You can fly to mars, but then you still have to use bows and arrows as ranged weapons? LAME!
This is a space-themed mod, so it's obvious that it needs more ray guns! The guns would be crafted from a beam core, a battery and some compressed ingots, wafers and similar stuff, would consume charge when fired, and could be recharged either in an energy storage module or by crafting it with a battery (you should get the old battery back then).
I can think of several kinds of guns:
- Blaster: Fires some kind of an energy projectile, like those guns in Star Wars. Enemies can still dodge or even parry it, like a ghast fireball.
- Laser: probably weaker, but also faster. Aka, as soon as you rightclick, the enemy in your crosshair gets damaged. Could either work in short pulses, or create a rather weak, but continuous beam which you can just keep firing at an enemy or sweep hordes of them
- Tesla Gun: fires a quite powerful lightning which has a chance to hit other enemies next to the target, but doesn't work in vacuum
- Freeze Ray: slows enemies, freezes water to ice and lava to obsidian. Could also have a chance to freeze enemies solid, turning them into statues. Taking it even further: you could mine these statues with silk touch, transport them to someplace else, and let them thaw, allowing you to capture and transport mobs
