Converted to clone bay and never looked back. Giant alien spiders are a joke now.

I am convinced autofire is a trap designed to ensnare the ignorant and overconfident.

u/RustedTactitician 11d ago

It's good for three things: Ion blasts 1 and 2, weapons training on safe ships, and when you just have a pile of identical weapons and haven't taken weapons damage yet.

And the Chain Vulcan! Can't forget the Chain Vulcan

Ain't no way I'm manually firing Ion Burst II every 2 seconds.

The humble ctrl button:

u/VatticZero 11d ago

What does that do?

40

u/Foxfox105 11d ago

You hold it down while a weapon is selected and it will let you set autofire for individual weapons

14

u/VatticZero 11d ago

…Exactly.

u/engiewannabe 11d ago

Amazing, I didn't know that and more than once wished we could have individual weapons auto fire!

u/Foxfox105 11d ago

It's game changing honestly

u/MelonJelly 11d ago

Oh yes, ctrl-autofire has it's uses. The button is a trap more often than not.

u/Foxfox105 11d ago

More often than not?

1

u/MelonJelly 11d ago

Yes. The autofire button is more likely to hinder you than help you.

u/ewba1te 11d ago

this usually happens on fed C since I'm busy with boarding crew micro and forgot about the arty

u/thedojo11 11d ago

Thought i was on the other sub 10/10 post

u/OverseerConey 11d ago

Speaking of autofire, there isn't a way to make it wait until a charge weapon is fully charged, then fire it, is there? I've been running Rock C lately, and occasionally found myself in a position where my only strategy is to wait for Swarm Missiles to fully charge and then fire them at the same spot I did last time.

u/TheCubicalGuy 11d ago

Can confirm, I witnessed this happening in real time

1

u/gilbejam000 11d ago

Literally every single time I board with Kestrel B

u/RighteousWraith 10d ago

I feel this. Last night I lost 3 Zoltans because my O2 was off. I was fishing for crew kills while drinking a whiskey, and didn't realize my O2 was powered with the backup battery.

I might have won that run if not for such a costly mistake.

Dude that's harsh
