Sorry that i write it here,but i think it should be something you may look at. I made some tests with acuracy. I tested with crew exp 70 (i used exp 70 becouse it dont add any possitive or negative bonusses to accuracy) fire solution at certain distances against size 5 target. I found that Firecontrol rating have only a very litle to do with accuracy. I used rangefinder 22 and gun accuracy 10.I rised FC from 0 to 90 and i found that it adds only 3% for every 10 points of Firecontrol rating, so tank with FC 20 with same gun and rangefinder have accuracy only 6% lower than tank with Firecontrol 40, which represents modern firecontrol with digital balistic computer. So it looks that now,is the rangefinder value what defines accuracy,FC and gun accuracy have just little effect.

When you tested this were all the tanks your fired stationary?? Were the targets stationary??

Yes, Stationary vs stationary

[JaM]

I didnt fired at them, it is just target lock propability. I use that metod becouse there are some other things that interfere with fire propability. Vision was set to 80, to have clear 4000m field of view

FC + stabilizers enter into the equations a bit more when targeting moving targets. With a stationary firer and a stationary target you could almost bore sight most guns. FC acts a little like a rangefinder, and also allows for better shooting on moving targets.

Accuracy is only the *basic* starting point. You need to take Stab, RF, FC, and crew Exp into account, plus target size, move status, own move status, own suppression state,target dug in or hull down, target in woods etc. etc. etc.

However Andy and I are experimenting with a code change that should boost the tanks with higher FC and RF so that they are a bit more likely gain more to-hit % within a three shot average than the EXE you have now

I have 2 questions:

1st: Could there be an online game feature in WinSPMBT like there is in SpWaW?

2nd: When loading units into vehicles the screen does not allow scrolling. This coplicates loading especially on deployment phase. Could the scrolling be enabled?

*****There are no plans to do that at this time

If you click on the mini map you can move to any point on the map that way and it's generally a lot quicker than scrolling. However, scrolling did work while loading in the past so we'll investigate this

Now fixed. When the patch is released that screen will scroll
