And no side effects observed!

 

Only the second time the number of shots reportet didn´t match the mount capacity.

 

40 out of 85 are AA rounds, ROF 120 (Oto SR)

 

first time 30 rounds got fired, second time 10.

Yup, it is saying how many it would fire if it had the ammo, at least it isn't firing more than it has

Judging from the looks of this...were ships running their magazines dry on point defense?

 

And is it now only allowing 30 shots, or rather 15 seconds of ammo?

 

If what I am reading is correct, it fired 30 shots in the first attack, then 30 in the second. Was it actually firing more than that before?

It tried to fire 30 in the second shot, but there were only 10 left because of the mount design....

 

it fires 15 seconds of the ROF Amount.

 

in this case 30 out of 120 shots....

My vote is that the number of pops in point defense should be capped at 15. Pops=ROF/4 rounded down, with 1 being minimum and 15 being max.

See the issue tracker. We got a problem with port mounts engaging in point defense. Will someone else test out if they can get a gun mount with a port arc to engage point defense?

Guys, please avoid cluttering the 'release notes' thread with new reports. Those are for the issue tracker firstly.
