The advanced info on right shows that this weapon is doing 34 DPS at medium and short range, and 6 at long range. Is this a display bug? The "average" damage from basic tooltip says 8 DPS.

34 DPS is more than the plasma weapon does. If that's not a display bug, then this weapon does more damage by far than any other weapons at all ranges except long?

It's a bug it's 6/8/8 at long/med/short

Whew. Thanks. :) 

This still happens in 1.0.18 btw.

Confirming: non-missile projectile weapons still have significantly higher displayed DPS in the ship builder than they should per their profiles.

I think it's because it is calculating the Flak damage as raw damage (I tested by reducing the flak activation range to short, and now only Short range is wildly inflated), would be nice to get confirmation however

This still persists in 1.0.36. Just loaded a untied empire game, edited patrol ship, the damage is 5 / 26 / 26. Plasma beams are only 0 / 0 / 19.

Thanks for your reports, I asked a programmer to fix that.

Ok! We found the issue and the fix will be deployed with an upcoming patch.
