Modding the Beam

    Make sure you deactivate the beam mod FIRST, then edit the script.xml file, save it and re-activate the mod. To increase the damage, find the section beginning &quot;[Munition&quot;, and edit the following: <b>energy_damage = 0 </b> - increase this number to make the weapon do more shield damage. <b>hull_damage = 16.299999 </b> - increase this number to increase the amount of hull damage (obviously <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>) the weapon will do.
