Hi,
I have just installed a couple new weapons on my Dunelizard and when I go to fire them off in space I just get the "rejected" sounding noise. Is there something I should look for to make sure my weapons will work on my ship? Any help would be great, as I have tried a bunch of things and none of them seem to work.
Thanks,
Yaurra

There are a few bugged weapons out their but i dont think that this is the problem.
do you
A. have a cap in the ship?
B. have a big enough power in your ship that will power the weapon? look at the screen when you go modify your ship. if the engery does not have red numbers you are find with the reactor.
also where did you get these weapons? were they looted or crafted?

A. have a cap in the ship? What's a cap? I am new to JTL (as of yesterday) so I am not really familiar with the terms yet.
B. have a big enough power in your ship that will power the weapon? look at the screen when you go modify your ship. if the engery does not have red numbers you are find with the reactor. None of the numbers are red, so I figured it was all set, is there any other numbers, besides the 3 at the bottom of the "manage" screen, that I should check?
also where did you get these weapons? were they looted or crafted? Well one of the weapons I am trying to put on was looted, and the other is a prototype weapon that came with the ship.

Just something I thought I should add. When I was firing both of my weapons (with the left mouse button), they would both go off at the same time and it would say something to the effect of "weapon 1 selected" and "weapon 2 selected" almost everytime I fired. Is this normal?

okay ya your problem is you dont have a capaciter in your ship i believe. if none of the weapons are fireing.
a capaciter is besically like recharable ammo for your ships. and it is something you need to have in your ship to fire your guns

Wow, I thought I had everything loaded and I just went to check the capacitorand you were right, it wasn't loaded on. I will go try it out now.
Thank you DarkBShadow. I appreciate the help.

Also, when you're in space, hit "g" to bring up your weapons groupings...you'll want all your blasters grouped together in group 1 so they all fire at the same time
