I get a warning for ghost heat for firing more than 4 of any laser smaller than a large. Either the message is wrong, or the Ghost Heat changes went through despite the patch notes. (I think it's just the message)

It's because you are running heavy mediums which cap out at 4. ER mediums would be 6. It's been this way since civil war tech dropped.

Still, the message is wrong, as it states all lasers, not just the heavies.

That's because once you hit the cap on heavies, you'll get GH even from just adding smaller lasers. I'm pretty sure it sets the GH limit based on the lowest cap of lasers in the group, and then delivers GH based on the number of total lasers in the group in excess of that.
