The '''main weapon''' of the ship are the guns mounted in the mobile turrets (stationary for the bow ones).

*[[Interceptors]] have 2 guns each.
The main weapon of the ship are the guns mounted in the mobile turrets (stationary for the bow ones).
*[[Fighters]] have 4 guns each.
* On the [[Interceptors]] 2 guns are installed.
*[[Frigates]] have 4 guns each (except for Long Range Frigates - 6 guns and [[Object NY18]] - 8 guns).
* On the [[Fighters]] 4 guns are installed.
*[[Destroyers]] have 12 guns each (fires a maximum of 8).
* On the [[Frigates]] 4 guns are installed (with the exception of Long-Range Frigates - 6 guns and [[Object NY18]] - 8 guns).
* On the [[Destroyers]] 12 guns are installed  (shoot maximum 8).
Depending on the type of [[damage]], the weapons are:
Depending on the type of [[damage]], the weapons are:
* Kinetic. Do kinetic damage. Especially dangerous for the hull of the ship.
*Kinetic. Deal kinetic damage. Especially dangerous for the hull of the ship.
* Electromagnetic. EM damage is dealt. Especially dangerous for the shield of the ship.
*Electromagnetic. EM damage is dealt. Especially dangerous for the shield of the ship.
* Thermal. Causes thermal damage. They damage equally well the shield and the hull of the ship. Many thermal weapons are lasers - they do not require advance when shooting.
*Thermal. Deal thermal damage. They damage equally well the shield and the hull of the ship. Many thermal weapons are lasers - they do not require lead marker when shooting.
Each gun of the ship shoots independently. Thus, the maximum cumulative damage inflicted by the weapons of a ship is obtained by multiplying the damage of a single gun by the total number of guns of the ship.
Some weapons deal explosive damage, i.e. depending on the size of the target:
*15% on so-called small objects (destroyer parts, some drones);
*66% on interceptors;
*100% on fighters;
*125% on frigates;
*175% on destroyers.
There are also weapons with damage that depends on the size of the target, but is not explosive. For example, the [[Singularity Cannon]]. Such weapons are not affected by the Neurocontroller
"Armadillo" implant (1b) in terms of explosion damage reduction.


If the weapon fires from each gun consistently, then the damage per second and the rate of fire will vary in proportion to the number of firing guns, and the damage per shot of such weapon will not depend on their number.
===Parameters of weapons===
 
Some weapons may have unique parameters.
If the weapon shoots all the guns at the same time, then the damage per second and per shot will depend on the number of guns, and their rate of fire will not affect.
*'''Damage per shot''' - the amount of strength taken from a target with zero resistance to a given weapon's damage type when hit by a projectile from that gun.
|}
*'''Rate of fire''' - the frequency at which the weapon is fired. For laser weapons, it characterizes the frequency of damage dealing. Can't be higher than 600 rounds per minute, for shrapnel weapons - 200 rounds per minute.
*'''Damage per second (DPS)''' - the product of the weapon's damage per shot by its rate of fire per second (rate of fire per minute / 60).
**If a weapon fires each turret in succession, its damage per second and rate of fire will vary in proportion to the number of turrets firing, and its damage per shot will be independent of the number of turrets.
**If a weapon fires all turrets at once, the damage per second and damage per shot will depend on the number of turrets firing, and the rate of fire will not be affected by the number of turrets firing.
*'''Projectile size''' - the larger the size of the projectile, the easier it is to hit targets.
*'''Beam width''' - the width of the damage zone of some laser weapons.
*'''Trigger radius''' (explosive damage weapons only) - the distance from the target at which the weapon's projectile will explode.
*'''Explosion radius''' (explosive damage weapons only) - the radius of the sphere in which the weapon's projectile explodes, dealing damage.
*'''Critical chance''' - the chance that a shot will be critical. It is important to realize that the chance of a shot becoming critical does not depend on whether the previous shot was critical or not.
*'''Critical damage bonus''' - characterizes how much stronger a critical shot is than a normal shot. For example, a 50% bonus means that a critical shot will do 1.5 times more damage. For charged guns, the critical damage of a charged shot is counted from an uncharged shot (critical damage of a charged shot = damage of a charged shot + damage of an uncharged shot * critical damage bonus / 100%).
*'''Projectile speed''' - the distance a projectile travels in one second.
*'''Maneuvering speed''' - the angular velocity of the projectiles of homing weapons.
*'''Optimum firing range''' - the range at which the weapon deals 100% damage (then the damage decreases). It is 75% of the maximum range.
*'''Maximum firing range''' - the maximum range at which the weapon can fire. It is one-third more than the optimal range.
*'''Spread''' - the maximum angle of deviation of the shot path from the axis of aim. When firing weapons with spread, the shot will not hit the aiming point, but some area around it. The probability of a shot hitting a particular point within the spread region is determined by a normal distribution.
*'''Full overheating time''' - is a parameter that limits the firing time.
*'''Cooling time''' - the time from overheating until firing can be resumed.
*'''Penalty for complete overheating''' - if some weapons are completely overheated, they will take noticeably longer to cool down.
*'''Energy consumption''' - most weapons have zero energy consumption. But some use up the energy stored in the ship's capacitor.
*'''Ally ship repairs''' - some engineering frigates' weapons can regenerate the strength of allies, sometimes at the cost of energy.


===Aiming===
===Aiming===
The player performs aiming with a sight marker, which moves around the screen with the mouse. Since any ship has several guns, they all aim at one point, called the “aiming point”. The distance from the ship to the aiming point is determined as follows:
The player performs aiming with a crosshairs marker, which moves around the screen with the mouse. Since any ship has several weapons, they all aim at one point, called the “aiming point”. The distance from the ship to the aiming point is determined as follows:
* If there are no objects under the gun, then the aiming point is at a great distance.
*If there are no objects at crosshairs, then the aiming point is at a great distance.
* If at the sight there is any object of the scene (ship, asteroid, etc.), then the aiming point is placed on the surface of the object.
*If there is any object of the scene (ship, asteroid, etc.) at crosshairs, then the aiming point is placed on the surface of the object.
* If the object of the scene is not at gunpoint, but near, then the aiming point is placed next to this object.
*If the object of the scene is not at crosshairs, but near, then the aiming point is placed next to this object.
 
=== Shooting ===
Shooting is carried out by pressing the appropriate button. When shooting, the shot hits not the aiming point, but in some area around it - there is a scatter. The magnitude of the spread is set as the maximum angle of deflection of the shot from the axis of aiming. The probability of hitting a shot at a specific point within the spread region is determined by the normal distribution.


The fire does not consume the energy stored in the capacitor of the ship (except for some unique guns). The firing time is limited by the parameter ''Overheating'', the time from overheating to the possibility of resuming firing is indicated by the parameter ''Cooling''.
===Shooting===
Shooting is performed by pressing the appropriate button (LMB).<br>
If you shoot at an enemy without locking him in the crosshairs, he will take 10% less damage.<br>
To effectively hit the enemy and deal full damage to him, he must be taken in the crosshairs by pressing a button (R/MMB by default) or automatically when shooting at him and the Auto-lock setting is enabled.<br>
After that, the lead marker of the enemy will change its appearance.<br>
In order to hit the enemy, you must align the crosshairs with the lead marker.

'''Common''' weapons are available for installation on all ships of the appropriate class and role. Brief information about some common weapons you can read here: <spoiler>
'''Common''' weapons are available for installation on all ships of the appropriate class and role. <br>
 
Weapons being '''unique and for premium ships of the same role''' can only be installed on certain ships purchased for {{CR}}, and on all premium ships of the same role of a suitable rank. <br>
==Interceptor weapons==
'''Unique''' weapons can be installed only on the ship for which they were created. <br>
===Pulse Laser===
The Pulse Laser is a short range instant hit thermal weapon. Unlike other lasers, the Pulse Laser is not very accurate, and has significant spread.
 
===Shrapnel Cannon===
The Shrapnel Cannon is a shotgun-like kinetic weapon. If all of the projectiles hit, it does tremendous burst damage, but it suffers from high spread, especially if fired several times in succession.
 
===Rapid Fire Blaster===
The RF Blaster is a short range, fast firing EM weapon.
 
===Plasma Cannon===
The Plasma Cannon is the longest range interceptor weapon, but is still only medium range when compared with weapons as a whole. Its main distinguishing feature is that unlike other weapons, it becomes more accurate the longer the fire button is held down, rather than less.
 
===Kinetic Supercharger===
The Kinetic Supercharger is a gun that fires small kinetic projectiles to medium range that detonate in a small explosion. It can only be equipped by [[ECM]] interceptors.
 
===Phase Suppressor===
The Phase Suppressor is a thermal weapon that reduces the target's hull and shield regeneration.
 
===Scatter Gun===
A short-ranged EM weapon that fires a burst of plasma that homes in on the nearest target aimed at. [[Recon]] use only.
 
 
==Fighter weapons==
===Assault Railgun===
The Assault Railgun is a fast firing, medium range, medium damage kinetic weapon. It is a suitable weapon against most targets, though it doesn't excel in any particular situation.
 
===Gauss Cannon===
The Gauss Cannon is a long range, slow firing kinetic weapon with fast projectile speed. Its long range makes it a good sniping weapon, and its fast projectile speed makes it effective against interceptors, but its low overall damage will leave it struggling to take down heavily tanked ships like frigates.
 
===Singularity Cannon===
The Singularity Cannon is the opposite of the Gauss Cannon. It fires very slow EM projectiles with a short-to-medium range that do high damage, making it effective against frigates and other slow ships, but difficult to use against speedier opponents. Singularity Cannon blasts are rather large and travel through ships, allowing a degree of area effect damage.
 
===Ion Emitter===
The Ion Emitter is an instant-hit laser-like thermal weapon. It lowers the damage resistance of its target while you keep it trained on them. The resistance debuff makes this weapon very deadly against [[frigates]], especially guard frigates.
 
===Gravi-Beamer===
The Gravi-beam is an instant-hit laser-like thermal weapon that can only be used by [[Tackler]]s. It lowers the max speed of its target while you keep it trained on them.
 
===Flux-Phaser===
A long-range EM weapon that launches a single Plasma bubble that can follows the player's crosshair.
 
===Phaser===
A duel-firing EM weapon. Pressing the fire button will launch a fast EM charge with a quick reload. Holding the fire button will launch a more damaging, slower-flying energy sphere that takes longer to reload. Hitting a slow sphere with a fast charge causes a large explosion. [[Command]] use only.
 
 
==Frigate weapons==
===Beam Cannon===
The Beam Cannon is a medium-to-long range instant hit thermal laser. It is easy to use and effective against most opponents, but its damage is not very high.
 
===Coil Mortar===
The Coil Mortar is a medium range gun that fires kinetic explosives. The explosives' projectile speed is low, but they do area effect damage. Note that this means the coil mortar will damage the user if used against a target at point blank range.
 
===Positron Cannon===
The Positron Cannon fires high speed, long range EM projectiles with a low rate of fire. The positron cannon can be charged, making it more accurate and more damaging.
 
===Heavy Blaster===
The Heavy Blaster fire a shotgun-like blast of thermal projectiles. Its fire rate and spread increase dramatically the longer the fire button is held down. This allows it to saturate an arc in front of the frigate, but it lacks accuracy while doing so. If the pilot fires in bursts it can track targets better, but its damage will be low.
 
===Eclipse Launcher===
The Eclipse Launcher fires projectiles of nanodrones that deal EM damage to enemies they hit and restore hull to friendlies. This weapon can only be equipped on [[Engineering|Engineer]]s. Its downside is low damage and quick overheating.
 
===Destructor===
A thermal weapon that damages nearby enemies within 1000m of the target. [[Guard]] use only.
 
===Mass Driver===
A rapid-fire kinetic weapon. Projectile speed increases with sustained fire.

Latest revision as of 10:03, 25 October 2024

The main weapon of the ship are the guns mounted in the mobile turrets (stationary for the bow ones).

Depending on the type of damage, the weapons are:

  • Kinetic. Deal kinetic damage. Especially dangerous for the hull of the ship.
  • Electromagnetic. EM damage is dealt. Especially dangerous for the shield of the ship.
  • Thermal. Deal thermal damage. They damage equally well the shield and the hull of the ship. Many thermal weapons are lasers - they do not require lead marker when shooting.

Some weapons deal explosive damage, i.e. depending on the size of the target:

  • 15% on so-called small objects (destroyer parts, some drones);
  • 66% on interceptors;
  • 100% on fighters;
  • 125% on frigates;
  • 175% on destroyers.

There are also weapons with damage that depends on the size of the target, but is not explosive. For example, the Singularity Cannon. Such weapons are not affected by the Neurocontroller "Armadillo" implant (1b) in terms of explosion damage reduction.

Parameters of weapons

Some weapons may have unique parameters.

  • Damage per shot - the amount of strength taken from a target with zero resistance to a given weapon's damage type when hit by a projectile from that gun.
  • Rate of fire - the frequency at which the weapon is fired. For laser weapons, it characterizes the frequency of damage dealing. Can't be higher than 600 rounds per minute, for shrapnel weapons - 200 rounds per minute.
  • Damage per second (DPS) - the product of the weapon's damage per shot by its rate of fire per second (rate of fire per minute / 60).
    • If a weapon fires each turret in succession, its damage per second and rate of fire will vary in proportion to the number of turrets firing, and its damage per shot will be independent of the number of turrets.
    • If a weapon fires all turrets at once, the damage per second and damage per shot will depend on the number of turrets firing, and the rate of fire will not be affected by the number of turrets firing.
  • Projectile size - the larger the size of the projectile, the easier it is to hit targets.
  • Beam width - the width of the damage zone of some laser weapons.
  • Trigger radius (explosive damage weapons only) - the distance from the target at which the weapon's projectile will explode.
  • Explosion radius (explosive damage weapons only) - the radius of the sphere in which the weapon's projectile explodes, dealing damage.
  • Critical chance - the chance that a shot will be critical. It is important to realize that the chance of a shot becoming critical does not depend on whether the previous shot was critical or not.
  • Critical damage bonus - characterizes how much stronger a critical shot is than a normal shot. For example, a 50% bonus means that a critical shot will do 1.5 times more damage. For charged guns, the critical damage of a charged shot is counted from an uncharged shot (critical damage of a charged shot = damage of a charged shot + damage of an uncharged shot * critical damage bonus / 100%).
  • Projectile speed - the distance a projectile travels in one second.
  • Maneuvering speed - the angular velocity of the projectiles of homing weapons.
  • Optimum firing range - the range at which the weapon deals 100% damage (then the damage decreases). It is 75% of the maximum range.
  • Maximum firing range - the maximum range at which the weapon can fire. It is one-third more than the optimal range.
  • Spread - the maximum angle of deviation of the shot path from the axis of aim. When firing weapons with spread, the shot will not hit the aiming point, but some area around it. The probability of a shot hitting a particular point within the spread region is determined by a normal distribution.
  • Full overheating time - is a parameter that limits the firing time.
  • Cooling time - the time from overheating until firing can be resumed.
  • Penalty for complete overheating - if some weapons are completely overheated, they will take noticeably longer to cool down.
  • Energy consumption - most weapons have zero energy consumption. But some use up the energy stored in the ship's capacitor.
  • Ally ship repairs - some engineering frigates' weapons can regenerate the strength of allies, sometimes at the cost of energy.

Aiming

The player performs aiming with a crosshairs marker, which moves around the screen with the mouse. Since any ship has several weapons, they all aim at one point, called the “aiming point”. The distance from the ship to the aiming point is determined as follows:

  • If there are no objects at crosshairs, then the aiming point is at a great distance.
  • If there is any object of the scene (ship, asteroid, etc.) at crosshairs, then the aiming point is placed on the surface of the object.
  • If the object of the scene is not at crosshairs, but near, then the aiming point is placed next to this object.

Shooting

Shooting is performed by pressing the appropriate button (LMB).
If you shoot at an enemy without locking him in the crosshairs, he will take 10% less damage.
To effectively hit the enemy and deal full damage to him, he must be taken in the crosshairs by pressing a button (R/MMB by default) or automatically when shooting at him and the Auto-lock setting is enabled.
After that, the lead marker of the enemy will change its appearance.
In order to hit the enemy, you must align the crosshairs with the lead marker.

List of weapons

Common weapons are available for installation on all ships of the appropriate class and role.
Weapons being unique and for premium ships of the same role can only be installed on certain ships purchased for , and on all premium ships of the same role of a suitable rank.
Unique weapons can be installed only on the ship for which they were created.
Weapons by 'Ellydium' technologies can be installed on alien ships, and some - on human ships of suitable role.
