RT is an analogue trigger, so "held" was one point on a curve. Walking it 0.00 -> 1.00 (throttle_curve.py) gives a straight ramp: 438, 626, 879, 1094, 1342 units/s. Dividing by the ~1.2 time-base factor, the endpoints land on the definition's own numbers (365 vs CruisingVelocity 350; 1118 vs MaximumVelocity 1200) and the midpoint follows, so target speed = CruisingVelocity + RT * (MaximumVelocity - CruisingVelocity) which refines the earlier "selects one of three targets" reading: those three are the curve's endpoints. It also refutes the standing afterburner hypothesis that full RT is the burner: the curve is smooth through full deflection with no step, and the shield does not move. The LT half is not measured yet — the entity scan needs the craft moving when it runs, so a mission left idling drops out of it. Bind early.

"""Is the throttle ANALOGUE, and is full deflection the afterburner?
|
|
|
|
speed_law.py measured a settled speed of ~1 530 under full `RT` against a
|
|
`MaximumVelocity` of 1 200 — attributed to the emulated time base because the same
|
|
~1.2x appears in the turn rates. But `RT` is an analogue trigger, so there is a
|
|
second reading worth excluding: that partial deflection reaches MaximumVelocity and
|
|
FULL deflection is the afterburner (which would also explain why no button toggles
|
|
it). This walks the trigger 0.00 -> 1.00 and reports the settled speed at each step.
