    Considering it, actually. The firepower would be a continuous 25.1 million DPS when docked to the homebase. >:D

    I almost feel wrong calling it a turret and not a supercapital. But then I remember the Titans from EVE have turrets this size and are still WAY bigger then them. Untill that day though. Untill that day.....

    Whenever I can figure out a way to stop it from lagging, due to the connected AMCs. It seems to cause problems even when the computer isn\'t selected, so I\'m going to attempt to use multiple weapons computers, and see if that makes any difference. When I get that figured out, its just a simple matter of filling the rest of the spaces in the barrels.

    Well if it makes it better it was more of trial-and-error.. I usually try to do that kind of stuff without any tools, also glad you like it!

    Altho i helped alot with this turret he has been working on it for over a few months. Some people finish titans in that amount of time but he was very busy. I ended up PM\'ing him asking if i could help and he said sure. You would not belive how much fun it was working on this project and about 1-2 weeks from completion *that was unknown at the time* Thiago joined us ( Who ever thought putting in AMCS can take 23 hours?) He helped alot in the constuction of the AMCs in the barrel at the max we had 3 people working on the turret. Me Thiago And A_Fat. Nearing the ned of the build stage FPS started dropping and for the link of ALL THE AMCS AT ONCE it took 4 mins of starmade not responding but then they where linked.

    Going with a post I made a while back, and I\'m unsure of its accurateness by now.. roughly 150m e/sec, but I really feel like this is way off. Sorry, I haven\'t had the time in a while to go back and add the last blocks I needed to. If I had to make a more random guess... I would say up around 1 billion e/sec maybe. Again sorry, but when I remember, and get the chance I\'ll update it for you.

    Limit number of weapon CPUs (currently 10 in your hotbar, but how will AI handle that?)

    Increase the power usage of weapons for each above 1 per computer (maybe by 0.1? dunno how it is currently done, but I heard it is already done).

    Make dps scaling inverse exponential to encurage a lot of small crashing possibilites or exponential to further increase the core drilling issue?

    Dunno, but I think at least this turret has a weak spot against fightere-swarms with exactly 1 million power regen and cloak/stealth. Behind their output - a half sphere.

    I hate laggy turrets. Don\'t promote them :(

    Except that, good job (wasting your life vs artificial limits >:-}) :)
