Introduction

This template provides an alternative way for inserting rows into a table of weapons. By substituting this template in place of the regular table syntax the calculation of a weapon's DPS, DPE, and EPS, number formatting and the provision of default values when none are provided will be done automatically.

Example

Name	Tech	Size	Damage	Range	Recoil	Elec	Vis	Weight	DPS	EPS	DPE	Source/Price	Description	Comments	Image
Arcadian Pulse Gun	0	19	78	210	1	144	339 for 2s	19,000	78	144	0.542	AI Base for 12,000 Credits	Large space blaster.
N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	? for ?s	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A

Usage

In a weapons table insert the template instead of a row:

|- align="center"
| ...
| ...

becomes...

{{weaponRow
| ...
| ...
}}

Then input your own values into the template following the same format as per the instructions, e.g.:

• Capitalise names
• Don't group numbers
• Use punctuation for text

Instructions

Note that values can be omitted completely when using the template syntax and the order of values doesn't matter.
