## About The Pull Request
Resprites:
Tesla Cannon
Tesla Cannon crafting kit
### New SFX / VFX
The tesla cannon now uses a new type of beam effect that randomly picks
sprite variants for each segment instead of a tracer.
This makes the arc look more dynamic and less distorted.
Autofire guns can now choose to use a looping sound datum when firing.
#### Balance changes
The tesla cannon must now have its stock unfolded before firing, this
takes 1.5 seconds and makes the gun bulky.
It is still normal sized when folded, and folding it is instant.
### Bug fixes
Fixed a bug where looping_sound.stop() would fail to stop sounds.
The tesla cannon is an incredibly powerfu
## Why It's Good For The Game
### My reasons for respriting
The old sprite was not bad, by all means but I had a few gripes with it.
* The old sprite does not incorporate the flux anomaly yellow colour.
* The old sprite looks a bit much like a real, professionally produced
sci-fi weapon,
* The old sprite looks pretty small for such a ultra high dps full auto
weapon.
* The old inhand is quite indistinct for something that can game end you
in like one second.
### My design
I think that anomaly items should be very mad science coded and, since
anomaly science is by definition a poorly studied field, they should
look more like prototypes created by a scientist rather than something
professionally made in a factory.

Uses junctions for smoothing, rather then base dirs Also adds a

## About The Pull Request
This was an issue on wallening and I figured I should fix it at the root
Look ma I'm upstreaming
