targeting recticle

Sat Apr 26, 2003 11:59 pm by sir0die

one thing i've notice (which was also true in Privateer) if the speeds of your prjectiles of your gun vary alot, the targeting rectile is off. so try and match your guns projectile speeds. i currently have all my weapon projectile speed @ 600, to match my nomad cannons, and i hit things all the time. I tried with my 2 class9 guns having a speed of 500, i couldn't even hit the damn derelicts unless i came to a standstill.

if ya don't believe me, test it yourself.

Not a bug, but the reticle trying to adjust for having guns with different projectile speeds. If you have guns that shoot at 600mps and 700mps on, the reticle will show the average, this means that you will shoot to both sides of your target unless it is very near. Turn off a set and the reticle will be right on target again. It's actually behaving exactly the way it is supposed too, its just the mix of guns that causes it to get a bit confused.
