Re: Got home, got manual, got disappointed!
Mostly by rumor mongering.
Sunray and others gathers bits of info here and there and puts it together in nice documents.
Many of the mechanics are not known by us either, but we can look them up in the code, should the demand arise.
Much of the 'hidden knowledge' can probably be found if you use the search function on this forum.
If you want to know something, just ask. Someone is bound to answer. Either me or some of the forum addicts

It's kind of good to know that!
Well, I did ask and so far and did not get a satisfying answer (the question was about the formula determining the square where a missile or ranged spell attack would hit. More precisely, how to calculate the chance of hitting the right square depending on range, actual range and precision), but I'm not sure I really want to now anymore because it might kill the athomsphere of the game...ah well, of course I want know...

Precision has recently been changed (2.09-beta) so I'm not sure how it works. But I didn't have a clue before either.

Re: Got home, got manual, got disappointed!
Chance of hitting a given square:
(1-(1-((2+prec)/(2+prec+1.5*range))))*(1-(prec/100)^2))*(prec/100)^.2
Doesn't it look about like that to you? You have to actually watch the battle replays to get a good feel for the exact equations, not just look at the results...
