    The AK-102 (like the entire 100-series) is basically an export version, which is why it has such an unusual caliber for the Soviet school. This version was intended for export to countries where 5.56 ammunition is more readily available than 5.45 or 7.62. In addition to the shortened 102 version, there were also 101 with standard barrel and 108 with balanced automatic rifle using 5.56. They can be identified by the even straighter magazine than the AK-74.

    This RP needs a separate space(like a discord server), a good DM and some experienced players. Then maybe it could be a pretty good thing. Right now it's simply impossible to manage because of the very format of RP on the forums.

  • Okay, honestly, what IS KE? 20 days ago

    I apologize for the wall of text.

  • Okay, honestly, what IS KE? 20 days ago

    It will be especially difficult if you do not have at least 2-3 experienced players (2-3+ years of experience) who can “pull” most of the adequate actions and will serve as models for beginners.

    In general, novice players play very poorly, make a huge number of illogical actions, but at the same time are confident that they know the game better than anyone else and the best way to play it.

    Without a backbone of good players who, albeit in a rather painful way (on RP), but direct the player in the direction of learning, it will turn out (as it is called in my environment) “Lobster Farm”, in which a bunch of inexperienced players arrange only game degradation, creating a lot of illogical game, considering themselves the bearers of truth, but not developing in the game.

  • Okay, honestly, what IS KE? 20 days ago

    In fact, any reasonably well-designed RP is difficult to manage, as many nuances emerge. To do this, you need to have at least some experience as an RP player, the more the better.

  • Okay, honestly, what IS KE? 20 days ago

    Because of this, it has become a poorly controlled chaos.

    In a good way, RP needs a separate space, a set of judges/moderators represented by at least one person, and at least some set of rules by which players can somehow determine the outcome of a conflict of interest.

  • Okay, honestly, what IS KE? 20 days ago

    Decentralized non-separate trust-based RP.

    Literally the kind of RP that can only be conducted between very close friends, but is conducted by barely familiar people on a forum.

    In fact, Swedish air defense is very sparse compared to the same Soviet air defense, where you can open a list of all the complexes and drown in GRAU ciphers.

  • Is mine the only Swedish AA in the site 26 days ago

    The main problem is that Sweden actually has very few of its own SPAA and SAMs. And even less known to the general public. That's why there are so few of them (literally 1 of yours).

  • Investigation of prop engine behavior 3 months ago

    All tests were conducted with automatic propeller pitch control.

    It would be interesting to see how the behavior of the engine would change with the use of manual control.

    I have a lot of unpublished builds piled up, and some users have expressed interest in me posting them.

    They are mostly abandoned/‘Forever WIP’/low detailed builds, so don't expect high quality.

    Some of the builds were used for RP, so it has ‘Standardised Orthogonal’ as a thumbnail

  • Damage received = Action made 10 months ago

    Similarly with other parts that can change their condition when damaged.

  • Damage received = Action made 10 months ago

    If the engine takes damage - its thrust is reduced. So you can compare its nominal and real thrust and if they are different, use that as an input.

  • Simple Ballistics. How to calculate projectile impact distance. 1.2 years ago

    @Mk1Els At the end of the post are ready-made templates for use in the variable editor. Insert some necessary numbers and place these expressions in the editor.

  • Muzzle velocity, muzzle angle, distance. 1.2 years ago

    This can be calculated because the projectiles in the SP are not affected by air resistance, they fly according to a quite simple formula. First, use the sine of the angle of elevation and muzzle velocity to determine when the projectile will be at target altitude after firing, then calculate the time, and multiply the cosine of the angle of elevation by the muzzle velocity to get the distance. This is hard to describe in text, a physics textbook will help you.

    This is probably due to bugs in the physics update. Due to the fact that this happens to many players, I have updated the XML file to give weapons a longer time to activation so that they have time to move away from the airplane to a safe distance.

    The landing instructions are a little incorrect.
