Hey guys, could anyone explain to me in layman terms how damage dealt is calculated and also what values affect remaining AP`s after being shot? Penetration values are all very similar of all ammuntion so as of now it takes 2-3 shots to the torso from 5.56 and 7.62 NATO rounds to drop a bad guy. I guess it depends on the gun itself and not the ammo? Still I find it a bit annoying that grunts take 2 shots or a 3 round burst to the chest and they keep shooting back happily. My lvl 7+ mercs get hit once and they are unable to retaliate or move or do anything really,all while wearing good body armour. Igor just got hit by an m2 carbine to the chest with full health wearing a close to 100% kevlar with ceramic plates and got knocked out for 3 rounds. I shot the shooter,a red shirt sergeant, in the head with a Steyr scout for 50% damage from less than 20 tiles away. Needless to say he crawled behind cover just to return the next round to fight. It seems as of now, assault rifles only hold advantage over smg`s by effective range.

AP_GET_WOUNDED_DIVISOR  = 1
BP_GET_HIT              = 200
BP_GET_WOUNDED          =  50

Is there any way to overhaul penetration and/or damage dealt by weapons for the next release?
