lead indicator is wrong.

I noticed something the other day, with any ship/weapon layout if you sit still, zoom into your lead indicator, and fire, youll notice that your weapons actually fire a bit left of your indicator.

There was a big thread about this in alpha. Something to do with the way positions were calculated, etc, plus the natural spread of weapons.

I think the eventual resolution was that it wasn't that big of a deal :P

Speaking of which, is the autoaim indicator wrong now that a lot of the velocities have changed. I notice that the GT, with its original velocity, still hits consistantly, but AAP's dont hit if approaching the target from certain angles (Anything more than about 30degrees from aft). I think I remember them being more accurate when they were slower. I could also be imagining it.
