When creating a new weapon, you can cause the impact to transfer kinetic energy to the ship by setting its mass, causing the ship to move.

My question is with that knowledge, could a tractor beam be made? (If so, would it be as simple as making the projectile's mass 'negative'?)

Additionally, can the tractor beam lightning bolt sprite be used for a weapon's projectile graphic, radiating out from the PoI to the impacted target (ie not a lightning fragment) ?

Thanks,
