Hey Marthe, love the Heat sim, helps highlight stupid builds.
Any guesstamite on when you might have the new clan gear loaded up in there?

[P]

Do you happen to have a chain fire mode in this too?

[Marthe Pryde]

updated, now with clan weaponry!

@Prisima : no ghost heat is not triggered by chain fire yet. too tricky for me

Is there any way to test a chain-fired group other than clicking it over and over? Say I wanted to test 2 UAC10s on chain fire continuously going while i fired other weapon groups to see the heat generation?

[Marthe Pryde]

@varik : the chainfire ghost heat is too tricky for me to implement at the moment, given the free time i have.
I seriously super wish i could tho. i'll keep on sketching possible code implementations on my notes whenever i can :[

[SgtKinCaiD]

Thanks for your work !

[ApolloKaras]

I like this tool quite a bit!

One thing I was not quite sure about though, the heat numbers that are being generated is the mech standing still or at full throttle?

[Marthe Pryde]

Update!

• You can now import builds from smurfy
  
• You can now simulate effects of heat and cooldown quirks

[Greenjulius]

I just wanted to say thanks for this utility. It has helped me theorybuild from the office on many occasions! Keep up the great work!

[Balrogos]

Chainfire would be nice, also working duble fire UAC

[TacoTurtle]

awesome tool.

[LordKnightFandragon]

Ghost heat doesnt work in it lol. I have it checked but it doesnt apply. I can chain fire 4x CERPPC with the WHKs 27DHS setup 12-13 times.....in game that is only 7, then 8 after a pause.

OFc, 12-13 is how many times it should be....but..,meh.

Love this tool, it's invaluable.

Is importing Smurfy builds broken for anyone else?

Can't get it to import anymore, it was working a few weeks ago.

[LMP]

I am having the same problem, it will not import from Smurfy.

[Night Thastus]

This heat sim is a remarkable, truly invaluable tool, right alongside Smurfy's mechlab. However, speaking of which, importing has been broken for like a month. It hasn't been updated since January. It's sad, but the project is likely dead, which is a real damn shame given how cool it is. It's got bugs and hiccups (and a ton of missing features), and without an author who'll take care of it, it'll fall farther and farther behind given changes to the game and eventually be useless.

[bad arcade kitty]

very nice stuff
would be nice to add a proper constant mg fire though, to test the whole damage of a build
it's a minor issue though

[Marthe Pryde]

- Smuryf import fixed
- Weapon data updated

[LMP]

This thing is awesome I've played with it for hours. I've noticed that sometimes when I fire a weapon it resets immediately instead of having a cool down or reload period. Also, is there a way to chain fire weapons groups?

[axerion]

Great Work there! I´m just going crazy on the weapon testing right now

[Marthe Pryde]

New version is up here : http://keikun17.github.io/mwo-viewer


The difference of this one from http://keikun17.gith...heat_simulator/[1] is that firing ghost linked weapons within the .5s second window may now trigger ghost heat
