Scoop on Combat Trim

I don't claim to know what the hell I'm talking about as far as the real-life lethality of guns, but if I'm patient, and get to a reasonable range and at convergence with the 20mm on my niki, it takes just a very short burst of fire to get something major to fall off the target and send him spinning or floating back down to the earth.  How many rounds would you expect it to take???  In any WWII guncam footage that I've seen, I've never seen anyone stop firing after one or two bullets...they just spray the crap out of 'em until lurch over and fall.

 I fly the nik also. And for the same reason. What you will find if you set up an arena. Is that all the guns work. including the MG,s. The 202 becomes a plane to fear like all the rest.

Easymo where did you ever get the idea that 5.0 is 100% lethality.

1.0 is what we belive is real lethality.

 HT. I have never heard of more then 100% of anything. If the setting is there. Then that must be 100%. If there were a 6.0000 setting.than that would become 100%

 BTW  thanks for the ajustable settings. So I can put in what I thinK is realsitic

Hangtime:

*phew*, what you said made me feel much better, ty  . Never heard the phrase before, but it succintly describes what my options (or lack thereof) are.

easy, what about a 110% increase in profits for a company? They earned 10 bucks a year, now they earn 21. For lethality, 10 cannon rounds cause 10 damage, with 5.0, they cause 50 damage. Think that's the way to read it but could be wrong.
