Gunner Tool: Wrench Vs Spanner

--- Quote from: BlackenedPies on August 18, 2015, 12:26:58 pm ---It takes 11 seconds to rebuild a heavy gun with spanner and 12 with wrench. Again it's only a 1 second difference and leaves you impotent if you don't have an immediate engi near. You can't save the gun when being shot by shatter and can't repair the hull.

These numbers seem a little off.  If the spanner has rebuild 5 and wrench has rebuild 4, then a spanner should rebuild at 125% of the speed, or take 80% of the time.  So a 12 second rebuild for a wrench should be under 10 for a spanner (9.6 by exact calculations).  I know it works that like on the squid hull.  A squid hull takes 20 rebuild power: 4 spanner hits or 5 wrench hits.

BlackenedPies:
It takes 15 spanner hits and 18 wrench. The numbers are a bit off because I timed it with a stopwatch while spam clicking and holding down. The extra 3 hits take more than a second and less than two, maybe the approx 1.6 seconds calculated by Extirminator.

Extirminator put it well. Unless you plan on shooting a ton of lochs straight ahead on a mine pyra you're better off with wrench.

Extirminator:
Components have exceptions in that they won't always have numbers that are directly divisible by both 4 and 5 so you get some odd number with rebuilding. For example a component that requires 12 rebuild power to rebuild, will need 3 hits from a spanner or 3 hits from a pipe wrench - they both have equal rebuild time(if the tool usage cooldown is the same) even though the spanner is supposedly better at rebuilding by 25%.

we have a wiki :)

DJ Tipz N Trix:
The wiki says that each hit takes approx .75 seconds, making the 3 extra hits require 2.5 seconds, which is pretty close to the 2.4 I calculated (because of ceiling rounding). 

BlackenedPies:
I timed again and it takes 10.8 seconds for spanner and 12.4 for mallet: 1.6 second difference.
