Can someone who knows explain this bit from Malfadors SE5 news?

"Now you can use formulas for all of those pesky ability amounts"
Ever play Starfury? The data files will have a single entry for a component family. This single entry will have component level based values. It will look something like:

Weapon Type := Direct Fire
Weapon Target Type List := Ship, Base, Planet,
Fighter, Satellite, Drone
Weapon Damage Type := Normal
Weapon At Range Distance Increment := 10.0
Weapon Min Damage At Range := 15.0 10.0 5.0
0.0 0.0
Weapon Max Damage At Range := 20.0 15.0 10.0
5.0 0.0
Weapon To Hit Modifier At Range := -10.0 -20.0 -30.0
-40.0 -50.0
Weapon Min Damage Modifier Formula := [%ListedAmount%] +
(([%Level%]-1) * 0.5)
Weapon Max Damage Modifier Formula := [%ListedAmount%] +
(([%Level%]-1) * 0.5)
