203mm Artillery Computer?
The 203mm cannon is awesome, but it's challenging to zero in an artillery shell quickly, there's a great need for an artillery computer ingame script, I'm going to attempt to investigate this myself but if anyone has already solved for this I'd love to hear how you did it! Share your knowledge!

Why not study the artillery manuals of the army?

Angle to hit a target x meters away is 1/2 * arcsin(gx/v^2) (assuming no altitude variation, but solving for both is trivial)

Would be nice to have a script that would let you lase targets and automatically fire on them, though

There's a pair of scripts on the WS designed to work solely with Northwind 203s
Named Smarty and Tarty respectively

Wrote up a table for some field-tested values, obviously you'll need to modify for your respective gravity: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gt8UZmyKR-tezcmnhkXdzXKWfGwJXFSQRsiAdpufAZE/edit?usp=sharing
