Make Cruisers and larger immune to snub CDs

I like this

For Cruisers:
Give them higher thrust speed and a 360 CD to be able to actually chase gunboats for longer (while still being slower), and to be able to more easily outrun battlecruisers - otherwise, change nothing except removing solaris turrets to make Mep happy.

I do not like this considering BC guns can barely hit good cruiser pilots/ships as it is. And that's with blindfire. The best way I've seen is raw firing dual mortars which is overly specialized in my eyes.

It's a case by case. Some cruisers are larger and can be hit far easier. Some cruisers such as the triumph and archer are just broken.

Furthermore it's rather hard to fire bc secondaries without a crosshair considering their range is so short to begin with. And group firing secondaries isn't viable if you your self don't want to stop dodging as well as group firing them with nothing selected is hella inaccurate when you have to shoot such a small target with a non-converging set of guns.

If I had more buttons on my mouse I'd bind m6 to see if I can automatically group fire and not have it cancelled by my keyboard presses.


Ah more edits. But this is why I suggest to upscale cruiser size, health and dps accordingly to make it less frustrating for both of them as the BC will die faster more comfortably and the cruiser won't be as scared to stay close as if would be worth the risk.
