Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 5239	Posted - 2015.03.07 02:10:00 - [1] - Quote I always assumed it was 100 but from what I'm seeing number wise....I don't think that's the case. Anyone, either Dev or player, happen to know what the actual capacity of a turret is? I know it can fire 4 times, with the 4th shot overheating the turret.

CCP Rattati C C P C C P Alliance 18150	Posted - 2015.03.07 03:00:00 - [2] - Quote I think it is 100. But how heat works, and I had to have a programmer look at this, is actually that every shot fired, while there is any heat built up on the turret, adds twice the heat cost per shot. This was killing me because I could not figure out why rails were overheating on shot 4. the correct calculation is shown in the turrets tab in the HAV bring back google doc.

Should I take this to mean rails aren't supposed to overheat on shot 4? Listen to my muscle memory Contemplate what I've been clinging to Forty-six and two ahead of me

I was killing myself trying to figure it out because the numbers just were not working out. The fact that the programming....doesn't really make sense, would explain a lot of this. I'll harvest your formula, it'll be a huge help. Thanks again! "That little s**t Pokey..." --CCP Rattati, Biomassed Episode 032 Dust514 // Podcast www.biomassed.net
Harpyja Legio DXIV 2336	Posted - 2015.03.07 05:35:00 - [6] - Quote On a somewhat related note, what is the cooldown speed of the large blaster and railgun? I want to do a graphical comparison of the turrets' damage over time but I can't do it without the cooldown rates... "By His light, and His will"- The Scriptures, 12:32

With my highly scientific "One Mississippi Method", an overheated railgun takes about 10 seconds to completely cool down. However it seems to also be non-linear which....I don't want to even think about. So for the calcs I'm working on, I'm going to say its 10 Heat/s + some salt.

Would you know the non-overheated cooldown rate? Since that's what I'll be using in my calculations to represent the damage over time curves. "By His light, and His will"- The Scriptures, 12:32

Whenever you can I got my raw damage graph all set up and it looks a bit interesting. Been playing around with different cooldown rates and the large blaster doesn't seem like it fits in. Or maybe the missile launcher is actually overperforming by just a little. "By His light, and His will"- The Scriptures, 12:32

Thank god for that 'issue' then... Rails are already strong as hell... 7 shots would mean me speccing fully into large rails and never using anything else.
