M.A.W.S. Sci-Fi Expansion Pack

0.1.5

NEW: Orbital Laser (shoulder module)
- New shoulder module "ORBITAL LASER": a satellite uplink, available in US and USSR paint (2.2 t).
- Set the target first, then fire with N (salvo key), the same way as the rockets:
  - Walker map circle menu:
    - LASER TARGET on a point or track; on a vehicle the beam follows it.
    - LASER START plus an optional LASER END: the beam sweeps from A to B, up to 400 m.
    - ONLY START, CANCEL LASER and CLEAR LASER.
  - Ctrl+O (gamepad LB+B) sets your marked target no. 1 as the orbital target.
- Strike sequence:
  - 10 s warning that everyone can see: a red light pillar, a 40 m ring on the ground and a rising sound.
  - The beam comes down from orbit, then fires a continuous deep-red beam for 12 s.
- The player who called the strike can hold Ctrl+O to drag the beam with the crosshair.
- Effects:
  - Inside the beam: 8000 damage per second.
  - Heat zone of 40 m around the beam: vehicles catch fire, trees fall and infantry burns.
  - Buildings hit by the beam collapse.
  - The whole path keeps burning for 15 s and leaves scorched ground for 10 minutes.
- Range 80 m to 4 km. One charge per module, 3 min cooldown.
- Recharge: 15 s near an arsenal truck or vehicle spawner, or "Rearm Weapons" in the Game Master.
- The AI commander uses it against vehicle groups, heavy vehicles and walkers.
- HUD status line, plus map markers for the target you set and for every strike in progress.
- The beam is visible from far away and its sound carries a long way.
- New key binding "Orbital Laser" in the "M.A.W.S. Sci-Fi" category.

0.1.4

- Gravity Distortion: characters in the field now go limp (unconscious ragdoll), float and tumble; when the field collapses they are dragged to the ground - survivors wake up shortly after

- Fix: on dedicated servers, players caught in the field took no impact damage

0.1.3

- Gravity Distortion: gamepad binding (LB + D-pad right)
- New key binding category "M.A.W.S. Sci-Fi" under Settings > Controls - Gravity Distortion is freely rebindable
