So I've been looking around and reading up on Ghost Heat, and can find all sorts of tables and numbers, but I didn't see an answer to what I consider to be the most basic question:

What counts as firing "at the same time" or an alpha strike?

If I have 4 C-LPL and group them 2 and 2 and hit both triggers at the same time, I would assume that counts?

So how long before I fire group 1 do I have to wait before I fire group 2 to avoid the additional heat?

You could also activate chainfire by pressing backspace and push both triggers.
Then it fire the weapons atomatically in (i think) 0.5.

Thanks! I thought I saw something like that in a metamech guide but wanted to confirm!

correct, if you HOLD down the trigger for a fire control group that is set to chain fire then it will space out shots in half second increments.

On a related note, for some weapon types (definitely lasers, might be all energy) if you start tapping a trigger that is set to chain fire then you can actually chain fire faster than the built in .5 sec delay you get if you simply hold down the trigger.
