It bloody works. I'm crying. It took me a good 3 hours to get it to work, but here it is. All that was wrong was just one letter... reminds me of when I was learning code. Anyway, do as you will with my work here:
Although I will point out a few things- this assumes that the rotator is completely horizontally stable, and also that there is no left-right deviation. You have to be flying in a completely straight line for this to work. That isn't too much of a problem with the new autopiloting mechanisms we can make, though!
Here's a demo of the bombsight.
is there some way to delay when an input is activated through the use of funky tree commands.?
Example - a rotator with input=Activate1 and min-max=0,1. Activating group no.1 will move this rotator after a set amount of seconds.
@WarHawk95 i've got a couple more bombsights, check out my he111 or lancaster tall boy
Wow I am totally upvoting that mathematical equation which only a real math nerd could handle. TWO HUGE THUMBS UP.
But, seriously... I hate your brain ;)
So do I just copy this into the Dev Tab.... <noobing it here>
Also So much work, my brain exploded! GG!
I play Simpleplanes when I get headache from my physics homework

I get even more headache now

Weapons Guidance is realistically impossible with mere inputs... At least with what we have now.
Remember @WeaverFish and his B-17's bombsight ?
Well, I think we've found its true successor.

I haven't considered it too much- I believe TAS might be more accurate, if I can manage the time today I'll go and test it to see which performs better.
@SnoWFLakE0s would IAS be accurate in this instance at high altitude? During my testing at 7km with one of my planes, IAS was only around 250kmh when TAS showed 630 or sokKmh

Applaud my supreme power!
You madman, and here I was needing a butt ton of outside help to route both trim and pitch to one rotator and to model control compress-ability.

If you've read my work at all, you'll understand that
This system is not for guiding bombs, but for estimating where the bomb will hit. Although, I am fairly sure you'll be able to make guided bombs if you really try.
I was too tired to read it all but well done!
Hey so is it possible to make guided bombs with this ???
@Thelegitpilot13

Sure, I'll release the input statement code once I release it as a build!
You’ve done it, you’ve finally done it! Fantastic work! Can you put it at the bottom so we can copy it into our builds?

Yeah this is extremely hard to do I don’t think anybody else even thought about this@Minecraftpoweer
Nice work! I would love to see you make a computerized gunsight.
@SnoWFLakE0s I was just doing my maths homework. Now that I see THIS it doesn't seem to be as hard as I though 5 minutes ago...
Woah
@Minecraftpoweer

Gah, it's nothing beyond a basic HS physics course. The hard part was typing everything right and not forgetting things.
I understand why you would be crying
