Starsector 0.97a is out! (02/02/24); New blog post: Simulator Enhancements (03/13/24)
Well nevermind then, I'm crazy.
(It's probably worth noting that compared to the twitter screenshot, the MB has like half the DPS and an extra 100 armor-only damage on hit. The original stats were wild. Also: some visual tweaks to make the sprite fit better on a variety of ships. And, changed to HYBRID just for fun.)
Sometimes i feel like my brain has been hit by salamanders not gonna lie.
This reminds me... Should mining lasers be hybrids too? You know, those super cheap PD lasers with low damage but nice range compared to standard PD lasers.

HYBRID for Mining Laser?
So ballistic rangefinder boosts MBs range to 600 or 700 if there’s a large. Mining laser is pd though so it gets no boost.
Medium hybrid should still get +100 without the large slot.
Just checked the hullmod code in starfarer.api, pretty sure you are wrong.
