My Locust 3M has a xl190 in it, and i have it master and so my basics are (x2).

I've noticed that (with throttle decay off), my acceleration is held back by the rate at which the manual throttle increases.

Press ZERO on my numpad sets my speed instantly and I accelerate.. I'd say about 10-20% faster.

Not sure if this affects commando's or spiders... but yes. The locust for sure.


That is all.


P.S., if you have Throttle Decay enabled, this is a non-issue for you as pressing down W sets your throttle to 100% anyways.

This is normal and affects all mechs at 100+ km/h.
Use throttle decay or set up some keys for full throttle and stop :D

Shift = reverse throttle, Z = full stop, X = 70% throttle, C = 100% throttle. You're welcome.

That's why I set "2" to 100% throttle.
