Talk:Shoot speed

I recommend changing this to Velocity for better clarification and accuracy (Not only does 'shoot speed' sound wrong/improper, but it could easily be inferred as attack rate for missile weapons), as well as consistency with in-game stats. —twiz
 * I'm pretty sure this is the name given to it within the code. — iLiaWneK (block) 16:56, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
 * That's fine, but a label used only "within the code" has almost zero bearing on the players and, I would guess, most users on the wiki. If the Wall of Flesh was named "Meat Tower" in the code, should the wiki then rename it? Anyways, it was just a suggestion. twiz 19:13, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * i agree with twiz, i think it should be velocity as well. most players don't take time to look at the code. 24.116.84.99 18:22, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
 * It's also not obvious what the speed value even represents -- is a larger speed value faster or slower than a smaller speed value? The Enchanted Boomerang has a shoot speed of 10, while the Minishark has a shoot speed of 7.  Logically you would presume a boomerang is slower than a bullet (inferring a larger speed value is slower), yet the Space Gun shares its shoot speed of 10 (inferring a smaller speed value is slower).  --Sinister Stairs 20:01, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
