this no longer works properly, find another one

DX11, i see nothing in the decription or comments

I really enjoyed this mood and hope you fix it and update it for dx11. I like to use it as a wing edge blade for ramming and melee combat.

Just Saying, thruster weapons are obsolete

It is only damageing, or give it Items while Grinders?

how did you fix the leaking from rear of engine?

Any chance you can implement an alternate version that functions as a long range high precision grinder

If you could add it for large ships that would be nice, Loving it so far though.

ITS NOT WORKING I DONE PISTON ROTOR BUT IST SAYS ITS DOW

Laser "cutter" should cut, not blast. Make it a specialized grinder instead of a thruster and I'm in.

the power of lazers at my tiny pixelated fingertips

I'll have a look at the code when I have a moment. Might be possible to set color, range, and damage ratio through naming the block. I don't think mods can write anything to disk, so having slash commands would only be effective for the current game. Since pretty much everything has to be hard-coded, most variables are used through block names from the little bit of poking around I've done.

pls make a large one

Should make one with a 1000 meter range so we can have real lazors.

does it work on a loarge ship?

You should make the damage editable, I want to use this on a server but its far too powerful as is.

can I mine with this? ... in the clip looks cool like "will it blend?"

If it's a thruster with a modified area damage, does it still work if we turn off thuster damage? I never have it on.

It would be nice if we could change the beam color.

can you make a large ship version for death stars and such with ultimate range? and of course, make it extremely high power. also, make it so it has no thrust affect

Can you make it look better? I like it, but it is ugly.

update

Are you planning on changing/making a different model for it?

Hey now with the modding API out, think you could script the laser to break away parts of astroids? Also the ablity to change the color of the laser would be nice.

Finally! I can defeat enemies by cutting them apart with lasers!

this has given me the "downloading mods failed!" error message

Nice mod, why haven't I seen this before?

I agree with Acrio, its a really cool mod. Though having a large version would be really cool as well. People could totally build Death Star style super weapons, or massive "planet cracker" drilling rigs. Even if it had an absurd power requirement, the range and damage even on a short burst would be really cool.

Maybe, (i dont know if this is possible, im not a coder, im a modeler) if you were to place multiple lasers next to each other, they could "connect" to make a larger, longer range beam. Just so you have to use up space, not just power to have a more powerful/longer beam.

It's ok but relies on thruster damage on. Its just a thruster with a long range and no force.

Awsome Mod, my favorite weapon so far (since all the other weapon mods are dependant on hard coded weapons). Think you could use the armored thruster mods or come up with an original housing for it?

It seems to have only 25m range :/ I wish it was 800-1000m at least and had the big version too :) Anyway it's a nice work and a clever idea, I wonder why anyone didn't make it earlier?

It's a nice idea mate :)
But the real fun will begin when the devs finally allow players/moders to mod new weapon types along with new ammo and damage types :D

can u make it work on asteroids? i mean mining laser. for start would be fine if it deos cutt the asteroid. i would use it for tunneling instead of big chunky drill

you need thruster damage on

this thing does ZERO damage gat damn dude

I love it. Suggest using a different housing, remove thrust factor and thruster interaction. Oooo, idea, tron light wall thrusters. Hehehe.

couldent you give it an even longer range (800+mt)... no thrust (or low enough to where itle take about an hour to moove 1 block up to 1mt a second)... does the equivleent damage of a small thruster (or the same size ship its atatched on) on 10% (if the laser is even on 100% damage output).... still a high power usage... the beam is mostly translucent (so you can only see it if your close to the beam).... TIP FOR LASER USERS: you cna atatche it to your ship and not screw up your inertal dampenenrs by turning the thruster (laser) off by default, turnign the overide to 100% (while its off) and using the programmable hotbar to just toggle its on/off state.

@General

He has 2 Videos of them on the page dude :-P

What are they called and a photo of what they look like would be nice..... -.-

Please don't make it a reactor because it make it not powerful enough and i need to turn thruster damage on

Does this thing use more power then engines?
Is it as prone to do damage to Heavy Armor as Light Armor?

could you extend the damage out alot longer out an lessen the damge done by alot

Thanks, I also reported it internally a week ago

@damnatus:
OK, will look at it and fix it

Man, this thing just cuts shits apart. Though as later phaggets said, stops after one block in.

any plans on a large version?

Bugged after last patch, it only destroys 1 block in a row then it stops

Does this thing work on missiles?

Pretty short, should really be lengthened. Yes, I had it on full for the thrust override.

looks a bit op to me
