Wiki: Missiles

Would it be possible to add missile lifespans to the chart? For the use in "MissileRangeTotal = YourSpeed*MissileLifespan + MissileRange" formula? Or are those values available somewhere already? Have been looking around for a while and still nothing...

These values are core/missile dependent and may change regularly, so I expect they are not all directly placed in the wiki as it would be a difficult job to keep up to date.

Probably the easiest thing to do for this information is to download TEK or ICE from the downloads section. Then use them to look at the core you are interested in (I heartily recommend TEK, ICE is a bit more abstract/involved, and is really more for Core developers)

Exactly the same argument applies to everything else that is already on there

True - but I guess the thinking is that the wiki should be for slightly more generic information, the faction pages list the global perks by faction for example, rather than the stats for each ship. There are relatively simple tools to get deeper information for the truly interested....

I did the math and found all this out while CC_04 was played. Now CC_06 is played, but I checked most of the "main" missiles and found there were no differences. Download ICE to figure out stats for youself if you'd like. Just a notepad file I still have sitten around.

QUOTE ((a/2)*(t^2))+vt=d
Acceleration divided by 2, multiplied by the missle's squared lifespan, plus the missle's initial velocity multiplied with the lifespan, equals the maximum distance.

PS.)Keep in mind that the velocity of the missiles is the "Minimum" (or launch velocity) added to your ship's current velocity. These numbers are all BASE value. Now I'm gonna go make a post about GAs.

Yeah, but at keast everything else that is already there can be read directly from ICE.

FYI When I made the pages I had no intention of keeping them up-to-date, hence the note "this info is based on cc_03"
