ProperPants Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Title. This isn't a high priority issue, but it's something that bugs me (and I assume others). I tend to work R&D, and as such I enjoy having a toolbelt full of tools. When research is maxed, I give myself an Experimental Welder since they're so good. My issue is that I have a toolbelt full of every tool except the E-Welder, since it's too big and has to go in my backpack. Again, minor issue, but it becomes annoying to have to go into my backpack for one tool and my toolbelt for all the others. I propose to make the E-Welder fit in a normal toolbelt, or if that's a little to powerful, to make it fit in a Bluespace Toolbelt (it doesn't, I've tried).

FlattestGuitar Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Its sprite is humongous, it's defienetely intentional. It makes you choose between having an advanced one or one that you can fit in the belt. I don't think this should change.

isaac Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 agreed with flat but i have a alternative. the description says it does less damage to your eyes when it still messes up your eyes when used without a mask. Maybe make it so id doesnt do eye damage maskless Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/6377-experimental-welder-should-fit-in-toolbelt/#findComment-50788 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jey123456 Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 that would be pretty cool to have it not burn the eyes Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/6377-experimental-welder-should-fit-in-toolbelt/#findComment-50791 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox McCloud Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 It has an increased capacity and self-recharges---all for something that can be mass-produced--ittt kindaaa needs a drawback.

davidchan Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 It has an increased capacity and self-recharges---all for something that can be mass-produced--ittt kindaaa needs a drawback. It costs more to produce, requires plasma, and requires a competent RnD worker to unlock. Hell give it a gold, silver and/or uranium component if your gripe is that it's self-charging. EAGs are self charging and can put anywhere an E-Gun can be.

Spacemanspark Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 AEGs and Eguns can't be placed into a belt, and don't have TOO much of a size difference.

FlattestGuitar Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 AEGs and Eguns can't be placed into a belt, and don't have TOO much of a size difference. He means there's no drawback to using an AEG over an egun, becuase balance. I'd be game for seeing the welder not give eye damage. It's a pretty bulky thing to carry around and if you have it, you could have gotten a welder and a mask just as easily instead, so there doesn't seem to be that much OPyiness to it.

Fox McCloud Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 EAGs are self charging and can put anywhere an E-Gun can be. They also have unique drawbacks that energy guns don't have, as well; namely having a chance of irradiating their user to hell and back if they malfunction.

Crazylemon Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Then, make the experimental welder kaboom like a welder tank when EMP'd?

Professor Cupcake Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Then, make the experimental welder kaboom like a welder tank when EMP'd? I'd support this as balancing action for these potential upgrades.
