I would like to learn eve combat mechanics, but I would like to use relevant tools and there have been many changes recently. Is there a good turret calculator somewhere that I can use, or other tools to generally evaluate how ships might perform?

PLEASE HELP MAKE ME THE BEST EFT WARRIOR EVER! I WILL ACHIEVE EFT VICTORY AT ANY COST!

Seems like EFT comes with a "turret calculator" built in...

I'm an idiot, don't mind me.

Good idea, ty.

Anyone know how to change the scale on the dps graphs in eft? I have a dps chart now that is for blaster boats where the graph extends to 60km! I'd like to cut that down significantly so I can see more detail on the graph.

resize/extend graph window as a normal "Windows" window :)
also if only interested in turret dps you cand remove drones from the ship so they dont appear to do dmg at 50-60 km

Good point re: drone ranges.

Any idea how much range you have on the system scanner and how far from celesials sites are? Figured I would avoid making another thread. When I asked this question a few times in the last few days, I get a lot of responses that relate to the dscanner, which is disappointing. :/

The max range for D-Scan is 13AU and change (I don't have the exact number, but you can figure it out yourself if you look at it in-game and divide that by the number of KM in 1 AU, which is readily available on Wiki).

The system scanner scans the whole system. That will reveal all cosmic anomalies available. If you're looking for the other sites, you need to use probes.

IIRC, all cosmic anomalies and signatures spawn within a 4AU radius of a celestial object.

As stated previously, you can use the on-board scanner to find all anomalies in one shot, but will need probes to find the signatures in a system.

I vaguely recall the system scanner having a range of like 60au but not sure. :(

Also, EVEHQ has a fitting tool with DPS graphing abilities. Most people prefer EFT for some reason(eft is more accurate, easier to use, blah blah, none of this is necessarily true btw)but, I find it the better of the two, and it has a bunch of other stuff that goes along with it. Asset manager, character manager, pos manager ect.

I plan on living forever.......so far, so good.
