Hey, I want to talk about one of the most unexplored and vaguest topics in Starmade:
Warheads.
I´ve been reading a bit bout whats already has been discussed on the forums and it hardly gave any answers at all, rather creating more confusion.
All that I can say is, that Warheads and the way they inflict damage is bugged or very, very counterintuitive and confusing in my build.
As it appears they are infact doing damage to shields rather than ignoring them, but also quite noticeable amounts, the damage inflicted however was fluctuating alot. In some tests only one Warhead fired with a torpedo ( I´m using Drakkart´s desingn
) on a 600k shielded target was able to smash it down to about 100k, in others it was just around 50k damage inflicted and sometimes it didn´t do anything at all (the circumstances were allways exactly the same)
What was also very confusing that the damage done increased when I used two warheads but than lowered drastically with three and than increased slightly ( barely noticeable ) again with every further warhead.
After that I read in the forums about Warheads ignoring shields, Warheads doing no damage to shields at all, or that they are doing very little amounts of damage to shields.
So my Question is how do warheads behave in your games and if anyone knows how they are intended to behave right now?
Cheers
