Strange artillery changes in 1.48 -- manual trajectory calculation -- the mk6 scope doesn't work
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Hello

Since the update 1.48 we are not able to hit any targets without the arma3 artillery computer. If we use "enableEngineArtillery false;" and calculating i.e. the targets via http://a3arty.arma3.no/ ( http://i.imgur.com/vnL2jsI.png ) the impacts are always to short, about 200 - 400 meters.

Fix please this issue, that the mathematic is working again in arma3:

You can test it with testart1.Stratis.zip.

Additional Information

I did tests with the mk6 mortar and Arma3Legacy146. It worked without troubles.

I did screenshots of the test on stratis. Have look at it. There you can see, that only shooting via bi artillery computer hits the targets. Shooting via "MK6 scope" and via "manual trajectory calculation" is far away from the target. Please roll back your game physics (1.46) and do in future please more testing before sending updates like you did in 1.48. Thanx, i hope, you will correct the issue immediately. A lot of people are angry about this issue. Please think about it...

This issue still persists in the newest update.

Confirmed! There is no way to hit a building without artillery computer. I tried my own calculation based on standard ballistic without air friction, I obtain the same results as in the MK6 scope (1st person). So, it's not a math bug. Did you change something else? Why computer is so accurate but scope not?? Initial velocity of shell?
