PD Beam
It all started when I built a huge ship with over 100 PDs (including PD towers from mod), and I found my gameplay just extremely horrible (it could not even reach 1 fps at 1/8x speed).
I tried a lot of ways to optimize the gameplay, and finally found out that using beams instead of bullets would work: now I can easily keep 50-60 fps at 1x speed.
Modifications:
– Change pd into a beam launcher. Increases accuracy (since beam has infinite shot speed). Other metrics left intact.
Comaptable mods:
Single and Dual PD Turrets + energy efficient vanilla PD
Twin linked point defense turret
Laser Point Defense
