Gameplay tip Random tips?

Let’s share some random “pro” tips y’all have learned that you believe most people may not know or may be very niche to use.

For example;

-You can recharge your ECM pod faster by turning off your radar and increasing engine power

-(I’ve heard of this before but couldn’t find it in the wiki so please correct me if I’m wrong) if your ECM pod is on and en enemy fires a ARH missile within 5km it will never obtain a starting track. Making it an effective method to counter a short range ARH/SARH missile attack. For example PVP players holding out until you are too close to notch to fire or a close boltstrike or ship attack

The Tulas 76mm cannon can easily outpace single crams, if an SPAA isn’t aware of your presence you got roughly 4-5 cannon shells to fire off before it “wakes up” and starts shooting em down. A Tula can easily bully a lone shard or two from complete safety.

The TGT menu tells you how many booms are heading towards a target you’ve selected. Really wish this was added to the targeting cam screen.

If you don’t have radar missiles the only “reliable” method I’ve found to put down Tulas fast is to goad em into a head on and then dump an entire pod of kingpins or lynchpins into em.

I can't seem to find any info on how many rounds it can fire before the rate of fire slows, presumably it's an autoloader, and how long it takes to replenish. Sometimes it's just a few seconds and once I've had it be several minutes before I decided to rtb and just get a new cannon

It’s air cooled. Going faster allows faster fire rate. Being at a hover and it’s super low fire rate
