Really, what part of "as soon as it exits" you don't understand? :)Kane Starkiller wrote:Define the time interval of "as soon as it exits"
I know :) Like I said, if there's torpedo fired in an episode, it will invariably initially head forward. Now, I've listed my evidence, now's your turn.Oh you thought that merely listing the name of an episode somehow proves that photon torpedoes are fired forward. Awww that's so cute.
Says me. Weren't you responding to my post? Maybe you thought I run my posts through Darkstars desk or something? :)Kazeite wrote:Say one second? Says who?
Because canon evidence says so. Really, Kane, it is your claim that it can turn immediately after bein' launched. You could at the very least try to back it up with, you know, the evidence. C'mon, show us at least one instance of Starfleet torpedo veering in any direction immediately after the launch? Please? Pretty please? Pretty please with sugar on top?Why can't it be tenth of a second hmmm?
Yes, but now you try to claim that it doesn't really contradict all that "mantaining parallel linear trajectory" stuff.Ever since my first post I stated that torpedo uses it's own guidance system to veer to the camera.
Except, you know, those Star Trek episodes everyone talk about :D Mumble on, Kane :)When asked what "fired forward" means you mumble something about "torpedo going straight for one second" without providing a shred of evidence.
I can see that. You've missed my point so much you don't even know where it was, what it was, and where it went :DHi hi hi. This is so much fun.
Don't you get it? Your torpedo had to increase its glow size from 0 to 2 meters. Physically. The evidence of such grow is right there on screenshots. The only difference in this particular regard is I claim my torpedo has increased its glow size from 0 to 9 meters.
But then, you claim that contrary to observed trends your torpedo turned left and downwards, and then decelerated. I claim no such things, therefore, my theory is simpler.
To put it another way:
My theory states:
1)That torpedo has speed vectors [Vkaz1,Vkaz2,....Vkazn] at time intervals [dt1,dt2,....dtn]
2)That torpedoes glow radius physically grows over time until it reaches diameter of 9m and mercifully stays that way.
Your theory states:
1)That torpedo has speed vectors [Vkane1,Vkane2,....Vkanen] at time intervals [dt1,dt2,.....dtn]
2)That torpedoes glow radius physically grows over time until it reaches diameter of 2m and then stays that way.
(and of course, there's this thing about veering to the left, etc, etc, your "theory" fails to mention :) )
Do you understand it now? (I dare you to say no :) )
Then why does forward part of the hull appear brighter in last two frames?Mr. Oragahn wrote:Kazeite, thanks for the caps. As I can observe them, I see no hull illumination, safe in the first frame.
