Projectile Cap Raised

Faster bullets.
I wish this could happen, but I know it probably never will. I think raising it to 400 is a perfectly reasonable request... is there any particular reason why it's capped at a painfully frustrating 200? It deprecates long-ranged sniping warfare. I mean, I know something like 10,000 might cause problems with the game engine itself, but 400 should be fine. Sigh........................

That's why you lead your shots.

400 seems like a reasonable speed, that's double the sniper rifle speed so it'd say that 400 is a good speed.

1,000
... speedy thing goes in, speedy thing goes out.

I beleive that the military sniper and the old school rifle shoot 500

or 10000000000
great for noob traps
1/1000000 of a millsecond later and they are dead

The problem with this is that it's at that cap for a reason.

It has to do with the timing of the simulation ticks for the engine.

Listen to this guy. He knows his stuff.

Yea he does. You've still got to wonder though... would bumping it to 400 really be that problematic?

It probably would, if Badspot set it at 200, it should stay at 200.

The OSR and Bushido's Military Sniper are raycasting or something. Meaning the bullet hits the location the crosshair is aimed at the instant you pull the trigger.

There is no bullet, it draws an imaginary line.

Raising it may or may not be an easy task. It may be a simple setting to change how the engine works or it may be very difficult.

Well... in any case, I can live with the 200 cap. I was just seeing how the community would take this.
