Hello!
This game is amazing!
I need your help about 2 questions.
I learned how to replace weapons and engines. I read the manual, the FAQ, the forum (new player advices, tactic and combat basics... etc...), and now I was able to replace some cannons and the engines.
But I saw that the standar chemical lasers cannot be replaced. I orbit the planet, I right-click on the green icon of a standard chemical lasers but nothing happen: I don't see any icon on the right, neither green nor red...
I tried to disable the auto-firing.... nothing.
So, my first question is:
1) Why? Could you help me to tell how to replace them?
Finally, in my favourite ship, I have lots of standard chemical lasers and just 3 or 4 particle cannons.
But, I replaced just 1 cannon, because I read that the EMP cannon is useful when the shields of the enemy are low. On the contrary I mainly need the cannons in order to damage the shields, because I use the lasers to fire the enemy missles... So I replaced just 1 pcannon with 1 EMP cannon.
But, even if not upgrade/replace with more powerful lasers, I need to exchange 2 or 3 lasers icons with cannon icons.
2) Is this possible?
Thanks!

The Uggies can't replace the Chemical Lasers.
ICC can for Pulse Beams.
Kluth Can't.
EMP is nice, but you can't swap out Laser mounts for Cannon mounts anymore.

And ICC swapping of the Chem Lasers with Pulse (lower dmg but faster recharge) is for point defense since they are underpowered for attacking.... it can be done but takes longer to achieve the desired results vs. standard Chem.
Glad to hear you like it so far.
