What can effect the damage of the weapon? |
Of course,the weapon's level and its weapon mount can effect the damage of the weapon obviously.
But someone tell me that when you place all your weapons in the front area of your ship,the weapons will do more damage than other situations.I am not sure of it.Is it true?
No.
Where the weapon is located on a ship don't affect how much damage it will deal on whatever it is attacking. Location on a ship just affect what componment will be destroyed first and last. You can put them anywhere you want, there is no in-build bonus or penality (probably moddable but no one did yet).

Component Location
What would really help is if the ship layout was numbered in the order that that slot took damage. It would really help in designing ships.

Not really possible aside from the inner/outer system. It depends completely on which direction you're taking hits from..
Where a weapon is located in
Where a weapon is located in a ship (to my experience) determines when it will be destroyed when your armour is breached. What I mean when being attacked from the front components at the back are destroyed last. When designing ships I put the bridge/ M.Computer etc in the center of the ship coz they will usually be the last to be destroyed, given the ships don't stay in the one place to fight.
Leson 1) Place 1 or 2 engines in the bowles of your ships to ensure movement when heavily damaged.
lesson 2) Spread your weapons evenly throughout ships. If there all in the front one good shot will blow them all up.
As for doing more damage when mounted in the nose I haven't encountered it yet .... but I'm still kinda new.
