It would be nice to also be able to pick arbitrary sizes for the arcs. If I'm going to give the Chmmr a laser like the one in SC2, I don't want it to have a very large firing arc.

It actually goes down to half of 45 degrees, I'm told.

22.5 are the increments you can use and have the little white arcy things show up.

SF will accept any values from 0-359 and fire them properly, though they'll just show up as empty arc circles in the slot views.

Strange, in the testing processes, SF choked if I used different increments. I will retest.

Ya, the torps should be able to fire fore and aft, but not to the sides... no good way to mod that yet, I assume?

Only to have a pair of slots, one facing forward and one back.
