ARMA 3 BLUEHARVEST MOD

Only the explosionShielding (and minimalHit) property can mitigate this. Ranged indirectHit damage bypasses your armor (firegeometry) and damages you anyway. Due to damage to all locations, damage to global health can be very high and somewhat hard to calculate. (The location closest to the impact takes the most damage and so on.). If a target is within range (our trusty tank in the above diagram), it takes the same all-location damage described in part A. If the projectile has just about enough penetration to penetrate the block, so that it is exit speed is 1xiHR and 4xiHR: No iH damage is dealt If the caliber value is > 0, but not high enough to penetrate through the block's material, it will also kill. If the projectile has caliber=0 (no penetration) it will outright 'kill'. This means that very thin firegeometry will cause low amount of damage in most cases (as many projectiles will fully penetrate).Įxample: A projectile (simulation=shotShell or shotBullet) with hit=1 impacts on a block with armor=1 (means one hit kills in best case). The formula for this is unknown and also seems to be nonlinear. The portion of damage depends on the amount of speed the projectile lost during penetration. Only a portion of the directDamage of the projectile will be dealt to the Hitpoint. In this case the Hitpoint will receive 100% of the directDamage (directDamage = (Hit - indirectHit)*speedmodifier ) of the projectileĬase A: In contrary to Case B, the projectile completely penetrates the FG. Only a hitpoint's minimalHit and explosionShielding values can protect against indirectHit reaching through armor to cause damage.Ĭase B: The projectile does not penetrate through the entire FG. As the diagram shows, armor (in the form of fire geometry) can protect against direct damage-but indirectHit damage can easily occur without penetration (especially when indirectHitRange is large). Attack E is an example of an indirectHit attack. In the diagram above, attacks A-D are examples of direct attacks (indirectHit & indirectHitRange = 0). In Simple terms: an attack must simultaneously penetrate both fire geometry and a hitpoint radius to cause the most damage to a vehicle. HitPoints defined in its config.cpp file.Fire Geometry modeled in its P3D file and.For damage to occur, a vehicle must have: It's important to understand that penetration and damage are not exactly the same thing in Arma 3-they have a slightly indirect relationship. Sometime in Q1 of 2015, the RAM information will be removed from this page and relocated to its own wiki.
