Weapons

The weapons that this page is describing are the weapons that are possible additions to the Starships. In particular, each ship has slots for characters and weapons. Typically, the weapons slots are filled with either a Green-Phaser, a Red-Torpedo, or a White-Shield addition. ***BEWARE*** Weapons can only be armed/added ONCE, to change weapons you must delete/sell and use a new/another one.

## Trivia

* ***REPEAT** Weapons can only be used once.*
	+ Characters return to the main inventory and can be reused; whereas weapons disappear forever once sold.
	+ The order of the weapons onscreen is automatic, there is no way to force the ordering. Last i checked it was alphabetical by government...
* Be cautious with the General-Laser weapon.
	+ Firstly, because usually you will have more ships/weapons-slots than actual weapons available.
	+ Secondly, the weapons that are specific to your ship (federation/klingon/...) are preferable.
	+ It might be better to wait for more common specific-weapons, rather than to use a less-common general-weapon.

## The Next Generation Starships

### Trivia

* these items were being renamed and moved during 2017 and 2018...
	+ it is possible that you might have weapons labelled (or even PROVISIONED) the 'old' way if they were added to your ships prior to the changeovers...
		- new borg shield added around mid-july 2017... old borg shield became current klingon shield...
		- new romulan shield transfer occurred 01-april-2018... old federation shield became current romulan shield due to transfer... currently, there is NO federation shield...
	+ to *fix* your ship, just sell/delete the old/wrong weapon and re-provision with a new/correct weapon...
	+ i have not checked to see if the old-weapons maintained their actual values - but it might be better to leave them instead of replacing them...
* some of the newer items (ferengi/vulcan) used to *disappear* rather than become part of your inventory...
	+ if you lose (or lost) any items from your inventory, then an in-game message/request should fix the problem...
	+ presumably, whenever there is a significant change in the weapons-system, there might be issues that arise...
