Reverse

<< < (2/2)

HamsterIV:
Backwards movement is slower than forwards movement, but I think pilot items can help. I have moonshined in full reverse and I was able to make some distance between me and a charging ship of the same type. But this is just subjective observation, the other ship may have slowed down because I broke his engines, or the pilot decided I he had better double team my ally.

awkm:
Pilot items always work in reverse.

Its slower going in reverse.

Yupp.


--- Quote ---If a system has been chemical sprayed, does it still take fire damage? Or does it just resist catching on fire?
--- End quote ---

As far as I understand it, It is immune to getting more fire stacks, but still takes fire damage.

--- Quote ---On a gun, is it better to use grease rounds for more ammo/less damage, or charged rounds for less ammo/more damage on things like the Whirlwind or Dragon Tongue?
--- End quote ---

It all depends on the gun. No one ammo is best for everything. In regard to the Whrilwind, heavy will bring the spray of bullets closer, making it more accurate. Greased will give you more ammo and let you spray a lot of bullets very fast. Its more inaccurate though. Preference there. On the Dragon Tongue, neither of those really do too much for it. Burst will increase its aoe for some fun times, and lesmok increases the range, making it usable in more situations. Again, preferences.

HamsterIV:
I am not entirely sure but I think greased increases the flame thrower's particles per second, causing more fire stacks over the same period of burn. I always take lesmok for flame since the extra reach is usually more important.
