Hey does anyone know what impulse is? I keep seeing it in Smurfy's and MWO wiki but can't figure it out.

Is it how much the cockpit shakes after a shot?

Ok, basically, it's:

Damage done X Impulse = Cockpit shake.

It's used with calculating an earthquake simulation.

The impulse is a common propulsion system used on starships to achieve high sublight speeds.

Impulse is a content delivery system similar to steam (but much worse) owned by Gamestop.

I think he means the Australian based company that has home security solutions. Apparently they also do Solar.
