about small arms fire

Sorry if I missed it in an earlier post, but are other values like penetration also linear and does this apply to most weapons in the game (including infantry weapons)? I always kinda assumed they were just thresholds where if you were a meter over, then it’d apply the lesser value.

progressing from one stage to another in a single series of steps; sequential.

Still don't get it. "linear" as taken from Google

If that's correct than that means accuracy, penetration etc stats change after they cross their thresholds.

If that is actually NOT what is intended, than I believe the word meaning here is "dynamic".

If the penetration value goes 50% between mid and far when you're 50% between mid and far ranges, that is dynamic. If it remains at far till your cross the mid threshold, I'd say that is sequential.

What vipper and loopdloop already said. I dont think anyone would use the term dynamic for this kind of graph/function/relationship, and I'm pretty sure if you tried to describe a non-constant linear function as dynamic in an academic setting, people would look at you weird.

Edit: beating you over the head with this

Shouldn't you be beating me over the head with snipers?
