For objects which have IsGattling=yes set, this is used to determine how many decrements the timer gets per frame, thus determines how quickly the rate of fire decreases.
Bugs/Side-Effects/Unexpected Limitations
If you set a negative value, the timer will accumulate from the unit's creation as long as it is not firing.
- However, even in this scenario, the unit's first firing action will still utilize weapons from the first stage once before switching to the appropriate stage.
If RateDown=0 then it overrides the previous stage values, causing the weapon to instantly go to zero when it stops firing if it can't find a new target. However, this may not always immediately reset the timer after a target is destroyed/switched due to reasons such as immediately designating another unit as the new target.
- This inconsistency can be fixed with Phobos Build 46 via RateDown.Reset.
