    How often on average - shooting arrows into 2 targets

    Since in this case each arrow deals only half the damage. 9 arrows deal the same amount of damage as 4.5 arrows in any scenario where there is no reduced damage per arrow. If I read this correctly you are saying that if there is a 1/3 chance to pass through and infinite line of enemies each...

    How often on average - shooting arrows into 2 targets

    its an aRPG, so not a tabletop no. the 3 and 9 arrows are fired in the same timeframe. So the damage per cast directly translates to similar dps. Assume that the reduction is not meaningless and you need at least the full damage equivalent of 1 arrow to kill a monster. While it is correct that...

    How often on average - shooting arrows into 2 targets

    in reply to Stephen Tashi: Yes I ment, that each arrow has its own individual chance to pierce a target. For simplicity sake, let's assume they always hit a target. The damage for the 9 arrows seems quite obvious to me, that is just 4.5 times the damage of a base arrow For option A...

    How often on average - shooting arrows into 2 targets

    how often on average -- shooting arrows into 2 targets Hello, I was playing a game the other day as an archer. There were two possible setups and ever since i have been trying to decide which one is going to be the best. So here goes. option A: You fire 3 arrows, they have a chance x to...

    Recursive model for body in fluid

    I made my calculations for a ring. So surface fri tion is much smaller than the drag. I will try to rewrite my ode s as coupled first order equations as soon as I get some free time.

    Recursive model for body in fluid

    So for the off-center forces: // calculate all moments due to forces that apply on the body (drag, external, gravity = 0 due to symmetry) Fd= 0.5*A*Cd*ρ*ωn-12 Mdrag = Fd*r where r = radius of the object(assuming the object is symmetrical) Mext = Fext*x where x is the distance to to centre of...

    Recursive model for body in fluid

    My dynamics are not what they ought to be. Could you provide an example calculation for the torque and the angular motion equations? Is there a numerical method for ODE s that I can readily apply or if not, is there free literature I can read up in? Thanks for the help, much appreciated.

    Recursive model for body in fluid

    Good evening, I've been trying to wrap my head around this problem for some time and I just can't seem to get it straight. What I am trying to achieve: I want to program a recursive model that calculates the position of a moving body in a fluid after a certain time. What i have done...
