For shooting on a diagonal, use Pythagoras Theorem diagonal distance is sqrt((x2-x1)^2 + (z2-z1)^2) where cannon is at (x1, z1) and target at (x2, z2) For better angle calculation try plotting your known data points in Desmos and then fitting some kind of sine curve to them

The schwerer Gustav was bad at aiming at moving targets it was desingt to destroy the maginot line. Aiming worked by moving it along a circel of 2 Tracks. It also needed to be transportet on multipil diferent trains to the destination. Then it needed to be asembeled. So all in all it is not good to use it against a tank. But it is still a good joke.

The part is true where rail had to be pulled and replaced to accommodate the turning, but it also required (iirc) 4 locomotives to even move it.

@GavinLowry-on4fr nope, the two shells are different. AP for artillery is for hardened structures that the standard HE can't deal with. This notably can apply to killing tanks. In the Gustav's case "only" 250kg of the total 7100kg weight was explosive filler for it's AP shells.

Great project! One thing though, while calculating the distance you only took the angle of the barrel in consideration. In real life mortar/artillery firing you also have to consider the amount of charges used. If you mix and match both the amount of charges and the angle of the barrel, you can pretty much hit any block you want

[@CyberCreeper303]

Take the following with a grain of salt, as I did ask chat got to get this answer, but here's some information that seems at least plausible on how the gustav turned Adjustable Axles for Steering: The gun was not able to make sharp turns like a smaller artillery piece. For sharper turns or to maneuver around tight corners, the gun’s multiple carriages had special arrangements where the axles of the wheels could be adjusted, allowing for some flexibility in alignment, though this still required specific track layouts. Large Turning Radius: Because of its size and the fact that it was a railway gun, the Gustav had an enormous turning radius. It was designed to be moved along large, specifically prepared tracks, which sometimes included wide curves or even custom-built tracks to navigate difficult terrain. Articulating Train Design: The Gustav gun was not a single unit on a solid base. It was composed of several railway cars connected in a train-like formation. These cars were not fixed rigidly; they had some flexibility to allow for better maneuvering. However, the entire arrangement was still massive and could not freely navigate curves like a smaller piece of equipment. Adjustable and Steering Axles: Some of the axles on the carriages were steering axles, which allowed the train to navigate curves more easily. These axles could be adjusted to steer the wheels at a slight angle, effectively turning the train's direction when moving along a curved track. This feature was particularly useful for navigating turns on the railway track, though it did not eliminate the need for very wide curves. The steering axles helped to distribute the gun’s weight more effectively as the carriages moved around curves. Railway Track Layout and Flexibility: For sharper turns, the axles could be adjusted to allow the carriages to follow a curving track without causing excessive strain. However, even with adjustable axles, the sheer size of the gun meant it could only be moved along tracks with large turning radii. In practice, this meant that railway lines had to be specifically constructed or altered to accommodate the gun’s size, often with much wider curves than standard tracks. Again, take this information with a grain of salt, as it may not be factual due to the use of AI, however, it seems like it could be the truth, and I'm too lazy to fact check, which is why I asked AI in the first place :P

[@soyhealth3164]

Hey there sbeev! I tried to improve the positioning system you set up. I plotted the data you had onto excel and used an approximation and it seems to fit the data pretty well. this is the resulting equation, y = -0.0001x^4 + 0.0259x^3 - 2.4577x^2 + 83.252x + 403.41 where y is distance and x is angle. Input the distance you'd like to fire and solve for the root to find the firing angle. From the coordinates you provided it seemed to work pretty well, from (3621,−4445) to (4196,−5023) for the crater i got 61 degrees as the firing angle (2 degree difference from what you had used). I'm not sure how the mod calculates the firing distance from so you might need to do more testing (from the tip of the barrel or the breach). oh and you can use the pythagorean theorem to find the distance you'd like to hit on a diagonal. Hope this helps!

[@lennwagemans9580]

There is probably more too it then this. But you can calculate the point where the bullet will hit. First remember that an object always falls at an acceleration of 9,81 m/s². Then you just measure the speed at wich it travels. (I assume that there is no wind resistance in the game) Now just use pythagoras theoorum too measure it. For example. The bullet moves at 200 blocks per second. And the point where the bullet comes out is around 10 blocks from the ground. Just use the acceleration formula. 1/2*(a*T²) + T*V + X° = X So we know that the beginning postion (X°) is 0. We also know that the beginning velocity (V) is 0, because we're only talking about falling. So that leaves us with position (X) in function of time. is equal too 1/2*(9.81*T²). We want time so end position (10 blocks) times 2, devided by 9.81 and that all squared. So you have 2 seconds of falling. So you have 400 blocks of travel.

[@_rhino1998_]

The drag model used is pretty basic and is just linear wrt velocity. A more realistic drag model would take variable air pressure at altitude into account and be related to the square of velocity. In the current model the optimal firing angle goes closer to 0 as velocity increases. Irl max range firing angles end up above 45 degrees for very large cannons due to lower drag at high altitudes due to lower air pressure.
