firing speed

ChielScape · Posted: Tue Mar 20, 2007 8:06 pm Post subject: firing speed

ROF=1 takes exactly how many seconds?
(or: how many of those points make 1 second?)
and can i enter a value smaller than 1?

15 ticks is 1 second at a game speed of 3 (middle setting) if I recall. ROF=1 will be very, very fast-firing. To be honest, using seconds as a measurement of ROF isn't worth it, just compare to existing weapons and make smaller/bigger than what they are until you're happy.

BTW do ppl really play at other settings than "fastest"?

I play on FAST when building my base and FASTEST when engaging the enemy. Plus, aren't the units for ROF frames? Ex. ROF=1(shot,shot) ROF=2(shot,wait,shot,wait)

Why do you need a 100 round burst in one second? Nobody will ever be able to tell and the sound will just overlap. Remember that TS has quite a small amount of channels so 100 shots in one second will sound silly and block out everything else.

What about:

[bla]
...
ROF=240
Burst=100
...

You'll get your 100 rounds ( I have tested a simular idea, ROF=1, Burst=10) and the sounds #Tongue

If you want to control the burst speed then you use Arm=[number] part of the projectile code that is being used(I forget how much of a difference it is between Arm=1 and Arm=2). I tried to use the Para weapon for the GIs with Burst=250 and no Arm set and he discharged all his burst in around 2 seconds.
