Beam Weapons are directed energy modulators which are used during the Ship Battle. Additional weapons from Ships and Stations are Torpedos.
Overview: Beams.xls.
Beam Weapon-properties
- Ein Typ 10 Laser kann Ziele angreifen, die 10mal weiter entfernt sind, als es ein Typ 1 Laser könnte. Es wird also die Reichweite erhöht. Am Schaden oder an der Schußfrequenz ändert sich nichts.
- Number on Shoot (number of beams per shoot)
- Beamtime (duration of beam)
- Rechargetime (rechargetime)
- Bonus from System (not implemented yet)
- Piercing (ability to pass through shields as if they don't exists)
- Beam Weapons with this property passing enemy shields as if they don't exist and doing hulldamage. This don't work against multiphasic shields; these can't be penetrated and must be destroyed the normal way.
- Modulating (modulating beams)
- Beam Weapons with this property modulate their beams permanently in new ways, thats why 50% of the impact always goes directly to the opponents hull.
>>note from Darkness: Even multiphasic shields can't reduce this effect.

|
Damage of one beam
|
|
|
|
| 24000
|
formula is: 2 x 1 x 15 x rounded(100 / (15+35)) x 400
|
|
|
|
|
|
Formula:
|
|
|
|
|
|
At last x damage of one beam (400)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before: 100 sec. / time. Time = one beamtime + rechargetime
|
|
|
When beamtime+rechargetime > 50 (would mean, only one shoot is possible in 100 sec.), there is
|
|
|
a tolerance. From 71 upon damage is reduced in steps (here until 12000 is reached. 12000 is
|
|
|
minimum for 1 beam out of each of the 2 beam weapons).
|
|
|
Thanks to Darkness for his explanatory notes
|
|
|
|

|
First (of course): Number of beam weapons x shoots x number of shoot in 100 seconds
