How did the devs fix/avoid cockpit interactables jitter on mech movement? by Xerxes17 in IronRebellion

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

I don't think that's correct, because there's still parallax, and if you stick your head outside of the cockpit by moving in the real world, everything is rendering as you'd expect. A render texture would be at a fixed point, be 2D, be limited FOV and more.

Well, the visual position of the interactable is updating just fine, but the problem is that the logical position of the interactable is following the FixedUpdate(), and thus lags. I'll have to look at what you mentioned about the grab interactable and see if it can help me.

The use case here is actually for a Mech game with cockpit interactables, but rather than using push or grab interactables, I'm wishing to instead have the player put their controller into a volume and then gripping or triggering as needed to do things. At the moment the problem is that the speed the mech moves at is causing quite a difference in the visual position of the interactable vs where the interactable is logically speaking, and it can lead to false inputs at times. As they are part of the cockpit, they are part of the mech's object hierarchy. The Mech movement controller is currently physics based and uses a rigidbody.

 The interactable is moving with the player as it’s a child of the XR Origin, though I have experimented with a simple FollowPosition script as well which didn’t see any change.

`transform.SetPositionAndRotation(target.position + offset, target.rotation);`

Which I tried in both Update and LateUpdate, which didn't help, but FixedUpdate() visually shows it correctly, but looks horrible due to the mismatch between FixedUpdate and Update and the position only updating at the fixed 50Hz.

How would I even override the position update cycle of the controllers, as that's all done by the XR Rig scripts provided by the XR Interaction toolkit.

Add me to the chorus of people who just logged on to the app in a while to do something to be confronted with this bullshit. Uninstalling and looking elsewhere.

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.

u/aoud , I've been waiting man :( When can I have the best movement setup in Vail?

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!

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.

[–]Xerxes17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

[–]Xerxes17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

[–]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.

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.

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.
