    Instead of having the Kestrel shotgun all four of its barrels each time it shoots, separate all four barrels into single shots. Basically quadrupling its RoF but maintaining the same damage.

    Just a visual change that I personally think would look cooler. If this is mod-able how difficult would it be to do it since it's just a visual thing?

    Also is there suppose to be a little line at the tip of the thrusters flame? I know it's not the mods I have. I've noticed it before, but didn't really care to mention it.

    Sounds like a good addition, I'm all for better effects!

    The kestrels only have two weapons and two muzzle bones placed in the middle of each pair of barrels, it's just the trail effect gives the illusion of two projectiles when in reality there's only one.

    I wouldnt mind units that could be able to attack seperate units but kinda fail in 1v1 situations because they can only have 1 gun firing at the enemy unit....
    aKa more variety and interesting units to discover and explore with (for new players at least...its fun to test out new units, pros are evil because they know to much, and AI...? dont even get me started)

    the line is there for all aircraift since the biggining of the game.

    progressively some have lost it.

    I don't know why this particular bug is resilient but it should go in time.

    That's an artifact of texture filtering. There haven't been any changes that I'm aware of.

    That line underneath thrusters has been ingame since they've been added. just like the orbital launcher animation, might get fixed one day :p

    It no longer shows up on on the basic aircraft jets though when it used to. Just shows up on the advanced jets now.
