Gun energy levels

[vardek]

Hi
When I am fighting aliens on missions i notice my energy levels to fire guns renews sometimes very slowly and then renews very quickly,its not consistent?..what is going on? My ship is a Pelican Civilian Armoured Transport,this makes fighting NPC's very difficult,why does my energy renewal keep changing in battle?.One minute I have guns using all my energy and then seemingly
boundless energy!!!!.
I think this needs sorting ASAP.

I have two theories. 1, you have incompatible technology on your ship, a popup message would appear while launching if this is the case. 2, your shield may be consuming too much power for your ship, and is eating it up as fast as it regens... this happens on a couple ships. Try equipping a slightly weaker shield and see if that makes a difference. Check power requirements for the shield vs your ship's power plant too.

Pelican has energy recharge of 5000/second
Largest transport shield uses 4000/second energy to rebuild shield.
That leaves you only with 1000/second energy for guns.
Now that leaves you with several options. Change to light transport shield, add shield toggle keybind in options(disables shield regen allowing to use 100% for guns) or change to something that has better core recharge. Tbh lighter shield and shield toggling can serve you well

Hi
Thank you,sounds sensible to me,Ill get a lighter shield, not sure how to toggle the shield as I can only find
weapon group toggles in options,no shield toggle?
Thanks again

Go to options-controls-multiplayer & bind a key/keys to Toggle Shield Recharge.
