Talk:Laser Rifle

Note:The difference for auto shot occurs according to how many TUs the soldier has, and is probably due to the INTeger function. For instance a soldier with 59 TU will use 20 TU for an auto shot, but a soldier with 60 TU will also use 20 TU and will thus be able to shoot 3 times. 64 TU will give 3 shots at 21 TU and 1 TU leftover.

Just rolling back this update because this is something true for any weapon where the percentage and TU values result in a fraction that gets clipped off thanks to the use of integers - it's not just exclusive to the laser rifle. The heavy plasma is another notable example where TU values can add an extra round at some TU levels. Due to the limited and specific requirements needed to get these extra shots, they are rare (and rather desirable) anomalies rather than the norm. -NKF 02:01, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

It's not an anomaly... the 2 autoshots is the anomaly. You USUALLY get 3 shots.

Haven't tested the Heavy Plasma or whatever yet, but zombie's article is wrong *most of the time* !!!

Crap. This looks correct under edits but looks wrong when reading it... er... anyhow, it's just proof, in case you STILL doubt my word. Talk page, not main article, anyhow. Jasonred 05:59, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

Thanks Bomb bloke. Jasonred 06:19, 15 April 2009 (EDT)
