- Dogled torpedo
- Now comes with 2 ammo, shortened refire rate to 30s, more projectile hitpoints to make it worth the 10 OP.
- Nerfed launch speed and projectile speed to give smaller than capital ships a better change to escape getting hit.
- New VFX and SFX on hit. Try it out, it's just more satisfying when you do score a hit.
- Star family PD weapons
- The medium and large weapons now do kinetic damage.
- Adjusted stats and recoil, should work much better.
- Magnetrons
- Updated Sprite for the large version
- All sizes lost 100 range
- Adjusted stats for all sizes
- Berry cannons
- Reduced range from all by 100
- somewhat better flux eff
- More per projectile damage

- Medium and Large are now 1200 range
- Medium and Large flux eff at ~1.44
- They do more EMP damage
- Lost the ability to do hard flux on shield
- Proton G5X-Annihilator
- Fires faster
- Reduced damage per projectile
- Increased overall dps, adjusted onhit emp arcing
- Modified the implementation so statcard is right
- Hyperblaster
- Reduced per projectile damage down to 90
- Gave it onhit that does direct armor damage, 25% of the projectile damage
- Modified the implementation so statcard is right
- Trident Large and Medium missiles
- Nerfed with slower refire rates, L and M also have different refire rate to reduce change of ai spamming synced volleys
- ORB Laser buff during systems implemented as a listener based one, it should now be more accurate and show up as normal damage instead of unkown in Detailed combat results
Changes to ship systems:
- Sun
- Moved the ORB link buff to a passive hullmod effect
- The hullmod buffs nearest ship with increased range, only one ship targeted, cooldown depends on buffed ship size
- Updated AMEG Timedilator
- the time dilator system now allows shield to be on, this reduces AI's willingness to stop engaging mid system usage
- Custom AI implementation
- Reduces the zigzagging around profoundly, tries not to use the system too much when it's in a position to use guns
- The AI is quite bad in using the system to get flux in close range since it likes to keep the shield turned on while being close to enemy
