Planetary Combat Questions

Post by BBB » Wed Sep 30, 2020 22:24 UTC

Hey!

Needed some clarification on planetary torp damage.

1. When you scan a planet and see it's ratings, does that include the +1 bonus for having a base on the planet, or should you consider an additional level?

2. How does the planetary torpedo salvo get calculated? I thought it was based on the torpedo launcher level (i.e. up to 2% of the level value * 10 damage/torp), however I'm getting values higher than than when I test attack some planets. For example just attacked a planet with 50k torps on it and level 20 launchers and all 50k torps launched. I would have expected only like 3k torps launch and 30k damage if it followed ship rules (or * 1.45 more depending on answer to q1...). So what's the deal here?

Cheers!

There is something I've said it was a bug, but TMD told me it is set on purpose: the percent the planet uses is 10% from the Torpedoes launcher (+1 if a base) instead of 2% as the ships are using...
