uac-test#

uac-test is a simple, no-frills* command-line utility to test DPS for Ultra Autocannons (UACs) in PGI's MechWarrior Online.

*Sorry, I wish it could make you a sandwich, but sudo err, I mean Run as administrator can only do so much.

Application Usage:

uac-test [uactype] [module] [fastfire] [cycles]

Note: all arguments are required!

Valid Arguments:

 uactype: 2 | 5 | 10 | 20
  module: 0 | 1
fastfire: 0 | 1
  cycles: between 1 and 1000000 (upper bound defined in cycle_max)

UAC Type: as described on the tin.

Module: is the cooldown module equipped or not? (Note: UAC2 technically shouldn't have a module.)

Fast Fire: is the Fast Fire skill unlocked or not?

Cycles: number of attempted double-tap cycles.

(Total damage should be at least Cycles * Damage and no greater than 2 * Cycles * Damage.)

Output:

Outputs a .csv based on specified flags:

UAC## Module Fastfire NumCycles.csv

##Additional Notes## This project is only meant to be a fun exercise in code (and marginally useful for proving theorycrafting shenanigans) and is intended to be superseded by a GUI version.
