    Update: As promised, I added all the features (except for rainbow and conduction). The laser is now massive, so I'm contemplating using a method heating seen from this save id:1418678 As it is more compact and gives the same effectiveness for less pixels. Please comment on any issues and suggestions. Check back again later. ^_^

    Ok, I've decided to implement the following at a later date: Smaller size barrel (i.e., make it more compact), Life gun, smaller Bomb barrel, Dest launcher, Aray (Bray, Hot+Cold) function, better temperature conduction and possibly a stupid rainbow mode. I'll try and release the newer version with all these updates in one go so expect to see an osumer laser in the future. ^_^

    Also, I'm contemplating adding a rainbow function, but I think it'll have no use except for eyecandy and will only make the laser bigger pixel-count-wise. What do you guys/guyettes think? Should I just work on making it better as it is and work on other features later? Tell me your opinions please. ^_^

    Update: To compensate for me removing the Dcel function, I renamed Acel to Fast and added Fstr (faster, duh). I'm not exactly sure how to fix the Up/Down ineffectiveness with the Acel functions so there's a chance that might not get fixed at all. If you've any ideas, don't be afraid to tell me. I don't bite ^_^ My laser does a bit though XD

    To those 5 people who liked it: thanks for your genuine appreciation! ^_^ Unfortunately, you're right SuperFire. Unless it somehow gets like 20 likes in the space of the next 2 days, this has no hope getting FP'd and will end up maybe getting copied instead. But so long as it inspires others to make FP creations, I'll be content as I'll know I've helped them get there.

    That is a genius use of pistons right there! I have never thought of using pistons for directing a laser. This deserves front page more than 70% of the stuff on the front page, sadly it is already too late for it to ever make it there.

    Update: Sorry. I had to do a bit of a downgrade by removing the Dcel function. I felt that it was useless (it made temperature conduction worse & beams slower, who would want that anyway?) and it was detrimental to other modes (it broke Up/Down functions and caused Prot mode to go haywire). Hopefully I'll be able to do more tweaks later so please chack back again. ^_^

    +1 this is really cool (or hot depending on which setting it is on) This should be on front page.

    Mini Update: I changed the layout a bit so that Protons can work with Acel/Dcel. Acel/Dcel is still very buggy with Grav (Up+Down) funnctions though. Might need some time on that :/ (what with Xmas & all). Check back later for more updates!

    Update: I added some simple Acel & Dcel functions. Will improve them again later. Please tell me of any bugs/issues/suggestions. Keep checking again for more updates ^_^
