.target, a space and the distance.

Here's an example of what I use to sight in the yak9t cannon.

.target 1500

Does anyone know if guns were adjustable vertically as well as horizontally?

Most probably know where I'm going with this.


Oh, I see where it's going, but I think if it gets there, HT or grandpa is gonna kill you.  :devil

bstr,

What is the target .dot command to bring up the target?
I used it a long time ago but cannot remember....and how do you reset the target once you have fired a few rounds.  After a while the target gets a lot of holes in it and you can't see where the bulllets are hitting.

.target xxxxxxxx <-------your distance in yardes 300, 400, etc.
.target 0 <------- closes the target but is the only way I know to clear it. Just being it back up again.

yes they generally were, and no ours arent ...

Well, kinda. When you set a gun to distance, it sets the vertical and horizontal at the same time to be able to hit that distance. You can really see this if you set a 110's guns out far and try to hit something at 400 or so, as the slow rounds it shoots will lob over your target if you hold it dead on instead of aiming under it. The faster rounds are not as noticable for the bullet drop.
