{"name":"mdy.term.unit_mega","tips":"### '''With'''\nWIth 260% build speed, a group of Megas can get any block built almost instantaneously. With rapid-fire healing lasers, it can easily repair any damage and stop very dangerous units from breaching your defense. When not needed, they can be set to mine, providing an ample supply of titanium. Together, these make the Mega an ideal support unit, especially as they are relatively cheap (compared to the Quad) and can survive some damage, unlike the Poly. You will still have to watch out for any piercing and splash projectiles from enemies like the Vela and Corvus, which can erase groups of them with just one attack. This unit is absolutely necessary for the mid and late-game if you wish to survive for more than a few waves.\n\nThe Mega begins a transition in the support air branch from mining and base support to directly supporting real combat. Its payload capacity can airdrop what would otherwise be slow and predictable ground units to your enemy's vulnerable positions. Its health and armor are quite low, so it has to stay clear of even modest air defense, but the ability to take ground units like the Fortress and Spiroct with it gives it an option against anti-air that the Zenith lacks. Since payload loading and unloading can be done by command mode, it is also possible to quickly pull back damaged attackers to a Repair Point cluster.\n\nOn the non-combat side, picking up containers can greatly increase the Mega's item carrying capacity over taking items directly with it (as you might do with Polys or Flares), as containers can carry more than one item type and have five times the Mega's capacity for any single item type. Megas can also conveniently build a new container in place of the one they just picked up, letting new items get stored while the current payload is in transit. Megas can also carry Liquid Containers, which are currently the only way on Serpulo to transport liquids without conduits, although this is less useful since Liquid Containers can only carry one type of liquid at a time, and most liquids on Serpulo can be produced on-site from power and solid resources, which are much easier to transport than liquids. \n\n### '''Against'''\nAlthough the lower-tier support units are too weak to do anything, the Mega's healing power can be turned against you when on the enemy team. Large groups of them can out-heal any damage you inflict, but against units their performance is pitiful. The Zenith is useful for taking them down as it is equipped for combat rather than support. It is vital that enemy Megas must be destroyed instead of being distracted, as they can also rebuild destroyed blocks and reset your progress (in PvP). Failing that, you can simply get tier 4 units with the Exponential Reconstructor, which will easily take care of any Megas in the way due to their extremely high damage.\n\nMegas can attack your base directly if they have no enemy Cores to tend to, with unpredictable movement much like the Poly. You can engage with Poly or Mega of your own, using other blocks to soak up enemy shots.\n\n---\n_Source: [Fandom: Mega](https://mindustry-unofficial.fandom.com/wiki/Mega) (CC-BY-SA-3.0、 mindustry-unofficial Fandom contributors)_","trivia":"*Before the introduction of command mode, Megas functioned much like the Spirit Repair Drone from before Version 4.0.\n*The Mega is named after the metric unit prefix mega-, denoting a factor of one million.\n*Despite having the same size as its payload capacity, the Mega is unable to carry itself.\n*The Mega's sprite is made up of 3 Trident ships, a removed player ship from V4 to V5.\n*Mega and Nova share the same firing sound.\n\n---\n_Source: [Fandom: Mega](https://mindustry-unofficial.fandom.com/wiki/Mega) (CC-BY-SA-3.0、 mindustry-unofficial Fandom contributors)_","version_history":"''This section is incomplete.''\n{| class=\"fandom-table\"\n!'''Update'''\n!'''Changes'''\n|-\n|Version 6.0, unknown build\n|Added.\n|-\n|Build 125\n| Now flees from enemies.\n|-\n|Build 127\n|\n*Range decreased (23 blocks → 22).\n*Heal guns (first pair) fire rate increased (2x 1.2 shots per second → 2x 1.25).\n|-\n|Build 128\n| Speed converted from 2.5 arbitrary units to 18.75 tiles/second.\n|-\n|Build 129\n|\n*Can now mine sand if controlled by a player and the \"Double-tap/click to mine\" option is enabled.\n*Heal guns (first pair) healing increased (5% → 5.5%).\n|-\n|Build 136\n|\n*Command limit of 8 removed.\n*Payload capacity converted from 4 blocks² to 2x2 blocks.\n|-\n|Build 137\n|\n*Can now use commands repair, rebuild, assist player, and mine.\n|-\n|Build 147\n|\n*Can now use commands load units, load blocks, unload payload, and loop unit transfer.\n*Range increased (22 → 22.2)\n|}\n\n---\n_Source: [Fandom: Mega](https://mindustry-unofficial.fandom.com/wiki/Mega) (CC-BY-SA-3.0、 mindustry-unofficial Fandom contributors)_","ammo_details":"{| class=\"article-table\"\n!Weapon\n!Stats\n|-\n|48x48px\n|\n*Firing rate: 2x 1.25/sec\n*10 damage\n*5.5% repair (blocks)\n|-\n|48x48px\n|\n*Firing rate: 2x 2/sec\n* 8 damage\n*3% repair (blocks)\n|}\n{| class=\"article-table mw-collapsible mw-collapsed\"\n|+Expanded weapon details\n!Weapon\n!Stats\n|-\n|48x48px\n|\n*Firing rate: 2x 1.25/sec:\n**0.4sec reload (24 ticks)\n*Rotation speed: 20/tick\n*Bullet:\n**Type: LaserBoltBulletType\n**10 damage\n**5.5% repair (blocks)\n**Effective range: 22.75\n***39 tiles/sec speed\n***0.58sec lifetime (35 ticks)\n|-\n|48x48px\n|\n*Firing rate: 2x 2/sec\n*0.25sec reload (15 ticks)\n*Rotation speed: 20/tick\n*Bullet:\n**Type: LaserBoltBulletType\n**8 damage\n**3% repair (blocks)\n**Effective range: 22.75\n***39 tiles/sec speed\n***0.58sec lifetime (35 ticks)\n|}\n\n---\n_Source: [Fandom: Mega](https://mindustry-unofficial.fandom.com/wiki/Mega) (CC-BY-SA-3.0、 mindustry-unofficial Fandom contributors)_","health":460,"armor":3,"speed":2.5,"locomotion":"air","role":"transport","tier":3,"planet":"serpulo","hero_image":"/images/mindustry/mega.webp","description":"Automatically repairs damaged structures.
