CoH Stats v2

I always had the assumption that side armor was lower than front armor for most of the tanks. Of course not as weak as rear armor. I even think that there was some official statement where that was mentioned although I could be wrong.
The data mentions only Main Armor and Rear Armor now.
Does this mean:
A) There is no difference between a shot to the front and a shot to the side?
B) Armor is the same but there are some other differences?
Example would be lower profile from front, meaning better chance to hit from the side?
C) There is a difference but it is not in game data.

One question:
I always had the assumption that side armor was lower than front armor for most of the tanks. Of course not as weak as rear armor. I even think that there was some official statement where that was mentioned although I could be wrong.
The data mentions only Main Armor and Rear Armor now.

B) Armor is the same but there are some other differences?

C) There is a difference but it is not in game data.
If the system is the same as with CoH1, which I believe it is, then there are only two armor values. Front and Rear armor. The cut of point is usally designated at around half the unit, so shooting from the side can sometimes score a 'rear armor hit'. Which is obviously beneficial.
In CoH1 there used to be Penetration depending on the range of the target, but in CoH2 this has been taken away. So no matter how close or how far your unit is it will always deal the same penetration (do keep in mind that accuracy suffers though).
As according do your statement in B). The Essence Engine calculates the hit box literally as a Box. So it doesn't matter what the tank actually looks like. The projectile will always hit a box proxy.

second part:
As according do your statement in B). The Essence Engine calculates the hit box literally as a Box. So it doesn't matter what the tank actually looks like. The projectile will always hit a box proxy.
I think I understand the concept of Hit Boxes. This basically means that the exact shape of the tank has no influence. But what could be the case is that hit Boxes have different sizes and different angles of hitting the hit box would mean greater % chance to hit.
In this example A could be an Pz4 while B would be a tiger tank. C is just an example that the actual polygones of the 3D model are not calculated for firing mechanics (would be way to ressource demanding).
But the Hit boxes could have different sizes, so the Tiger tank is easier to hit. The target size in your data sheets would then measure the actual size of the hit box.
And as shown in Example D the hit Box positioning could make a difference.
Unless of course to Hit calculations are completely seperate from the 3D engine only checking for cover and placing an additional variable in the ToHitChance calculation.

@CyberianK yes you are exactly right. The hit box is only important for scatter shots. So with a massive vehicle such as the tiger, even with a missed shot and scatter there is a chance that the stray shot may hit part of the Tiger's hitbox and score a hit.

Note, not a single unit has anything for vet1, which is really strange but that is how it is ingame.
Check out the updates!

Veterancy is now online!

Thats because LVL1 always gives the new ability and LVLs 2-3 give stats. Maybe you could link the ability the units get there. MFor most axis infantry for example it is the "mark target" ability.

Ah, there is no mention of it in the upgrade, so I guess its a requirement of the ability. Yes I know I will try to link it, but I can just imagine coding these abilities and upgrades to be a clusterfuck

Furthermore I would like to thank Simika from GameReplays.org for pointing out that the accuracy for weapons was loading incorrectly, so this has now been fixed. There has also been the inclusion of "Non Moving Setup = true/false" to the weapon files. So now you can check if the weapon can be fired on the move.
Starting to shift over from using .xml files for loading content to .json files, with the help of the user roflmao over at RelicNews forums. What this means for you is faster loading times! Yet this will probably take a while to complete.

SU-85 veterancy is not shown on the website, you think you can implement it?
There are a couple of units that need custom coding since they have an irregular template. I hope to eliminate this with the use of the JSON template instead.
There are a few others that also have issues such as the KV8, sdkfz_222, and some of the trucks.
UPDATE:
For me the SU-85 veterancy shows, maybe clear your cache?
Also I have put in placeholder images for the abilities and upgrades.

I have rewritten the way that stats are loaded to a unified way so that there will not be inconsistencies with the stats, as you may have noticed some units may have had some elements missing. I have also changed the way that the weapon stats are loaded so that the full list is loaded and any empty hardpoints/weapons are removed from the list. You will notice some vehicles have more than 4 weapons to their disposal. I will be working towards adding some game mechanics next.

They both receive 0.5x Received Accuracy modifiers, but in the Soviet Infantry pages on the website I believe it's displaying the Capture_enable_squad_modifier which is a -1 value.
There's no difference in Retreat bonuses from what I can see.

That field is grabbing info from the wrong line I believe

Taken from the files from the last Closed Beta patch, it might have changed but I doubt it
