Beam stats are based on multiple values found in the weapons table file and are calculated as follows:
- Range: [+Range value]
- Recharge Time: [$Fire Wait value]
- Beam Lifetime: [+Life value]
- Type: [+Type value], where
- 0 = Direct; 1 = Slashing; 2 = Targeting; 3 = Anti fighter; 4 = Fixed
- Shots: [+Shots value]
- Damage per second: [$Damage value] x 5.5
- Damage per second (sustained): Damage per pulse / Recharge Time
- Damage per pulse: Damage per second x Beam lifetime
