Hey whenever i set the bullet speed to 50000, the bullets shoot backwards. Why is this? I have to change the number to negative 50000 to make it shoot forward

Edit: changed pos to neg (it was a typo)

I believe you meant to say -50000 at first, and it's not a glitch. If you put negative speed on something, "technically" that's considered backwards, so it shoots backwards.

Also, to have some fun, and spice up the zone, toy with different settings that may work if set to negative numbers. Just don't change ones that state in the description to be set either to 1, 0, or 2 etc etc.

ehrm, it was a typo. What i meant to say is, when i set it to +50k, it shoots backwards, so i gotta set it to -50k to make it shoot normally. And aiming with your thrusters is very thrustrating lol

its part of my zone. Actually, 32k and 50k greatly differ in speeds.

No kidding... but there's not that much diffence in lag. Observe, on a T1 host:

This is 32000 speed.
