Solaris Skunk Works is missing Magshots

If it is there in SSW I certainly cannot find it.
If you are waiting for me to go out of my mind you will have to wait. The exits are not clearly marked and the doors open the wrong way. Oh, and the doors are trapped!

1 - SSW is most of a decade out of date and not being updated. They aren't going to be added, in all likelihood.

2 - wrong area, you should be in the computer section lower down the forum

3 - why are you using magshots of all things?

I definitely see it. Did you switch it to Experimental Advanced, and are you restricting the equipment to a specific era?

Yeah I was about to suggest the same thing with rules level and era

Found it/ Thanks.

As for why, because I can! Yes, it's kind of a stupid weapon, but it is OFFICIALLY a weapon.

1 - SSW is ... not being updated.

Heads up: It's recently been picked up by a new group.
They communicate via this discord server:

Here's an experimental release from two days ago:

Good news, certainly. I always liked how SSW allowed custom pilots to be printed out much more easily than MekLab.

Yes, they always had the best user interface.  If only they had the ongoing support...  8)

Also glad to see this, gonna look and see if there's a topic. If not I'll start one in the appropriate area and link here.

Self:  Meltrans are already culture shocked, except their response is to squeal like high school girls at a boy band concert and discharge energy weapons in random directions.
Weirdo: Sounds like the proper reaction to a Macross Cannon to me.

Please do so. 'd be happy if one of the people of the new group would post thread to keep in touch with us.

Excellent news! SSW kicks the hell out of MML in every conceivable way. Glad to see it back!
I have spoken.
