This figure is a divisor, so raising it shortens the wait between shots: the default halves the reload delay, and 0 leaves it unchanged. It reaches only an object whose rank grants it the ROF ability through VeteranAbilities or EliteAbilities.
Several paths return a delay before this step and are therefore never shortened: a sonic weapon, a weapon whose spark, fire, or railgun particle system is attached, a building holding more than one round of ammunition, and the shots inside a burst. Only the delay that follows the final shot of a burst is reduced.
