; Jagged Alliance 2 v1.13: New CTH System and Shooting Mechanism
;******************************************************************************************************************************

; These settings control the various parts of the new CTH and Shooting systems. 
; Most of these settings are used as multipliers for the various factors that
; control CTH calculation and shooting accuracy.
;
; By raising or lowering a setting, you can influence the importance of a factor, 
; for example how Marksmanship affects the total Base CTH you can have, or how
; bad it is to have wounds when trying to fire a gun.
;
; Other settings control the system more abstractly. For instance, you can control
; how hard it is to shoot moving targets, or the maximum possible deviation
; (inaccuracy) generated by guns.
;
; Each setting is accompanied by an explanation if possible. Make sure you know
; what the setting does, and how high or low you can set the value, before
; making any changes.
; Also please note that some values are FLOATS, meaning they need a decimal
; point behind them, even if that decimal point is followed by a 0. Other
; values are INTEGERS, and do not accept a decimal point at all.
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


[General]

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; These settings control the shooting mechanism as a whole. In other words,
; changing these settings will affect every shooter under any conditions.
; You can use these settings to make shooting more or less accurate as you
; see fit.
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

; This setting represents the longest distance at which Iron Sights are 100% effective.
; Beyond this range, shooting accuracy begins to drop, and a scope will be required
; to avoid that drop.
; ALL SCOPE RANGES ARE DETERMINED BY THIS VALUE. For instance, a 2x scope will
; negate penalties for shooting at twice this distance. A 10x scope will 
; negate penalties for shooting at ten times this distance.
; By decreasing this value, you can make all shots more accurate, and naturally
; make scopes more powerful.
; This value is an INTEGER, with a range of 10 to 1000. The distance is
; measured in METERS, not tiles, so 100 means 10 tiles.
NORMAL_SHOOTING_DISTANCE = 70

; This is the maximum angle, to either side of the shooter, that a bullet may fly.
; The CTH system works by shooting bullets randomly inside this angle. Increasing
; your aim will make the angle smaller, thus making rounds more likely to hit the
; target.
;
; This value is a FLOAT, with a range of 0 to 22.5. If set to 0, all shots will
; be 100% on target, regardless of aiming.
; Decreasing this value causes all shots to be more accurate. 
DEGREES_MAXIMUM_APERTURE = 15

; The Range Coefficient works with the listed weapon range to determine the weapons
; maximum range.  Once a bullet reaches it's maximum range, gravity pulls it towards
; the ground.
RANGE_COEFFICIENT = 1.1

; The Gravity Coefficient determines how powerful gravity is once it kicks into
; action - this happens when the bullet reaches the "maximum range" of the gun
; that fired it.
; The lower this coefficient, the faster will bullets change their trajectory
; towards the ground, hitting it sooner.
; Conversely, by increasing this value you can let bullets fly further beyond
; the max range of the gun. That will effectivelly let guns hit targets further
; beyond their max range, though it is not a reliable way to hit any target.
GRAVITY_COEFFICIENT = 4.0

; The Vertical Bias "flattens" the target appeture which restricts the vertical amoun
; by which a bullet can travel.  Vertical bias is ultimately based on stance where
; a standing shooter is always at 1.0, a prone shooter is at the indicated bias, and
; a crouching target is midway between the two.
VERTICAL_BIAS = 0.5

; The Scope Range Multiplier is applied against a scopes magnification to determine
; the scopes minimum effective range.  Sniper and Hunter training has a slight effect
; on this.  Valid range is 0.5 - 1.5, with a default of 0.7.  The higher you set
; this multiplier, the less effective scopes become.
SCOPE_RANGE_MULTIPLIER = 1.0

; The Side Facing Divisor is applied against the shooting offsets when a target is
; facing directly perpendicular (i.e., East or West when shooter faces North or South)
; to the shooter.  This is to account for a visual error in the NCTH system.  The
; Valid range for this divisor is 1.0 - 10.0.  If you don't think it should be as easy
; to hit a target from the side as from head on, just set this value to 1.0
SIDE_FACING_DIVISOR = 2.0

; This is the basic chance PER SHOT to lose 1 point of weapon condition with each
; bullet fired. The formula for this chance is 1 in BASE_DEPRECIATE_CHANCE, so higher
; values result in slower degradation.
;  The default value for OCTH is 15, but NCTH requires a **much** higher
; expenditure of bullets, resulting in severely-reduced weapon condition after every
; battle. Therefore, the default for NCTH is currently 150.
; Valid range is 0-10000.
BASIC_RELIABILITY_ODDS = 45


[Base CTH]

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Base CTH is an amount of CTH given freely to the shooter for any shot he makes.
; The basic value is determined by skills, and later the modifiers reduce or
; increase it appropriately. Characters with low skills, or with bad factors
; affecting their performance, will receive bad base CTH.
; The maximum amount of Base CTH you can have is 33 points. This is only
; achievable by super-mercs in excellent conditions.

; These settings determine the importance of each character skill in calculating
; your Base CTH. By default, Experience is 3 times more important than the other
; skills. Base CTH, before modifiers, is equal to the sum of the player's skills,
; each multiplied by the appropriate value from these, and then divided by the
; sum of all these four values.
;
; These values are FLOATS, with a range of 0.0 to 10.0. Setting a value to 0
; will render the appropriate skill irrelevant for calculating base CTH. DO NOT
; set all four values to 0, unless you want to see lots of crashes.
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BASE_EXP = 3.0
BASE_MARKS = 1.0
BASE_WIS = 1.0
BASE_DEX = 1.0

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; These settings control the effect that various factors have on the shooter's
; Base CTH. By increasing a value, you can increase that factor's importance
; on raising or lowering Base CTH.
;
; These values are all FLOATS, with ranges of -1000.0 to 1000.0. Pay close attention
; to the positive/negative and read the explanations carefully. Some factors are
; better when HIGHER, others better when LOWER.
;
; After calculating Base CTH from skills (see above), the factors governing it
; (below) are all pooled together into one penalty value. That penalty value is
; then used as a percentage to increase or decrease your Base CTH. In other words,
; if all factors amount to -50.0, you'll lose half your Base CTH. If they amount
; to 20.0, you'll gain 20% extra base CTH.
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

; This is a modifier given per each morale point below 50.
BASE_LOW_MORALE = -1.0

; This modifier is given per each morale point above 50.
BASE_HIGH_MORALE = 2.0

; This modifier is given to any character with the "PSYCHO" trait.
BASE_PSYCHO = -3.0

; This is the modifier given when shooting one "cube" upwards. A cube is
; 1/3 of a tile high. This takes into account both stance and level. For
; example, a standing merc shooting at the legs of a target on the roof 
; gets 1*this modifier. A prone merc on ground level shooting at the 
; head of a target on ground level gets 2*this modifier.
;
; The shooting upwards modifier is then divided by the range to the target
; (in tiles). In other words, at a range of 2 tiles the modifier is
; HALVED. at a range of 10 tiles, the modifier is divided by 10. Etcetera.
; This means that the further the target is, the less relevant the upwards
; angle is.
BASE_SHOOTING_UPWARDS = -15.0

; This is the MAXIMUM modifier given to a shooter when injured. To get this
; much, the shooter must be dead (0% health...). It's linear,
; so at 50% health the shooter gets exactly half the penalty.
; Note that "Bandaged" damage counts as half as much as bleeding damage.
; Therefore, 50% bandaged damage is as bad as only25% bleeding damage.
BASE_INJURY = -30.0

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; These are the modifiers given for different levels of drunkness. Naturally,
; the more drunk you are, the more your CTH suffers.
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BASE_DRUNK_TIPSY = -5.0
BASE_DRUNK = -20.0
BASE_DRUNK_WASTED = -50.0
BASE_DRUNK_HUNGOVER = -10.0

; This is the MAXIMUM modifier given to a shooter when fully fatigued (0% breath).
; It's linear, so at 50% breath you get half the modifier.
BASE_FATIGUE = -15.0

; This modifier is applied when shooting at the same target again. If the target
; has moved between shots, or the shooter does anything but shoot at the target,
; the modifier is lost.
BASE_SAME_TARGET = 5.0

; This is the modifier given when the shooter is in a cloud of gas and does
; not have a gas mask on.
BASE_GASSED = -15.0

; This modifier is applied when the shooter is being bandaged by someone else.
BASE_BEING_BANDAGED = -5.0

; This is the MAXIMUM modifier given when the target reaches the maximum number
; of Suppression Shock points, which by default would be 30. It's linear, so at
; 15 shock points you get half the penalty.
; Note that characters with high experience stop accumulating shock much earlier,
; and so are much less subject to this modifier than other characters.
BASE_SHOCK = -150.0

; This modifier is applied if the target has exceptional agility or experience level.
BASE_AGILE_TARGET = -5.0

; This modifier is applied if the shooter can't see the target. This happens
; when shooting at a target spotted by someone else.
BASE_TARGET_INVISIBLE = -100.0

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; These modifiers work very differently from the others. The are related to a
; concept called Gun Handling, which is still being adjusted. Basically,
; Gun Handling is equal to the AP Cost to Ready the gun. Heavier, more
; cumbersome guns like sniper rifles or machine guns get a high Gun Handling
; value, and thus decrease Base CTH proportionally. Pistols, on the other hand,
; have very low Gun Handling values.
; 
; BASE_DRAW_COST is applied per each Gun Handling point.
;
; The other values act as multipliers applied directly to the Gun Handling
; value. For example, by default a pistol fired with one hand (other hand
; full or holding another pistol) gets its Gun Handling value doubled.
;
; Please note that all of these except BASE_DRAW_COST should be POSITIVE.
; The higher they are, the greater their effect.

[Aiming CTH]

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Aiming CTH is the amount of CTH you get for adding extra aiming to your
; shot, by paying extra APs.
;
; First, the game calculates the maximum CTH our shooter can have, using
; the shooter's skills as a guide. This is called the CTH cap, and the shooter
; can NEVER have more CTH than this cap, ever.
; 
; The program then subtracts the Base CTH value from the CTH Cap, coming up
; with a number called the Maximum Aiming Bonus. At peak condition, and with
; the maximum number of aiming levels applied, the shooter will reach his
; CTH Cap, meaning he will be as accurate as he can be.
;
; Note that for each AP you spend on aiming, you only get PART of the Maximum
; Aiming Bonus. In fact, you get 8/36 of it for the first AP, 7/36 for the
; second AP, 6/36 for the third, and so forth. The last AP gives only 1/36
; of the total bonus, but that little bit can sometimes be crucial.
