Logic blocks select weapon output.

It would be really cool if connecting an activator block (or logic output) to a weapons block, when triggered, would make that block the output of the weapons group. The reason for this is it would allow rudimentary aiming especially for security systems.

I'm imagining things like a hallway, filled with area activator blocks and flanked by an amc array. The activator blocks select weapons output so the array can aim at the active activator blocks.

Also gatling-gun style outputs for external weapons. Sure.

Could also do things like proxy chess (like wizard's chess) where moving your avatar moves ships on a game board with tractor and repulsor beams. If you try to move into a position someone on the other team is on it attacks both the opposing player's avatar and the game board ship.

So what you mean is make a pressure plate style block that, when active, acts as the target destination for laser fire?

Might be simpler to write that :P

There is an activator block that is active when standing on it but why limit yourself to 2D chess?
