Title: Would smoke grenades be a good idea for Cogmind?

It may enrich the tactical experience of the game. Just an idea.

Ah, the perennial question (okay it's not all that common, but it does come up every couple years or so). This was discussed here in 2015 (https://www.gridsagegames.com/forums/index.php?topic=154.msg1154#msg1154) among related topics, and it's still the same philosophy, so nope, no smoke (or any such effect).

We do have some similar effects through parts, however, like cloaking for example, or the new upcoming ID Mask (https://www.gridsagegames.com/blog/2023/11/special-events-give-back-and-perfect-stealth/).
