			Updated the page for 2.24. Slightly condensed the weapon scripts for readability but did not include resistances as I am unsure as to how they work. Removed subjective star system in favor of empirical values. [[User:Nickierv\|Nickierv]] 14:06, 9 June 2009 (PDT)

	::It is damage per second, and heat per second. After all, you have to be able to compare weapons of different firing rates. Maybe remove the cycle time figures totally (although they are quite important for cannons).

	This is really confusing, it needs more clarification (is it damage per second or shot? I can figure this out, but we don't want people thinking that the guns do 1000dmg per shot). More explanation would be very useful. --[[User:Arklansman\|Arklansman]] 21:36, 12 September 2007 (EDT)		This is really confusing, it needs more clarification (is it damage per second or shot?

	::Heat is the amount of heat it costs to fire the weapon. Separating infantry/vehicles/building damage might be useful, but I can't find anything in the scripts that dictates these things. Like I said, I think it will have to be done subjectively based on what it 'feels' like when you play with them. I'll add the placeholders for the new categories anyway, then anyone can easily fiddle around with the actual ratings. -- [[User:Broccoli\|Broccoli]] 07:26, 12 September 2007 (EDT)		::Heat is the amount of heat it costs to fire the weapon.

	:How did you fill in the heat category? Is it hat given to the target or to the user? Also, should we emphasize damage given to armor more? It's not very clear right now with just a broad damage star system. --[[User:L3TUC3\|L3TUC3]] 22:37, 11 September 2007 (EDT)		:How did you fill in the heat category?

	Yup, I was planning on that. One thing: How should comparisons be done? If an MG has good damage for an MG, but does a lot less damage than a Nuke, how many stars should it get? It could be misleading to give them both 5 stars. I was thinking do it relative to its own category only, and leave the damage figures next to it for absolute comparisons. -- [[User:Broccoli\|Broccoli]] 07:19, 8 September 2007 (EDT)		Yup, I was planning on that.
