It has 14 different laser weapons. There are 7 different colors, dual and single variants of each. Each laser weapon has its own unique icon.
There are 7 different shotgun type weapons. They come in cylinder, modified, or full choke, with double and single versions of each. There is also a blunderbuss with a wide shot pattern. All single shotguns share an icon, doubles share another, and the blunderbuss gets its own icon.
There are two short range omni laser cutters, a single and a dual.
There is a particle weapon with a high fire rate.

Good work Mac, I really like the Lego Icons, they're quite cute.

I gave you a thumbs up for clever design, and the work on the icons, but I have to complain that the weapons are overpriced at 3300 credits (same price as a Nova-25 reactor!).

If you made the weapons a tad cheaper, it would be a really, really cool mod!

Good work!

I liked working with the digital LEGOs. I spent a lot of time screwing around with various ways to show the weapons. I tried showing them as a stylized icon like the weapons in old NES games, showing the effect with some statistics, even a cartoony thing showing the spaceship holding the weapon in a cartoon mechanical hand. In the end, the LEGOs were the best. I am able to show the weapon in a sort of 3D icon, and it takes about 5 minutes per weapon to move from basic idea to finished icon.

I'll see about the prices. perhaps the lasers could increase in cost by 500 per level rather than 1000.
