The targeting should be more accurate. I have have dead on targeting and I still miss target from 200k away.Please fix this bug

It's not really a bug. It's more of a side-effect.
We quantize the data going over the network, so far awau the values become less accurate.

I'm not sure what you mean by 200k away. No weapons can shoot 200km away, not to mention objects don't get rendered when they are 200km away.

If you mean 200m away, then yes, you should be able to hit pretty well, even with quantized data.

200 is pretty close range. Please be sure that you are attending to the target recticle, rather than aiming at the target itself.

The recticle estimates the direction and speed of the target and assists you with aiming by turning YELLOW when you have correctly led the target and may fire with the best chance of hitting.

Many people make the mistake of firing on red, or centering on a moving target who is no longer there when the ions (or whatever) get there.
