Thread: Weapon Refire rate
thats what I have calculated at, but it seems a bit excessive. Currently at work so cant test.
just had a thought, I havnt calculated the recharge of the capacitor while laying down a volley.
thanks, but i think i know what i did wrong...
Weapon 1 251.5 / 457 0.353 17.5
Weapon 2 251.5 / 457 0.353 17.5
Weapons Capacitor
no have to rework this

got it now i think
if we take 1 weapons
Weapon 1 251.5 / 457 (1/0.353) *17.5 approx 49 energy per sec
Weapons Capacitor
914.6
28
33 secs
WARNING : Weapons capacitor can only fire a volley of 83 shots before Energy is depleated
based on this one weapon continues fire will shoot83 shots thats the energy per secdevided by the cap energy, but at the same time the recharge rate of the cap is adding a small amount back in, but not enought, as the recharge rate is less than the energy out.
new energy = energy 914.6 / 49 (out)*33 secs = 615.
number of shots = newenerg (1529 / 49(out) = (31 shot * (1/weaprr) =87 shots in 31 secs
2 weapons = energy out 96
new energy = energy 914.6 /96 (out)*33 secs = 314.
number of shots = newenerg (1228 / 96(out) = (12 shot * (1/weaprr) =35 shots in 12 secs
3weapons = energy out 147
new energy = energy 914.6 /147 (out)*33 secs = 205.
number of shots = newenerg (1119 / 147 (out) = (7 shot * (1/weaprr) =21 shots in 7 secs
4weapons = energy out 196
new energy = energy 914.6 /196 (out)*33 secs = 153.
number of shots = newenerg (1067 / 196(out) = (5 shot * (1/weaprr) =15 shots in 5 secs

well I hope it works, stuck at work so cant put pen and paper to actual testing.
but the loadout program looks like its showing the right numbers ![]()

914.6
28
33 secs
1weapons = energy out 49
new energy = energy 914.6 /49 (out)*33 secs = 314.
number of shots = newenerg (1228 / 49(out) = (12 shot * (1/weaprr) =35 shots in 12 secs
Rate of recharge per second = 28
Rate of depletion per second = 49
differance = 49 -28=21 energy per second
914.6 / 21 = 43 secs - 43 / ((1 / 0.353 refire rate) = 2.8 ) = 120 shots
i hate clever clogs.... but at least he is right , so cant complain.
aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
