If we are going to take internal damage at 100% heat then why not lower the threshold of auto shutdown? Make auto shutdown at 95% heat. You would think engineers in 3050 would have figured out this one out by now. What’s the point of having auto shutdown if by the time it kicks in its already too late? Please fix.

And while we are at it, if you heat up to 80% and stay there for an extended amount of time, or if you shut down a lot and override, you should start losing heatsinks.

The reason was poptarts shooting 4 PPC's and shutting down in the air. Drop, cool down, repeat.
After testing this I found it's not a big deal. Damage from overheating is WAY less than the damage you get if you override.
