Adds some new ship weapons from competing manufacturers. For those who want to recklessly fill the void with munitions.
Adds:
New machine guns with a very high rate of fire, including experimental anti-shield munitions;
New missiles;
New Lasers;
New Particle cannon
Where are the Gatling guns?? Whether this is addressed in fiction or not I felt that a space game without rapid fire bullet sprayers is less of a space game. So to that end…
The manufacturers of the Settled Systems have been pushing the boundaries with their vacuum safe rapid fire weapons and have released experimental new weapon types. Corporate competition and espionage is rife and new and bizarre weapons have flooded the vendors.
The weapons have semi lenient level locks, needing starship design 3/4 and level 38 to unlock the last weapon in each series. The level requirement may be a bit off as I think there’s some behind the scenes maths which the CK hides.
There are leveled variants for most weapons, so that you frequently unlock new options as you play in a natural way.
These should show up at all good outfitters near you (who also sell those manufacturers) and are balanced (I hope) to fall between their existing lines. The vanilla automatic weapons fire faster than their base variants but do less shield damage, so these experimental variants do even less shield damage but fire much much faster. This is inverted for the anti-shield munitions.
Anti-module effects do little damage but are likely to cause crit effects such as blown reactors, engines, or crew kills. Great for a pirate!

The stats for each series, for those curious:
“Ammo” is basically the energy pool for the weapon. Higher = longer until the shooting ends.
“DPS” is damage per second, an internal calculation, affected by DTSHIELD.
“DTSHIELD” is an internal calc for shield damage. 1 > 5 is a noticeable jump against a lvl 30 pirate ship.
Shinigami
In general, these do less to a shielded target but more once the shields are down. Crit multiplier is lower though. Range 1000.

I’m pretty happy with how they’ve come out right now, I was expecting them to sound awful but they’re fine with the vanilla sound. I would appreciate feedback as I continue to update! Do tell me if they’re too strong or weak etc. DPS as written may sound high but the DT shield is pretty meaningless at their level and gets factored in.
