A couple of days ago I was playing a series of Quick Combats, and I was a bit of amazed about the hitting power of some of the guns in the aircraft I was using, but then, when I flew a combat in a different plane with the same weapons, I didn't get similar results.
I decided to have a look at the dp files of many of the aircraft and ,following instructions of the readme in DPED by Yusaku Homma, specifically the guns section.
If I understand it right, the hitting power of a gun is stablished mainly by this dice field. Well, in most dp files this numbers were absolutely diferent for the same weapons: a Hispano Suiza 20mm gun in the 1% Hurricane MkIIc has a dice value of 1d1*71.9 (a real killer ), while a 20mm gun in the YAS Spitfire MkVb has a value of 1d1*26. Other values like Rate of Fire, Range or Muzzle Velocity are very often also different.Originally Posted by Mr. Homma
Any comments anyone?. I am just arrived, so I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I wouldn't be surprised if it has so I'd be happy to read anything the experts have to say about that matter .
