I had an idea for a new weapon in Hedgewars - "Star Bomb". It would behave much like the Melon with a timer, but be a star instead. The star would explode into 8 smaller stars and each travel as far as possible, perfectly straight, in 8 compass directions (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW).

sounds great and it would be good in tight spaces

I like the idea, although I'd probably prefer it if a star was shot for each "spike" of the main star, straight in whichever direction that spike is facing at that time.

Could be triggered manually.

And since it'd probably be a 5-spike star, only 5 stars, not 8 would be shot upon triggering.
Unless we also shoot one for each "negative" spike, then it'd be 10.

Just some random thoughts on it though.
