Hi, I have some weapons for a game which have their fire rate balanced as Rounds Per Minute.
Now, I can convert Rounds Per minute into Use Rate using the formula 1/(RPM/ 60) = Use Rate.
If I take that use rate and divide it by 2, then use that number in the Use Rate and the Use Complete Event Delay, I get something which shoots a bit faster than the math says it should.
So I need to go adjust the values manually until I get something a bit closer to what I want.
This seems like a convoluted way to set a weapon's fire rate... So I created this post to ask if there is a better way. It's entirely possible I missed a fire rate value in one of the modules, or simple am misunderstanding how to use the Use Rate and Use Complete Event Duration fields to set an exact fire rate.
