(Btw, you probably don't want a rate of fire much faster than .05 or so. The slowest the combat engine will go is 30 frames per second - it'll slow down after that, but still go at 30 frames per "second" internally, with each second taking longer - so a weapon that fires really fast can skip shots if the frame rate drops down. So, anything that fires at >30 shots per second is probably not a good idea.)
