[Turning Trim + Copper Plating Interaction]

Hi, I'm currently on PVP2 in KPR with a pirate blockaid.

I really like this trinc and the guy who made it was nice enough to do it just for work hours!
Since that post i've aquired an excellent optimised rudder since I started up a silver mine and used silver coins to pay for it!

 

Thanks for the generous offer though!

optimized rudder????? i am without words....

It would be great if you could find some words then.

The turning trim was a drop and I have no optimised rudders to work with.

 

For those who like words,

Max level turning trim provides 2.5% turning and -2.5% speed.

Max level optimised rudder provides 7.5% turning and -15% rudder half turn time ( no down side ).

 

So there is no reason to use turning trim over optimised rudder.

Oh wow you're right, when I take off all the guns I get +0.05, when I put them back on it's -0.50.

I had no idea they influenced speed to that much of an extent (or even at all ).

 

Thanks for the info!

Hi,

 

I recently applied copper plating and turning trim to my ship.

I expected the copper plating to negate the turning trims speed decrease but instead it seems to have made it worse.

 

The raw stats are as follows:

 

Copper Plate ( +2.5% )

Turning Trim ( -2.125% )

Base Speed: 12.39

Expected Speed Bonus: +0.05
Seen Speed Bonus: -0.50

 

I've attached a picture of the stats tooltip in game.

Is this a bug or is there something I'm not understanding?
