Title: Display accuracy vs faster targets
Post by: Cristo on January 06, 2021, 06:42:02 AM
Currently missile chance to hit is shown vs targets moving at 1k, 3k, 5k, 10k in the design window

It would be very helpful if this could be increased to show 20k and 40k.

I'm not sure how common this is but the first enemy missile I ever encountered was going at 44k, so easy access to the CTH for higher values would be very useful!

Thanks!

Speeds that high are only for missiles (and 44k is high tech). But yes I agree it should be displayed, though you can extrapolate what the accuracy is from the lower speeds it is more convenient to just have a number.

Yeah I was wanting it for AMMs.

The 20k chance is always double the 10k chance.

I assume you mean half? I know that, it's purely a QOL improvement to avoid one having to do the (admittedly simple) maths for 20 and 40k speeds.

Edit - I hope that doesn't come across as rude, just trying to be clear :)

You are correct. I mean half. And its never rude to point out my mistakes, otherwise I wouldn't learn anything from them :)

The kind of excellent attitude that I should have expected from the creator of such an excellent game!

It would be nice if you could set the missile target speeds in the same way you can for BFC target speed and beam range.
Although maybe it should be part of the missile design screen and/or the technology screen.
