Bare Hands With Racial Styles

happy starbound finally added them

I've always wanted to take the Gauntlets....make them slightly weaker and remove their image so it looks like the player himself is just bare fisted punching.

that was easily done so i thought why stop there? why not make each of the fists like this?
so we've got 2 styles craftable by all races you can craft them with your......bare hands anywhere at the cost of 1 pixel for 2...fists.
bare fists using the Gauntlets uppercut finisher
boxing style using the boxing gloves powerpunch finisher

then we've got racial style fists also craftable but only by specific races for......lore or racial reasons?
-Avian Style uses the dashslash finisher so you'll slash and dash..get it because they're using their bird claws that they might not have...but meh.
-Floran Style uses the snaproot finisher as in they're able to grow a vine quickly just to extend the reach of their punch
-Glitch Style uses the thunderpunch finisher as in they can expose wires on their fists which can trasnfer a nasty shock
-Novakid style uses the supernovarush finisher as in they both have nova in their names i guess. its a basic charge punch.

all fists including Racial expect the bare fists have the following damage
"freezeTime" : 0.15,
"fireTime" : 0.3,
"baseDps" : 6.0,
with the bare fists having
"freezeTime" : 0.10,
"fireTime" : 0.3,
"baseDps" : 5.0,

I've also tweaked the settings so you're able to "Aim" your punches towards your mouse....useful when you're trying to punch those orange touch damage fish.


Reason for this mod?
-why must we be stuck with a broken sword when we have two perfectly good fists to work with?
-also after all the time i've played this game i've only ever managed to find 1 supernova gauntlet and only 1 pair of gauntlets so i thought i'd use the special effects on racial classes to give players an easier taste of what its like.

NOTES/thoughts
-I'm aware after the first punch your character stops aiming with that fist...unequip and reequip them...its programmed into the game...most likely the reason we can't normally aim with them
-you can punch a couple of times to defy gravity for some reason?...don't depend on it for big falls because it only works for the first couple of seconds.
-the punches are weak enough but the finisher does a fair bit of damage
-you can craft them right at the start
-you don't have to download the mod
-some of the fists have humorus referances to other games like "POW! Ha ha!" - heavy weapons guy
-why does it cost 1 pixel? it looks weird setting it to 0 pixels because the ui line would still appear just empty
