These are the world coordinates of the target, same as GPS coordinates.

how does the X and Y work on the controller i dont understand it

Thank you !!

Hi, thanks for the analysis. Updated the controller with your value.

hello, little follow up

Was able to fix the issue by setting the drag coefficient in the array to 0.00098 as opposed to 0.0001. Not sure if the number was always wrong, or if the changed it, but it seems to work accurately now

hello, banger controller as always

although unfortunately it seems to be inaccurate for Artillery cannons, as in direct it tends to fall short and in indirect it overshoots by around 100 metres. I’m unable to figure out what’s going wrong, but I recreated the issue on the demo vehicle to make sure it wasn’t me failing to hook up the logic correctly. and this also happens on all physics types

do you happen to have any ideas on what might be happening?

No, barrel extensions do not affect the cannon range.

can it account for barrel extensions?

Ah, thats a shame.

Hi, im too done with this game and dont want to make any fixes and add new features, probably another controller capable of indirect fire would be more accurate.

hello ?

and nearly at the same spots, nearly no spread

The issue is, i've fired a large group, and it consistently overshoots, it doesn't undershoot, or go left nor right

Indirect fire mode has a very large imminent spread, with projectile flight times about 30 seconds.

using the demo btw

in indirect fire it seems to tend to overshoot or undershoot by a bit, shooting a fairly large group to take spread out of the equation

Yeah well it handles the same I managed to somehow fix that using function -0.04 and -0.02 depending on distance

Make sure your GPS sensor is placed at the same altitude as the cannons. Also if target altitude is set to 0 or its node is not connected, it is counted the same altitude as vehicle GPS sensor.

For curiosity if I am using it on naval targets and their altitude is 0 why do I have to put like altitude -20 or -70 so i can direct hit it when in about 1.5km distance

You can set the target altitude to 0 or make it the same as your altitude.

wait what am i yapping about its all about the instincts

its not like i walk up to my enemy and calmly say "wassup i need to know what altidute your vehicle of destruction is so i can accurately and cutely launch a Artillery Cannon in your direction and destroy everything"

target altidute? how tf am i supposed to know

is it possible to up the max distation,cause 7 KM is very low for me

The controller is designed to hit only stationary targets, when not your vehicle nor the target itself is not moving. It does not have any tracking and prediction logic.

Yeah, I checked everything, tried different settings, placed wind sensor both on vehicle base and gun, tried different gear ratios on pivots, different speed setting in microcontroller, nothing seem to make a difference. The canon aim where it is supposed to, no errors on instrument panel but it looks like it compensates for speed way too much and sometimes shoots too short of target. I might use different microcontroller but if you think you may improve the performance while shooting from moving vehicle, it would be very appreciated. I already built other vehicles with your microcontroller, both tanks and artillery and they work really well when stationary. Great microcontroller though!

Also, it is designed to hit only stationary targets from stationary positions.

The controller works fine, make sure if you connected all the nodes and installed all sensors correctly. The LUA code has no actual errors, and the built-in checker gives false positive result, related to the issue it cant call functions property.getNumber() before the vehicle is spawned. Check the demo page , it will show the same error message, although everything works as intended.

Shows error in LUA block when you run Check Errors. Trying to make it work at my gunship aircraft while travelling at 200kmh with artillery canon. It's very incacurate (spread around 100m at 2km) and can't find a fix for it

While in indirect mode, the controller outputs Target Out of Limits regardless of input or angle limitations.

When I looked into the LUA, I found a syntax error on Line 64 attempting to index a Nil value but I didn't have time to debug the minified code.

I'm pretty bad with logic and I managed to get everything but rotation working on my WIP vehicle. Im using a robotic pivot for rotation it keeps going back and forth to the target and then to the same area in the opposite direction I have no idea how to fix this.

thanks

No.

"Cannon orientation on vehicle spawn can be any, like forward, backward, left or right." what about up and down? it are capable of low orbital striking?

thank you

Fixed the unwanted gun depression and the potential division by zero.

seems to be an issue i have a bunch of battle cannon turrets on their own version of this but the same base physics sensor and wind sensor but i have wind off both elevator and traverse pivots are velocity and are set accordingly and elevation angle set to 90 and max depreciation angle to 0 but after so long they say they tried to divide by 0 and slowly lower one by one

Now it work. The problom was in Physic sensor or more precisely in their location. I installed them incorrectly :)

Yes, vehicle movement is not implemented. Vehicle tilt is counted for all cannons and rockets.

Check that your physics sensor gets power, or it wont work.

I ran into the issue, that the calculator seems to ignore vehicle speed. When moving and firing, it won't hit it's target. I guess vehicle movement hasn't been implemented, right?

And is it maybe possible, that the calculation for rockets lacks the tilt of the vehicle? I seem to be only able to hit a target with rockets, when the platform is level.

Limits are set, but maybe the problem is in the Physical Sensors, I'm using them for the first time. Or maybe an old version of the game

Check if all sensors are installed correctly, or increase the angle limits.

Why calculator allways writing "Target out of angle limit", if the target is in front of the gun

Ok, send me the xml or the workshop link.

i have the sensors set correctly and the pivots set to robotic pivots (which is what i have on my build)

Should work fine, check the pivots type and sensors orientation, as in demo .

i connect everything correctly and when i input coordinates it gives me an output elevation of 0.03 no matter what. changing the coordinates, altitude or firing mode doesnt change anything. i have the physics sensors, i have the compite connected, keypads connected.. etc....
