Give bonus to non-damage effects

[ltmauve]

Right now, we have our push/pull/stop non-damage effects (the others just change how damage gets dealt.) I'd like to see these non-damage effects get a boost with a 100% effect. So a 150dmg laser with 100% stop would get a bonud and wind up with 300 force.

No, that would unbalance things.
Joke coming up: 'What is a bonud?' Haha, I'm so funny sometimes! Oh, wait. That wasn't funny, was it?

I'm pretty sure there are already those complaining the stop effect is already over powered. I myself have yet to test the non damage type effects so I can't really weigh in directly yet.

Apparently stop ignored the thrust amount of the ship. One weapons block and one stop module was apparently already enough to stop even the kost powerful of titans.

With a -BIT- (Not a lot; it needs to be a bit "overpowered" for people to actually use it) of balancing, Stop is fine... But yeah, currently the Push and Pull effects are a bit underpowered. Currently, only larger ships can use them effectively against anything that isn't a core or microdrone.
