Rail reload time

Post by fernandinho1337 »

Hi Adminless,

I am wondering if you could tell me what the exact time is that the railgun needs to reload after a shot has been fired. What is this number? Does this also happen to be the plain vanilla number or has it been changed in the course of your balance optimizations?

Asking out of curiosity and looking to understand the mechanic a bit better and learn something from it. If you could share an answer here I would greatly appreciate it. Have a great day!

Best Regards,

if I don't recall wrong the rail reload time is just the usual Quake III Arena default one. the cool down time after a rail shot to switch into another weapon it's shortened to allow for some more vicious action.
