Yes, direct hit to rear armor (% chance to damage Anti-gravity system), and also damaged by explosions and "Electric Shock" weapons.
Certainly a feature request for the engine:
Add ability to items.
Ex:
- Flying
- Anti-Psionic
- etc.
Can be altered during combat, functionality: active/inactive, state of potential: 0% to 100%, etc.
Adapting tactic during combat for the player.
Many possibilities, and yes, surely a lot of work.
