ZE Artillery Ballistic Calculator

Calculates the turret rotation and elevation angle to hit a stationary target based on its GPS coordinates.

• Calculates projectile trajectory for all types of mounted guns and rocket launchers.
  
• Indirect (mortar) fire mode is available for rockets and cannons with shell projectiles.
  
• Complete air drag correction, vehicle tilt correction, and wind correction for both direct and indirect trajectories.
  
• Precise angles adjustment to compensate for weak pivots.
  
• Limits for rotation and elevation angles for both robotic and velocity pivots.
  
• Outputs projectile travel time and indicates if target is out of range or out of angle limits.
  
• Minimum target distance for indirect fire mode is 100 meters.
  
• Pivot turn speed is calibrated for default gear ratio 1:4. If you need to change their speed, i recommend to do it only with the corresponding slider in controller properties.
  
• If you don't specify a target altitude, it will be set to the cannon altitude.
  
• Set all target coordinates to 0 to reset the turret position.
  
• Cannon orientation on vehicle spawn can be any, like forward, backward, left or right.

Designed to hit only stationary targets, has no tracking prediction logic, and requires a couple of seconds for pivots adjustment after every change of target coordinates. Any additional tracking controllers will be ineffective.
