TODO :
* Widget will be available on github or something...
* Need to explain more on how to interpret the figure.
* Add examples for orbiting objects.
* Explain the intuition of the figure (use the images from the discord discussion thread), before explaining the formula.
 
 


'''Note:''' On this page, the terms "''orbiting speed''" and "''orbiting velocity''" are used interchangeably. They both refer to the target’s movement speed along its orbital path. Also, the term "''stationary''" is used instead of "''static''" to more accurately describe ships that are not moving.

This term shows that hit chance decreases the further the target is beyond optimal range. This relationship can be visualized along a 1D axis.

Different turret types have different property. The following three figures shows the property of each turrets, when targeting against a stationary object of 100 signature radius at 5000m distance.
Different turret types have different property. The following visualizations demonstrate how turret performance is affected by weapon type, weapon size, and target signature radius, using consistent conditions: a stationary target at 5000 meters and 100 signature radius unless otherwise specified.
 
''Note: the profile of turrets do not account for any character skills, ship hull bonuses, modules, or ammunition effects.''
 


For example, autocannons have a very short optimal range and long falloff, thus having a bigger yellow to orange area. Pulse lasers have long optimal and short falloff, and the worst tracking, which results in long but narrow cone of green area. Blasters have the best tracking but worst range, showed by the short and wide cone.

* Medium autocannons extend the falloff range by a decent amount, inheriting the long yellow to orange profile of the small variant, but with greatly decreased tracking.
