New description:

 The Weapon class of Orxonox is very limited. The procedure of shooting is
 always the same: You click a button. Then if you have enough munition a
 projectile flies away. It would be nice to have weapons that the player/AI
 can charge up: The longer the shoot button is pressed the more powerful
 the attack get. Or a weapon that launches a rocket if the player clicks
 and explodes only if the user clicks a second time.

 Steps:

 - Understand how the weapon system of orxonox works.

 - Implement you new weapon types in C++

 - Design a simple weapon that uses the new weapon type

 - Change the template of an existing space ship such that it uses your new
 weapons

 - Create a Model and/or a particle effect for the new weapons
