Evasion allows ship to dodge the missiles thanks to the engines.

  • 100% or higher (how? 100% and you dodge everything why need more and how?)
  • remaining evasion (remaining? of what?)
  • evasion charges (charges? what is that?)
  • maximum evasion charges (maximum charges?)

  1. I can’t answer this because I don’t understand it myself keka
  2. Remaining evasion is just your current evasion%. It’s called your “remaining” because your ship will also have a “Max Evasion%” which varies depending on how many ENG rooms you have on board and whether they are powered. Your Max Evasion is what you start with and then your “remaining evasion” is the amount that remains after enemy missiles start hitting your ship/chipping away at your EVA.

im pretty sure you can hit above 100%

maybe I'm misremembering but I'm anecdotally also pretty sure I've seen missiles hit above 100 too

# sick lily no?

You can because tracking acts first then it calculates hit chance, so at 106% Eva you have a 0.5% chance to be hit by a 6.5% tracking missile

If u hit above 106.5 at that scenario then it will guarantee miss

i wonder the tracking work how, if a 6.5% tracking missile so...

  1. Eva is 100% - 6.5%
  2. Eva is 100% x (1-6.5%)
    which one?

Oh, tracking is always % of current evasion, so e.g. at 50% Eva
It's 50% - 3.25%

Those string are not about all the tracking stuff so we are no going deeper on this

Now that I know what "remaing evasion" and "maximum evasion" mean (thank you all), I still doesn't know, what "evasion charge" refers to?
@sick lily is "charges" a word that has a real meaning or can it be removed from this string?

this was when evasion system used "charges" to determine how many times the ship can evade a hit
