Emitter Randomly Stops Firing

Surrealistik · Post by **Surrealistik** » 30 May 2016, 19:29

Bug Description:

Emitter randomly stopped firing despite having a feed in power of 60k watts.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Weld/wrench emitter in place above wires.
2. Activate emitter as CE.
3. Watch emitter arbitrarily decide to stop firing with no disruption to its power after doing so for several minutes.

This really sucks ass when you're relying on it to cover a ladder or other important chokepoint.

Emitters take a lot of energy to fire. It's possible leaving it on drained a lot of power.

60k power is super weaksauce for sure (I joined late, not my fault), so that might be the reason.

Emitters fire like 4 shots before having a cooldown, then they start firing 4 shots again (unless there was too low power to fire 4 shots then stop)

No, it literally just stopped indefinitely, so either the power was inadequate, or there's a bug.

I've never had Emitters BREAK down on me. It's most likely Power problems.
