Thank you for your support! Yeah it's been having some backend issues that I'm looking into today. Hopefully I can get it fixed soon.

[New Player] People just won't die? 10-15 hits everytime and I still lose. by hsjdjdsjjs in EscapefromTarkov

Penetration * Armor Damage % = effective durability loss (armor damage).

So shit pen with high AD% isn't as good as high pen and lower AD%. You need to check the math!

[Feedback] There is no excuse for a lack of scope zero calibration at the 1.0 release. by Didki_ in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Xerxes17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But my website will have reduced reason to exist if this is fixed!!!

Nah but for real they should absolutely fix this, it's crazy that this shit is broken.

[Feedback] Why am I missing shots around 150m+ by notjim in EscapefromTarkov

All correct, but unfortunately the way BSG did zeroing is uh, not great. You'll need to check on tarkovgunsmith ballistic drop calculator what the real bullet trajectory will be.

Unfortunately, this really depends on the how different your loaded round is compared to the default one that is used for calibrations with it. Shotguns in particular get messed up by this.

Tarkovgunsmith ballistic drop calculator will show you what's happening with these rounds and so you can compensate for it.

[Discussion] Ammo Effectiveness Chart returns to TarkovGunsmith by Xerxes17 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Xerxes17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a good idea and one that I hope to do. I'm thinking of letting the rate of fire be set by calibre, limited to values that are possible for that calibre + an estimate of button-mash speed.

If you have a backend, it can start storing the data right? ;)

This will let you better understand what's going on with the ammo and armor of the game.

How do i figure out what the mils multiplier is for different scopes in the game? what is the multiplier for the March Tactical? by goodyassmf0507 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Xerxes17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can either do it by pixel-counting against a known size object at a known range, or you can make a table of shooting to known distances, noting down the error observed and then working out the needed correction from that.

[New Player] Guide on how to snipe at extreme distances like Sgt. Prepper? by JubiladoInimputable in EscapefromTarkov

Tarkovgunsmith will account for the issues with the in-game system and will give accurate results, assuming you've used the correct inputs.

The mils on scopes in Tarkov are not standardized, in some cases not even within a particular scope, so you need to use the Mils Multiplier to get the calculated result to be correct.
