Scientific Report – Log 11

*the video feed opens, and you can see Cortana very relieved*
So some days before I thought that the Argus project is over and that I can focus on the next project called ***** Well, I thought wrong.. I suddenly came to the realization that a single weapon won't fit all our pilots so we came to the idea that a faster refire weapon would may be a good addition..

*she looks a bit disappointment*

So one of my colleagues brought the idea that we could add more barrels *she says sarcastic* I then sent him to the material vault to look if we have some weapons with small barrels that we can salvage to use it on the finished weapon. We found some pretty old weapons with the nearly perfectly fitting barrels, so we decided to salvage them. While my worker salvaged every single part of the weapons, I was on our weapons to prepare everything to add the new barrels. So after some calculations, we decide to add five more barrels, with a distance of 3,8cm from each other. So in total, we have 8 Barrels now on the first weapon it was somewhat easy to mount them on the actual weapon. First, we unmounted the barrels and the plate which the barrels were mounted on from the weapon, after that, we drilled five holes into it with 3,8cm to each other. We then fitted the new barrels into the holes and started to wield them on the back side of the plate after that we wielded the front side, so everything is tight and safe.

So after the successful mounting of the barrel, we decided to test the weapon. The first test was well... ehm not so good.. just because we forgot to add the increased turning speed of the barrels, so the weapon shot not faster but it shot more let's say random we couldn't tell out of which barrel which shot came and the energy consumption also increased...

*she looked a bit annoyed as she said that*

Well after we adjusted the rotation speed manually to 4.89 for the best result, we observed that a single shot uses less energy but when you fire the weapon continuously drains a lot more power than our other weapon.. but what should I say higher refire rate uses more energy over time, common sense isn't it?
But in the whole the weapon works as we expected, we achieved a higher refirerate which we wished to do and made a different option to the other weapon. As we have thought about it, we decided to call the first developed weapon with the slower refire rate Entropy Mk I and the faster one Entropy Mk II, only because we think it fits this beautiful weapon much more. For now, this will be my last log for sure.

*as the video feed starts to blur out you can see her smiling*
