Weapon Attribute Counterparts
What is this mod?
Pretty much something I threw together on a whim to allow the proper construction of pure beam boats and gunboats without compromising damage against ships with heavy shields or armor.
What it adds.
Alternative companion weapon components for vanilla weapons that deal damage to the opposite defense type (shield/armor). The AI and ship auto-generator even mix and match the new weapons with vanilla weapons on their own. Below is a list of each vanilla weapon and their new counterpart:
Anti-Shield
- Mass Driver > Ion Emitter
- Coilgun > Ion Surge
- Railgun > Ion Stream
- Advanced Railgun > Ion Pulse
- Gauss Cannon > Ion Ray
- Autocannon > Electron Discharge
- Ripper Autocannon > Electron Blaster
- Stormfire Autocannon > Electron Cannon
- Kinetic Battery > Particle Flare
- Kinetic Artillery > Particle Burst
- Mega Cannon > Polaron Barrage
- Giga Cannon > Polaron Cascade
Anti-Armor
- Red Laser > KEP Driver
- Blue Laser > AP Coilgun
- UV Laser > AP Railgun
- X-Ray Laser > HVAP Railgun
- Gamma Laser > HVAP Gauss Cannon
- Plasma Thrower > AP Bolt Cannon
- Plasma Accelerator > HVAP Shredder Cannon
- Plasma Cannon > HVAP Storm Cannon
- Proton Launcher > Sabot Battery
- Neutron Launcher > Sabot Artillery
- Particle Lance > Goliath Cannon
- Tachyon Lance > Colossus Cannon
Titan Weapons

Compatability
This mod shouldn’t conflict with any other mods.
