artillery, yes another, simple multi player targeting


i know, i know, i know. I've read through quite a few threads on it already, from what i gathered there will be no manned artty, but, if there ever is. I ask of 2 simple things to implement with it so that multiple players can all fire on the same area.


HUD compass - simple, have a compass with 360° markers, that way each vehicle can fire at the same bearing and shells will land relatively in the same area.

Firing Angle - simple yet again, but it must NOT be effected by the pitch of the vehicle(surface its sitting on), it must be fixed like a compass points north. In real life they do this with gyroscopes i believe.

With these two thing it shouldn't be hard for a group of arty to effectively lay down fire in the same area, assuming they are all firing relatively from the same location.
