ECM

[ExChairman (OP)]

Hmmm, after sending my salvager to a wreck that my fighters created, I found 1 ECM(3)...
But when my fighters fired on that ship, there was no mentioning of an active ECM
Ok, i was pointblank range... My fighters had no ECCM....
I presume that the ECM gives the same minus regardless of range?

ECM reduces range against missiles and reduces chance to hit against beams. If your fighters were missile-armed and at close range they wouldn't have been affected by ECM.

What is the formula for ECM?

(Forgive me necromancy)

[TheDeadlyShoe]

The ECM value is the % of reduction.  ECCM value reduces ECM value.

The ECM value is the % of reduction.  ECCM value reduces ECM value.

Easy 

But ECM1 value is 10 (-10% to fire control range), ECCM1 is ?.

So, Fire Control with ECCM3 vs ship with ECM3 (value 30) have -0% range (i think), or -27% (30-3)?

One level of ECCM negates one level of ECM.  Your example is a net zero.
