Scott,

Any chance we can get the bug in the craft weapons configuration
fixed?  For the craft-mounted Laser Canon, Xcomutil changes the values
for Damage and Accuracy to whatever is listed as the Damage.  It
ignores the value you give it for Accuracy and just uses the Damage
value for both of those figures.  It does *not* do this for the Guass
Cannon for TFTD, just for the UFO Laser Cannon.  All the others seem
to work properly except this one.  It'd be great to have this fixed so
we can tweak this weapon to be more useful.  I just tested this with
version 9.4 and it still follows this behavior.

Thanks.

Warren
