* Added a better model for the small ion cannon, inspired by the planetary defense ion cannon's muzzle in Empire Strikes Back and made with love and frustration in Sketchup, because I don't know how to use anything else.

Update: 8 Aug, 2018 @ 5:05pm

* Fixed a crash bug with the large grid version of the cannon.
* Fixed a problem with two versions of the script being in the mod and running at the same time

Emergency crash bug fix...

Update: 8 Aug, 2018 @ 12:51am

* Ion cannons are now true energy weapons, no ammo required.
* Ion cannons build up a charge over time.
* Charge rate for small ion cannon is 1 round every 6.7 seconds.
* Maximum charge for small ion cannon is 40 rounds;
* Charge rate for large ion cannon is 1 round every 1.7 minutes.
* Maximum charge for large ion cannon is 5 rounds;
* Fire rates have been adjusted, both now fire more slowly. (A new sequencer block is in the works to easily allow multiple cannons to be chained together to allow for a higher rate of fire. Until then you can use an existing sequencer script).

* Blocks that are currently being affected by an ion blast now have an electricity effect around them and surrounding blocks.

* YouTube video showing this effect.
