Trigger a short slowdown after switching to a ship with Neural Link
« on: April 26, 2024, 05:14:03 AM »
Making my own modded neural-link adjacent ability currently, and i noticed that giving the ability a bit of slowdown on switch helps to give the ability some impact, and makes it more comfortable to use.
Just a three times time slow down (applied to the engine only, not the ship) that decays over a 4th or half of a second feels pretty good as it doesnt feel disruptive, and feels a bit fairer when you swap in to a new situation.

Hey, that's pretty neat! Not sure when I'll get a chance to mess with this, but I'll keep it in mind - from the video, it indeed does not seem disruptive and feels good. Nice work!
