Can make shield gun?
« on: April 17, 2012, 04:08:36 PM »

To an extent, I'm sure you can do this:

Make a PD weapon with a range of about...ten, that fires a beam with width of a hundred or so. When ordinance or fighters approach, it switches on and they run right into a wall of plasma. Also useful for melee weapons!

Now the issue is, how to make the AI realize it's supposed to keep the beam on well before the targets enter its totally nonexistent range?
