Reload time to damage on gun ratio?
Extirminator:
Hello there, I have been recently working on determining the connection between gun hp to reload time (Part of a project I am working on) and I have stumbled into quite the weird territory...
Using some recordings and frame counting I have fairly accurately managed to get the reload time for various Harpoon HP values (+-0.06 sec).
However when plotting a graph I get an unexpected result - its either a combination of a linear and and exponentially declining graph(linear to half health, and then exponential), or a quadratic equation for the graph as I show down here.
If there's anyone with knowledge of this, or a developer with access to the code of this, and can share, I will be very glad.
Also note this is only light gun data and not heavy gun, I have no idea if heavy guns follow the same equations.
Queso:
I might get a chance to dig into the code for it on Monday. One note though, your axes are in the wrong places. Gun HP should be the independent variable on the x axis because reload time is the result. Otherwise it looks like HP is dependant on reload time.

Reeeeeeeealy... if this is true then the notion that a gun with 1hp left is as dangerous as a gun with full hp just took one on the noggin

Oh no, it's absolutely certain that damage slows guns down. That's been a feature for a long time. Extirminator is just looking for the exact rate of decrease in firing speed.

Whats more painful than the reload speed decrease is the turning speed decrease.
It seems even more drastic than that, a light gun with even just 1 or 2 bars of hp missing can barely turn at all. Its like perma lochnagar shot over here.
