Title: I could have swore I saw a chart of chance to hit based on accuracy and distance
Post by: rekenne on December 21, 2008, 18:26

But I can't find it on the wiki. Does anyone know where I could find it?

... Also, is there one for the rate at which shotguns lose damage? >_>

I'm pretty sure it's 5 points of damage per space away.

I'm pretty sure it's not, because shotguns aren't useless past melee range. That, and I know the Combat shotty decays less badly and the SSG decays more badly than the shotgun. It's likely based exponentially.

It might be 5% over a space.  And I'm fairly sure the reason that Combat Shotties seem to decay less is because they have a tighter spread, but that's my humble opinion.

That was post of Malek, and and it had an attachment of shotguns chart. Type in "search" something like that.

Aha!
Thank you. This chart is pure, pure sexiness.

Might wanna put up a link to it here, maybe make it a sticky for the chart.

Shotguns

Damage := Max( Roll * (1.0 - Reduce * Max( 1, DistanceToTarget )), 1 );

Reduce values for common shotguns:
Normal 0.07
Double 0.1
Assault 0.05

ToHit:

ToHit := Item.ToHit;
if target is running then Decrement ToHit by 4
if (SpecialRoll( 10 + toHit - (distanceToTarget div 3 ) + iToHit) >= 0) then Target is hit.

Special Roll is :
function Roll( Value );
begin
  DieRoll := Dice(3,6);
  case DieRoll of
      3 : Exit(30);
      4 : Exit(20);
     17 : Exit(-20);
     18 : Exit(-30);
  end;
  Roll := Value - DieRoll;
end;

Yeah, simple ;]

Hey, what do you know, I wasn't too far off with my 5% estimate. :D
