I'm actually finding very different results from different sources some said 10MV/cm some say 1MV/mm. Actually 10MV/cm is the same as 1MV/mm. what pfft |

Can I have the link to the ones which says 10MV/cm? If the source was correct, I guess qswitched mistook 10 MV/cm for 10 MV/m or the in-game unit from MV/m to MV/cm and add the 10. into the game instead of 1000. Also: Will the formula used to calculate variable properties of materials being added into the game at some point? |

Actually 10MV/cm is the same as 1MV/mm. what pfft Do you disagree? I don't think I could fail such basic arithmetics, so please do enlighten me if there is some magic specific to dielectric strength. |

I believe that they wrote it wrong ('10MV/cm is the same as 1MV/mm' the latter should be cm, not mm), but I didn't disagree with you about the basic math. |

I made a flak railgun, first payload shooter since 1.1 for me    I have tried to make 1.1 flak cannons before but I was unable to get faster then ~1.3km/s. |

I haven't messed with payloads in a while beyond a game crashing 10mm sabot I made the other night.
Does flak require a control unit? I recall some confusion about this in a mother thread. Has anyone had any luck with gyrogets, preferably micro-sized?
Also, this being an 84 page design thread, what is the "best" sub-1GW 1Mm laser out there? Is the standardization thread still up to date?
*edit*
Sorry for the questions and lack of contribution, I've not been that active for a while. I've been waiting on this most recent update.

I am mostly sure flak needs no RC

I have a 800 km near ultraviolet laser using 50 MW and only stock-material, and by using the modded Ce:FF, I home-built my very own extra 1 Mm extreme ultraviolet DEATH LASER. |

Flak doesn't really need a RC, though for some reason on some payloads, they won't fuse themselves correctly, like if you want the shot to burst before contact with the target.
