I recently Elite'd my HBK-4SP. Has a 260XL-Engine in it and normally runs at 84.2 kph max. After the Speed Tweak efficency (increases top speed by 10%) it should run 92.6 kph but it only does 90.6 kph.

Did I overlook something, is it just a coincidence that 90.6 kph is an almost exact extra 7.5% from 84.2 kph or is it only a bug?

Before the 260XL I had a 245XL in the mech. Might have to do something with it, I dunno.

I've also gotten the speed tweak on my atlas. It was just less than 10%, same for Jenners.


Jenner (XL 300)
138.8 KPH on the engine
149.3 KPH in the game
138.8 x 1.1 = 152.68 (or 152.7)
-----------------------------------------
Hunchback (XL 260)
84.2 KPH on the engine
90.6 KPH in the game
84.2 x 1.1 = 92.62 (or 92.6)


Wanted to include the atlas, but I forgot the speeds and don't have them setup since the reset. I recalculated the Jenner speeds at 1.0755 and came out to 149.2794, which would round up to the in game speed. The same calculation produced the same close results for the Hunchback.

This may have been a tweak like you did with the double heat sinks that you forgot to update the skill to reflect. I was just really disappointed when I wasn't going over 150 KPH on my Jenner when i worked all the way up for it. I guess either you guys can fix the speed calc or change the skill to reflect how much faster it really makes you.

As far as I know the figures given are placeholders and not the actual final values. They're probably just tweaking the values or something. Why they don't change the values in the pilot lab, who knows?
