lol, subtle

Whatever the case, I’m not even sure the game reads them.

Guess it would make sense, most weapons need some sort of maintenance. Would give players something else to think about if weapons had to be serviced, if it could be applied in such a way that the weapon simply stopped firing when it ran out of hitpoints as opposed to being destroyed, that would be good.
I highly doubt the possibility of such an approach in this game, but it would be fantastic if a weapons accuracy, range, power it uses to fire etc became less efficient the longer it goes without service.
Same could be applied to shields, recharge slower. Engines could become less efficient, take longer to accelerate, cruise charge etc. Could apply it to anything, but this game was never meant to have depth, shame. -
Any chance the few offsets I found could be credited to me? Hehe, they were credited to Adoxa and Dev in the Wiki :P, the Starport didn’t exist when I posted that on Universal Modding.

Actually only you and I have found those as far as I know, that post was the entire list at the time. For some reason the effects entries have persisted as the last item in the list (#20 in the Wiki). BTW, I will see if I can find that list of the rest of them since I tracked them down for Gibbon awhile back and put them in a text file (unless u wanna post them)….

Control the individual selected target brackets (hi BSGVenom!).
