Do you like it when things burned? Would you like if they burned better?
Captain Smollett:
Assuming chem spray and extinguisher aren't altered, I think lowering the stacks needed to eject someone off of a gun is a great way to to make fire useful again.
This way people are forced to choose what to chem spray and what to do on the ship.
Chem spraying the balloon, hull, engines and guns will likely result in having much less time to shoot. Basically people will have to choose between keeping their guns up and firing or keeping their ship up and flying thereby making the flamethrower and carousal more menacing.
HamsterIV:
I would also like to see the flame stacks to kick lowered. The only reliable way to kick some one off their gun with out breaking it is the flare gun. You have to be a pretty crack shot to pull that off. Unfortunately any mechanic that will force a gunner off their gun until an engineer can come by will make the gunner a less desirable class than it is now.
James T. Kirk:
Maybe heatsink could auto-load into your gun and extinguish it if you get kicked off and get back on?
Assuming you have it, of course.
HamsterIV:
That is a brilliant idea Kirk. What if flame did not kick you off the gun but made it impossible to shoot, but possible to reload? So instead of flames disabling guns it would force gunners into sub optimal ammunition.
The Cunning Linquist:
I would love to see the stacks reduced to 5 or 6 to kick.
As a note, I think if this happens then the stacks that chem spray removes should be reduced to two. Otherwise, it would only take 2 sprays to fix a gun. Currently, it takes 3 sprays to bring stacks from 8 to 0 with chem spray and I think that's good to keep the extinguisher as a viable option.
Now, in all reality this probably wouldn't be that relevant since I find when I'm engineering stacks hang around 1 or 2 or fly past 12. Then there's the dreaded flare... But I like that this game presents options and variance in builds so I would hate to see the chem spray become THE equipment of choice because it can handle red guns too.
