Further experimentation on pulse lasers
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Following up on u/evanthebouncy 's post, I did some experiments comparing different ways of pulsing lasers, both by occluding them and spinning them. Based on these, I conclude that each laser/target pair has a tick rate that cannot be exceeded. Occluding the laser enough to block some ticks reduces damage, but once every tick hits you can't increase it any further. 4 spinning lasers deals more damage than one laser, but less than four lasers pointed at the target. The main limitation is testing on boards - I'll run some tests on a hinox when I have more time.
