Proposal: NieR Automata lasers&EMP should count as light speed

[TheAngryOrange]

The lasers in Nier Automata should count as light speed

They've been calculated as light speed. A laser fired from a satellite in orbit around the moon reached earth in one second. In order for it to even start showing slower than light speed, it would need to be 84 million meters away from the moon since the moon is 384 million meters from earth. For reference, the Earth is 12 million meters in diameter so you'd need 7 Earths of distance.

This is a related character describing its thought processing time in nanoseconds. That would put its thinking speed in the FTL to Relativistic+ range (and that's just thinking and not reaction).

Since we talked about this before, SoL seems fine.

If you want to say it’s around that level via calcs and scaling, okay.

If you wanna say it’s around that level via the standards of lasers we have, no

This looks like it’s fine, doesn’t seem like you can calc anything off of it tho

I guess the change seems fine especially with the supporting calculations.
