And/or Flavor text on the ones we currently have to explain why they also work on plasma/laser
How much noise does a laser gun make? Is it a loud hum? A hissing noise as hot coolant gas is vented from the gun? I feel like addressing the noise created by the gun is the first step in determining a way to silence it.
Such questions are contained in #273, which while greenlit has been sitting quietly in a state of neglect for months while we've been working on more fundamental systems.
A laser in real life that is powered by banks of capacitors makes a tell-tale electric "snap" noise. It seems fair to me to expect a similar thing to happen with normal laser weapons in CX.
Assigning to Masterdiekillsu who it sounds like has some ideas.
Especially barrel attachments; a lot of the existing attachments only make sense for ballistic weapons. There is also no way of silencing a laser weapon.
