Yell if it needs some tweaking, or if you find a hack to make the power drain display consistently, or the AI capable of using it sensibly.

Thanks to George Moromisato, The Holy Thom, Paul Reiche III and Fred Ford for inspiration.

Ever think about adding a <DriveDevice> tag to increase allowable max speed when the afterburner is installed. I am pretty sure multiple device tags won't crash the program.

Not sure I follow. Are you wanting it to constantly drain 25 regardless if it's being used or do you want it to drain a percentage of that and then max 25 when used?

[Fossaman]

Adding multiple device tags didn't do anything, last time I checked, a couple of versions ago I think. The program reads the first tag and ignores any others that come after it.

[evilbob]

it still dosent do more than one device tag. I know, having tried making a shield that repairs armour

[Yugi]

Yes, that correct evilbob, though instead of adding another device tag you just put whatever would be in the second device tag, into the first.

[Burzmali]

Not every device tag accept all attributes. Assuming Transcendence is programmed in an OO language, devices seem to inherit very little from the parent "device" class.

Well, i've had maneuver changes in a shield, and increased the strength of a weapon in my reactor, so i'm assuming most (possibly all) attributes work in device tags.
