| In Brief
| |
| | |
| Fighting in space is a matter of physics. The detailed chart below is based on physics but doesn't show it. But some people want to see all the details, so the math in [[Turret mechanics|Turret Mechanics]] and [[Missile mechanics|Missile Mechanics]] does show it. You can find it there if you want it.
| |
| | |
| *If a target is standing still, you can hit it with anything. (The same is true of you … so keep moving.)
| |
| *Turrets fire a stream of stuff - pellets, pulses, ray beams - in a straight line.
| |
| *Missiles home in on their targets.
| |
| | |
| Signature radius sets the size of the target for the incoming weapons. Missiles explode when the get inside the target's radius. Turret streams hit when they get inside the radius.

| |
| :*They miss a lot.
| |
| :*But they fire fast, reload pretty fast and cost less.
| |
| ::-Projectiles: use no capacitor, you can choose the damage type, cheapest ammo
| |
| ::-Hybrid: use some capacitor, two damage types
| |
| ::-Energy: use a lot of capacitor, two damage types, no reloading
| |
| | |
| Missiles home in on their targets.
| |
| :*They hit more often.
| |
| :*But they fire slowly, reload slowly and cost a lot.
| |
| | |
| For turrets, damage drops with range. Optimal range is the place where you have the best chance to hit - not guaranteed, just best odds. Falloff + Optimal = 50% chance to hit.

| |
| This is not a factor for missiles, but missiles have a maximum range, after which they never hit.
