Targeting speed

How does targeting speed work?

Each ship has a scan resolution value, which can be seen by right clicking on the ship and selecting "show info". The higher this number, the better, as it enables you to target others faster. Each ship also has a signature radius which can be viewed under "show info" as well. A low signature radius means that it takes longer for others to target you. Some modules can affect your targeting speed, for example, warp core stabilizers will cause you to take longer to target ships, while sensor boosters will allow you to target ships faster.

Basically

Text equation:

T = (40000/X)/(asinh(Y)^2)

Where:

X = scan resolution of your ship

Y = sig radius of the target

T = the time to lock.
