TF's accel has not been an issue until more recently, and I beseech whomever has the access/necessary skills to fix the netcode or whatever it is needing fixed.
Nerfing TF accel is treating a symptom, not the problem; The servers should not lag like they do.
PPs should *pulse*
impending exp changes
TF mass ramps that already high 1.15 accel to insane levels. The math isn't difficult (check your physics book).Mastametz wrote:QUOTE (Mastametz @ Dec 15 2010, 09:17 PM) TF's accel has not been an issue until more recently, and I beseech whomever has the access/necessary skills to fix the netcode or whatever it is needing fixed.

1.15 / 0.8 = 1.4375
The effect of accel GAs on that is left as an exercise for the reader.

I voted no to the poll as I found the counter-arguments in the appropriate thread more appealing than the pro-arguments - and because it's pretty ridiculous that there was a poll about tt's anyway when the int/pp issue is a far bigger/more important one.

TF ships (except new ones like corvette) have all only 80% mass compared to their counterparts on other factions.Mastametz wrote:QUOTE (Mastametz @ Dec 16 2010, 03:32 PM) Your post is stupid unless tf mass or accel have been changed recently.
Std AdvFighter has a mass of 36, TF AdvFighter has 28.8: 28.8/36 = 80%
Std Int has a mass of 20, TF Int has 16: 16/20 = 80%
Std HvyScout has a mass of 40, TF HvyScout has 32: 32/40 = 80%
Std Bomber has a mass of 50, TF Bomber has 40: 40/50 = 80%
Frigate has a mass of 2500, TF Flagship 1 has 2000: 2000/2500 = 80%
Everything else is physic...
Thrust to weight ratio of Interceptors:
Acceleration GA * Trust / Mass = Thrust to weight ratio
Code: Select all
TF: 1.15 * 300 / 16 = 21.5625 (143.75%)
Dreg: 1 * 300 / 20 = 15 (100%)
Giga: 0.9 * 300 / 20 = 13.5 (90%)
Belters: 1 * 340 / 34 = 10 (66.67%)The Escapist (Justin Emerson) @ Dec 21 2010, 02:33 PM:
The history of open-source Allegiance is paved with the bodies of dead code branches, forum flame wars, and personal vendettas. But a community remains because people still love the game.
I think Masta's point is that TF accel/mass has been that way for a very long time, and absolutely nobody considered it a problem until R5 came around with its buggy netcode and made lagjumping more of a problem in general. I remember a time when I didn't have to worry about bombers lagjumping out of my bullet stream (granted, that's probably got a lot more to do with the cheap pieceofcrap router I'm stuck on now).
