Artillery calculator
By pastuh
99% of players can't understand how to use artillery and requires additional player to provide that information.
This 'tool' can help to find required distance and angle if you play solo.

Map info
If you play only officer, and you can place markers on map, use this: HLL MINI-calculator:
HLL MINI-calculator[pastuh.github.io]
Very simple to use, just put distance (in meter) and you will get elevation angle (in milliradian)

---

If you use old computer, you can feel more lag.
  • To use this tool while in-game.. Two monitors suggested
  • Image files a little big, so requires better internet

Website (OLD version maps, not updated):
HLL Fields[pastuh.github.io] []
HLL Forest[pastuh.github.io]
HLL FOY[pastuh.github.io]
HLL Utah Beach[pastuh.github.io]
HLL Omaha Beach[pastuh.github.io]

Short information:


After selecting target, you can see:
Mil numbers (shooting distance)
Cannon angle and direction
More info
In this post developers mentioned they allow to create 'range book' or map to record elevation and traverse.. (Thats why i post here)

Without commander is much harder to 'find and destroy' target.
So you need watch map, check your teammates positions and where they look.
In this way you can easy predict location (especially if they attack city)


- Don't forget Commander also use ammunition points, so don't shoot everywhere or you lose game.
Example
Take note:
You set one time Artillery angle ( if need ) and thats it. ( Default: 0° )
Your main rotation will be only with Cannon ( rotate where you want )

But if you must change Artillery to -30° , you need set first Cannon to 0° angle view.
And later rotate Artillery.

Below example with GER-1 weapon:

Artillery (main weapon) almost never rotates, only Cannon
( so you check only Cannon numbers )
If, Cannon number not match with in-game information, means Artillery was rotated.

Example with above image: if you see at Shooter view ( 0° angle ) number 340, means Artillery rotated wrong.

---
Note:
Map FOY, Weapon: GER-1
Possible, developers made mistake with degree numbers..
It shows 147 and 194 , but in reality feels like 148 and 195..
So believe in 'tool' map numbers (Cannon)
Grid system
For now GRID system ( UTM ) active only for map: Fields

  • By default disabled
  • After activation use Mouse2 to preview

You can write coordinates to check location.


Format:
ABbCCDD
Example for fields map:
E23050



A position: Starts with any Zone letter. ( C, D, E, F, G, H )
E*****

Bb position: is Zone vertical number: ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 )
E2****

CC 'Easting' numbers (horizontal line, from left to right) (Each Zone have 0-99 numbers)
E230**

DD 'Northing' numbers( vertical line, from bottom to top) (Each Zone have 0-99 numbers)
E23050



More examples:
D15050 D102010 E19930 F70000

If you want to focus 5 meters from the left, you must write with zero in front: 05
If you pressed 'Preview' button, it will lock location, to remove lock, uncheck checkbox

German and US calculations not changed.
But now facts which can decide if you really want to use artillery:
Elevation speed dramatically changed (slower)
Dispersion 2m-20m meters. (possible you never hit exactly at tank, so don't waste ammo. Now I don't suggest to shoot near teammates. Possible TK)

Possible Russian artillery is different.
I will check how everything works.

- But map layout calculator will not be updated.
(Because it's half a guide, so I still leave this info there..)

This still apply wit the new update?
Garmo 24 Jul, 2021 @ 5:51am 
Thank you!!
pastuh  [author] 24 Jul, 2021 @ 12:45am 
I think it takes 25 seconds to reach target (same for all distances)
Area of destruction around 50 meters.
Garmo 23 Jul, 2021 @ 2:43pm 
whats the eta of impact at certain distances? anyone know

@aaron_
Entirely right.
PinkGoose6473 26 Aug, 2020 @ 5:59pm 
You literally don't have to go through all of this.

Mark the target > dial according to the distance ex. 717 MIL = 1200 Meters and shoot. That simple. It tells you on the side of the screen as you're using it.

Yo, they changed grid on map. How do I read it accurate now? It's 3x3 not 10x10 anymore.

Using Arty is very easy, I learned it pretty fast just by using it.

Nice guide anyways for those who don't get it
