Is it possible to give the laser a heat mechanic? Think BattleTech, infinite ammo but will explode in your face if you overheat it.

[cats]

That would be a good balance mechanic. Lasers should have a large amount of energy per battery bank, no recoil, high ROF (depending on the type), and decent damage (depending on the type), but you'd have to be wary of heat and use expensive materials.

E: And maybe you'd have to manage attachments more than on another gun. Like the base gun might not be very good, but add a pulse amplifier, cooling unit, etc. and it would be decent.

[҉]

Pretty sure that's not possible. Flan's allows for all the customization you'll ever want in terms of aesthetics, but mechanics are much more limited.

[Prototype]

Why would a laser have recoil? Just lengthen the reload time.

For some reason the reload multiplier doesn't actually work, so recoil is the only one I'm going to be able to do here.

Ad heat isn't possible.

Hey guys I`m back after a temporary leave of absence (Track just started and I ran about 12 miles a week, and I`ve been very tired). But my schedule for high school is going to have computer programming I`m 99% sure of it, so if I can I`ll help you guys out. Btw Proto you are really doin a good job with the 3D gun models recently and the Samson is still unfinished I presume? (Avatar is like one of my favorite movies so please pardon me asking again). Also I noticed how you have only one LMG? Sorry if I didn`t notice more if there are more, but the M60 from Avatar is just amazing, so high recoil and high damage(But not like a sniper of course).

Spoiler:

Pretty sure Proto's trying to do original stuff from the community.

@Proto: Anything but recoil though...

Afraid there is nothing else.

However I'm trying to bullshit my way around the problem, perhaps to prevent the gun from overheating, the heat is disspiated by suddenly expanding it, which happens fast enough to cause a recoil effect. That way a cooking system makes sense as an attachment, it could reduce the recoil.

This isn't perfect, but I haven't got anything better to work with seeing as reload time does fuck all.

[Prototype]

That or I can just make the cooling system thing an ingredient for the conversion kit, and play with accuracy instead of recoil.

[Error]

Accuracy would work. Gun heats up, obtensibly, and the barrel-lenses shift out of alignment a wee bit the longer you fire, producing spread.

[Prototype]

So the SMG like conversion kit would increase accuracy and buff damage?

[Error]

Perosnally, I'm meh on the accuracy (SMGs are really snort range), but damage, sure.

Cats, opinion?

[CMA]

snort range

Snorting what? Only tobacco I hope.

[Error]

They shoot as far as you can snort. Get a longer straw.

[Ivan2006]

SMGs aren't really known for their accuracy really.
RL-SMGs tend to fire small-caliber ammo with low accuracy at short ranges with a high rate of fire.

I drew a plasma thrower concept in school but my book bag is all the way over there so... just thought I should let you know.
