Let me laser down asteroids!

MBy marc40k

Reduces laser resistance on all asteroids, allowing laser turrets to be viable. Now electric damage is also allowed. Resistances have been gradually lowered, but every value is configurable in-game. See the attatched screenshot for the old and new values. The mod affects all asteroids with -small-, -medium-, -big- and -huge- within their names, so all vanilla asteroids (and maybe some modded asteroids?) should be covered.

Let me laser down asteroids!

Description

Let me laser down asteroids! is a mod that allows laser turrets to be used for space platforms. It reduces asteroid resistence to laser damage to a reasonable percentage for each tier (size). Energy consumption and power generation are, of course, their main drawbacks, and it's up to the player to figure those out.

I don't believe a 90% reduction for laser damage, on a medium asteroid (!), is a good mechanic for a sandbox game. Let the player figure out their own solutions to the asteroid problem.

With a new setting, electric resistance can now be lowered below 100%. The new value is the same as the new laser resistance.
