Hello guys,
I have a few questions about some modules, i don't know exactly to what they apply and how:
1. The DRONE NAVIGATION COMPUTER that increses drones speed, will this affect fighters also or not? Actually same question applies to OMNIDIRECTIOANL TRACKING LINK and DRONE LINK AUGUMENTATOR, their effects apply also to fighters and sentry drones? Actually thsi is very important if the tracking link applies to fighters or not.
2. On SENTRY DRONE description it is said that falloff is at 42km and optimal is at 48 km and activation proximity at 250km. What this means that the drones can target up to 250km and the optimal hitting range is 48 and falloff beeing 42 that means will hit max at 90km?
3. What is this module doing? Remote ECM Burst: when you have it on your MS you activate on a target (ally) and the ships that target that ally might lose their targets on him depending on your skill and their strenghts???
Thank you all that take the time to read my dilemas :) and specially to those who took the time to answer :)))

1. I don't know
2. The hitting is like this;
If you're within the optimal range all under 48km, then you're 100% sure to hit, if you're in between 48-->100km then you're hit chance will fall to 50% (at 100km), the fall is slow and steady, as a linear function. If you're shotting from 100-142km then you're hit chance is from 50%-0% again as a linear function, dropping slow and steady, the falloff works that time every time you exceed it , you'll lose a 50% change to hit (if on max falloff range).
Read this page: http://www.eve-wiki.net/index.php?title=Accuracy_Falloff
I think that explanes it better then I'm able to.
3. I never really understood ECMs.

I have an ideea how fall off works but why the drones reacts to 250km if the chance to hit after 150km is almost 0 or very small? What means that Activation Proximity 250km, the max targeting range for the drone?

The Activation Proximity is the range, at which the drones will react automaticly to target within. It's defined as:
"The distance at which to react when relevant objects come within range."
Thereby saying that your drones will react, and get ready to attack target within 250km I guess. So the Activation Proximity isn't the targeting range, just the responding range. I guess.

You'll welcome..
Which subsystems? :)

The subsystems you use for tech 3 cruisers :)

Ohh, I was thinking all MS stuff :), what about those subsystems? :)

Can you remove it from your ship once you installed it or they act like rigs and to remove it you need to destroy it?

Well, on the sentry drones: Their optimal gets quite heavily modified if you have the skill drone sharpshooting and omnidirectional tracking links. So, if you really want you can make drone boats into sniper boats. With sentries, of course ;)
(48km +25% from lvl5 drone sharpshooting -> 60km. Then put an omnidirectional tracking link on top of it: 60km +20% -> 72km optimal)
The Remote ECM burst is correctly described as a burst like the ECM burst, with the difference that it is targeted and needs a lock (no problem since you're immune to jams). You can activate it on either friendly or hostile, or, of course, anything else you target.
On the subsystems: you can assemble and disassemble the ships to your liking, nothing will be destroyed.

I think (no source, just my intention) that they react like rigs, in most ways. However I'm not sure about it at all. I'm sorry :), I ain't flying a cruiser :).

^^ :), I were wrong it seems.
EDIT: You're saying that you can use the ECM burst on anything, would you be able to use it on an asteroid to **** of miners? :o, like to screw up their mining. (Just curious about it).

I haven't used it myself, but it is a targeted area of effect weapon, i.e., the center of the effect is the target. As you can shoot anything and everything in eve, even asteroids (you deal 0.0 damage though), it should work. Of course, the asteroid won't lose any target locks :p
Just keep in mind, the ships inside the range of the effect *might* lose their target lock and will be able to immediately retarget. There is no jam cycle associated to this module.

Yes, Remote ECM burst can be fired on anything that you have a lock on. The burst will be around the target. Great for whoring killmails in a fleet fight. :)
