That’s incorrect according to the source for the speed provided above.
The aiming / tracking speed is 0.017°/s to 10°/s for the leopard 2
For the Abrams that would be 0.25mils/s to 75mils/s or about 0.014°/s to 4.5°/s
The minium speed is actually also very important as it defines how „pixel perfect“ you can get the radicle on target. On the Leo 2 this became a tiny bit worse with the electrical drive (compared to hydraulic), and made a noticeable difference to gunners.
.
That’s why I am asking @_David_Bowie how he thinks these thing will be implemented. Even the most basic values (e.g. gun accuracy) are not implemented yet.
Yet you are talking already about aim mode, turret drive acceleration, drive torque, controller inputs etc.
For 99% of the vehicles ingame, we will never have that data.
The electric turret drives are far more accurate than a human could ever hope to be, there is no noticeable difference except perhaps when the electro-hydraulic system isn’t properly maintained and is outside it’s correct operation pressure range.
On a sidenote, anyone else find it hilarious that Leo 2 gets it’s gun depression limited because of the FCS limits (-9 over front and +3 over rear), but the Soviet tanks not only have their unstabilised depression angles (1 degree too much) but also get an artificial 1 degree extra because the devs decided to put the “default” position relative to the hull which is angled at 89° instead of 90…
So they essentially get 2° more gun depression than they should.
No and I’m not sure there’s much point tbh.
I have tried reasoning with Gaijin in the past using primary sources and they have been rejected because it didn’t fit their idea of “balance”.
A Leo gunner I talked to used both the hydraulic and electrical system said that the hydraulic system is a little bit more responsive/precise in movement and that the electrical takes getting used to. I would be surprised if they are perfectly identical (not just on paper).
Isn’t there even a procedure to use the hand pumps to „fine adjust“ if the powered system is unable to do it precisely enough?
He might think so, but the fact of the matter is that the electric turret drives are just as responsive and precise as the electro-hydraulic ones.
They should even have less backlash (hydraulic fluid is slightly compressible).
It’s just the acceleration profile that differs and it is incredibly minute, but the electro-hydraulic system will change over time and use.
There’s two limits that will be reached before that of the turret drives themselves:
well good we already found multiple sources stating otherwise, which are more believeable then those, the others should be compiling them and notifiyng you.
Just pls dont jump the gun in implementing it, gajin isnt the best in fixing those mistake, like it is proven with the M735 round nerf that happend because of wrongly read documents and isnt fixed yet
