Each ship can be configured with 2 modules and 3 weapons. The loadout select menuallows the player to choose a new ship loadout configuration. This configuration will not become available until the player flies over a loadout zone.

Modules

Modules are special powers that can be activated by pressing the appropriate module activation key. The modules are:

  • Boost: Lets the ship travel faster
  • Shield: Creates a shield around the ship that reflects shots
  • Repair: Repairs self, teammates, and other team objects that are damaged
  • Sensor: Lets the player see further, makes enemy mines more visible, and lets player see projectiles on the commander's map. Players with this module can build spy bugs.
  • Cloak: Turns the ship invisible

The repair Powerup/module

  • You can do this to two, three or any number of team stuff with you.

For example four turrets or 6 teammates. I strongly suggest team chat to say to stop and let you repair him/her.

Weapons

  • Phaser: Simple shoot-em-up weapon. Uses little energy, does little damage.
  • Bouncer: This weapon is like the phaser, but takes up more energy, but bounces off walls.
  • Triple: Takes up lots of your energy, and fires 3 shots at a time.
  • Burster: Unlike other weapons, you can hit it, and gives an area of effect.
  • Mine: Explodes when a weapon/ship hits it. (after the creator of the mine has left the mine's range)**
  • Spy Bug: Spy bugs are only available if you have chosen the sensor module.


WeaponDescriptionDestructionEnergy UsedMin Energy
PhaserSimple, rapid fire, straight shot weapon21%1%(?)None
BouncerLike the phaser, except more energy usage, and it bounces off walls. Powerful, but potentially dangerous to the shooter.15%5- 10%(?)None
TripleSimilar to phaser, but fires a fan of three projectiles at about a 5-10 degree span14% (per projectile)10- 20%(?)None
BurstGrenade-like projectile that automatically detonates in 3 seconds, causing area damage effects. Bounces off of walls and other items.Up to 50% (depends on distance)50%(?)50-70%(?)
MineA simple stationary weapon, becomes active when the creator leaves its range. Detonates when it comes in contact with a ship or projectile. Easy to see for the creator and teammates, hard to see for anyone else (small and 25% visible).Up to 50% (depends on distance)50%75%
Spy BugCan only be used/created if the Sensor module is selected. Makes surrounding areas of the commander's map visible to player and teammates.None, only if destroyed50%50-70%(?)
