@jacob1 Suggestion: ARAY's beam can be passing through LDTC (tmp2=16)

What is the point? Why should we change this? DTEC doesn't allow ARAY beams to pass through, so I don't see why it LDTC should.

Also, I don't like completely arbitrary settings like "If LDTC's 0x10 tmp2 flag is set, allow ARAY beams to pass through". That's incredibly obscure, it should either always or never let it through.

Yes, this is exaclty why jacob1 asked what the point was. Because you can achieve this without changing the source.

maybe replace if (rt != PT_INWR && (rt != PT_SPRK || parts[r].ctype != PT_INWR) && rt != PT_ARAY && rt != PT_WIFI && !(rt == PT_SWCH && parts[r].life >= 10))

with

if (rt != PT_INWR && (rt != PT_SPRK || parts[r].ctype != PT_INWR) && rt != PT_ARAY && rt != PT_WIFI && !(rt == PT_SWCH && parts[r].life >= 10) && !(rt == PT_LDTC && parts[r].tmp2 & 0x10))

The question is not how your suggestion would be implemented; it's why it should be.

jacob1

Yeah, I already knew we would need to change those lines to do this. I just see no reason at all to do this, this change isn't going to happen.
