Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

I'll keep you guys updated on how it's going.


Dev log:
Module "art" done. It's...it's a thing. Working on documentation and figuring out weight, cost, damage etc. and player items.

Oh, and Man Cannon.



It shoots Pods. Pods with a man inside it.

The man cannon is designed to get boarders onto opponent ships. It's rather expensive to just use it as a standard cannon, considering big cannons with explosive shells are already a thing. They're a thing in 10 different flavors.

Exactly. No one will suspect that we will use the specialized man cannon to deliver explosives in lieu of a regular cannon. So they'll rush towards it, expecting to fight whoever pops out, but instead, the pod will violently detonate :D

We have uses for it in the coming game, underhang guns, bomb bays for fly overs, drop pods, etc. It's just not used now.
Well, okay. But we don't really need to turn the ship vertically to use any of those things, do we?
Also, that sector you made works great...until you need to rotate it at odd angles, Try making a really good sector with everything laid out and then using an image editor to rotate it 15 degrees and watch everything get distorted.
Why not simply redraw it?
Also wasn't this originally about making cannon sweeps a thing?  Because if you just want to have that sort of "anything that gets within that 45 degree sweep as you first start moving" thing be a thing, thats a lot more doable.
Cannon sweeps are a must. Gridless space is a want. :)

If you are so vehemently pro-grid, maybe at least switch over to hexes? Pleeeease? ^_^

Also, definitely re-in.
