Rates of fire?
I really like this mod, and sank a lot of hours having fun with it in editor (havent got to play a multiplayer match yet) but one thing that i found weird is the rate of fire of most weapons.
They all fire like fullauto weapons when from what i remember of the movies and additional content (like the clone wars show, which i think created several of the weapons and ships we see in the mod) most weapons seemed to have a rather low rate of fire compared to here.

Im probably not the first to ask that, sorry if you have to answer this question often.

watch the clones utapau scene in episode 3, blasters have full auto its just not used much in the movies for technical reasons

rewatched that scene, on the plans where you see clones clearly they still fire way slower than in the mod, seriously looks like most of their weapons are semi-auto. even more noticeable for the B1 droids throughout the movies.

another thing that reminded me of is the small spider droid with 4 legs (dont know the proper name sorry). fires extremely fast in the mod, every time i remember seeing it on screen it seemed to fire rather slowly

i know it all sounds like a giant nitpick, but a big part of why i love this mods is how cinematic it can be, and in pretty much all battle scenes of the star wars saga you have way less blaster fire going off than what a recreation in the mod would. Idk, feels weird to be than a B1 has a better rate of fire than a droideka.

Also i guess it can also impact the performance on really large battles

Pay attention to the Clones on the Ridge. They fire even faster than the DC-15a in this mod.
As well as the Dwarf Spider Droid as it comes out of the water.

Also, the trooper with the DC-15c a 1 minute and 39 seconds in.
I Don't feel like tracking them down, but almost every scene in episodes 1-3 show the B1s firing extremely fast with their E5s. During Utapau (right after the clone I highlighted,) one fires many shots, almost like a machine gun, then there's the Gungan scene.

However, the Clone Wars 3d show has slower fire rates, I always just saw this as troopers and droids picking their shots more carefully.

cant help but think they should at least be fired in bursts, like MGs /SMGsin base game

I'm just saying that their firerates are close to correct, the Drawf Spider droid should fire in burst, but I think the rest should be kept as is. Also, Clone wars only really invented the SPHA-T on Repulsorlifts. If you look hard enough throughout Episode II-III you'll notice many vehicles in the background that people credit the Clone Wars for creating.

havent watched some clone wars in looong, but im pretty sure they had a couple of unique stuff. the part on umbara had some unique vehicles ans ships for the umbarans since theyre a new faction as far as i know, and theres stuff like that weird sniper droideka (tho i guess it doesnt count as a vehicle)

edit: oh i forgot: which clone wars are we talking about? my comment above assumed the 3d one, but i forgot about the 2003 one
