When you are crafting weapons, do your customers usually prefer high stats in:

firing rate

max dmg

min dmg

quatity

I am trying to figure out what sells the best on these before I mass produce them.

I've found they like the following 3:

1) Max damage (max-damage upgrade)

2) Firing rate (quick-shot upgrade)

3) Energy efficiency (speed limiter)

Of the customers who have a hard-on for damage, they are evenly split between max damage and damage over time. Those who like heavy damage buy the ones with the max-damage upgrade, those who prefer more damage over time like quick-shot upgrades.

Then you have the group of people with multi-gun ships, they need the speed limiters- experimented properly the speed and damage will still be pretty damn good and use far less power.

I've found that all 3 sell, but there is less demand for the speed limiters than there is for max dam & quick-shot. I'd just make enough of the limiters just to have a few in stock, but I wouldn't mass produce those.
