also not so much with torps but most other missiles have parabolic trajectories, and if you watch rockets they tend to orbit their target once before hitting it. both these things reduce the total effective range a bit.
I think that may be just a visual effect.

no, its not. if you select the missile, so its got that little square around it, you can see the square follows the same path as the trail.
I don't mean to repeat myself but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. It could still be a purely visual effect.

missiles are tracked server side like ships are. if the actual missile (that thing you can click and have a box appear around) appears to orbit before hitting, then the missile is orbiting.
That seems an odd choice of implementation. Every missile would be like a little suicidal drone then. I wonder if they use similar code.
Do you have reference for this?

Originally by: Faffywaffy Perhaps not an EFT bug, but could someone explain why I'm getting 3dps more on a crusader by fitting a t2 dmg rig vs. a t2 ROF rig? This is without any other modules/rigs that affect dmg/ROF.
Unless I am mistaken, the ROF rigs also reduce the time to reload, so that should have an impact on the bottom line.
-------
CCP has made noises recently like they are considering doing a lot more with rigs than just making small/medium/large versions. Possibly a total rebalance with possible differences in size. If this is the case EFT will need to account for the differences as they won't be largely cosmetic as they are now.
Eventually, EFT will need to be updated anyway. No real rush as ~99% of it is perfectly accurate.
