Vanilla Fighter Turrets - Klaw117 - 09-27-2008
Have any of you ever noticed that some of the vanilla fighter turrets fire at a speed of 700m/s while the gun fires at 600m/s (Salamanca Turret and Mk II Gun)? If you look at the new turrets that Discovery added in (Tizona del Cid, Vengeance Mk IV), you'll notice that they fire at the same speed as the gun they're based on (Tizona del Cid Turret AND Gun fire at 600m/s and the Vengeance Mk IV Turret AND Gun fire at 750m/s). Can we possibly change the vanilla fighter turrets to match the firing speed of the gun they were based on?

We "can"... question is if it's not a feature meant by original designers for some purpose...
generally I think they could have different speed but max. 50m/s difference.. that way you can still hit reasonably well... 100 is too much.

Well, to add my bit to the targeting:
I'd actually appreciate some turrets that are 50-100 mps slower than their guns. The auto-aim system would then aim more ahead of the target as in certain situations my shots (if not aimed otherwise) seem to just miss the exhaust vents of the target fighter. So either this or adjust the ship center in the model (or whichever point is it locking onto).
Anyway, most turrets are those of 700mps speed. Fast guns (tachyon, particle) usually match.
