  • Switched shot movement to incremental motion using Runge-Kutta method for fidelity
  • Added ability for AI gunners to use new FCS when aiming
  • Changed penetration model to more correctly relate to projectile energy
  • Changed armor values on NATO triple heavy targets in firing range
  • Ammo performance is now affected by propellant temperature
