Weapon Range 2x

Increases weapon ranges to 2x the default value.

I increased it to 2x the range only because light weapons can't do damage beyond around 8,300 U of distance. I suspect it has to do with how the game loads cells (world sections) and how it handles light weapon projectiles. So going beyond 2x the range would make most light weapons pointlessly waste energy firing at something that is too far. Even at 2x the range some light weapons already have a range of more than 8,300 U, while most of the other are pretty close to it with range enhancement upgrades.

Heavy weapons can hit and do damage beyond the 8,300 U limit of light weapons. From my testing you can't select / click on objects (like an asteroid) until its within 17,000 U even if you visually see it 25,000 U away. So increasing heavy weapon range to 3x or more would be mostly pointless since you can't even click on an object to target it in order to fire.

There is an older mod called "UltimateSpaceBattle" by Azarath that increase weapon ranges to 10x, though it doesn't fully work due to the limitations I describe above.
