Bullet Velocity (BIG Paintball Classic)

== Overview ==
The Bullet velocity is a characteristic value of weapons that determines Projectile speed and the Penetrating Power. 
In BIG Paintball Classic each projectile has the same weight. The identical gravity values apply to all maps and to all projectiles. Therefore, the projectile Range and the Bullet Drop are determined exclusively by the speed of the bullet. 
The velocity means how fast a fired projectile (in this case a paintball) moves from the weapon towards the opponent. 
Other important characteristics of weapons are the Firerate and the weight of the weapon (affects in Movement Speed of the player). For sniping the Zoom is also relevant. 
== Ranking list ==
The purchasable weapons with the highest velocity are Sniper:
# Elite Sniper and Summer Sniper (1,000).
# High Tech Sniper (925)
# Shattered Sniper (900)
# Anime Sniper and Shattered Winter Sniper (850)
# Royale Sniper (825)
Even the Dark Matter Gun, which is otherwise superior in many other stats, only achieves about half (450).
== Test Method ==
# You need a shooter and a player who can record the trajectory.
#Use a map (Private Server) that is easy to see and has well-defined distances.
# Calculate the distances between the points by already known sizes. ...e.g. derive by fixed environment sizes (e.g. player size or elements that can be used freely). If the trajectory is e.g. 10% longer than the direct path, then this 10% will later be subtracted from the frame amount. Long distances are more accurate, but if the target cannot be reached at all, then reduce the distance and compare it with a weapon whose values are already known.
# Unlock FPS and record with high framerate, at least 120fps
# Record at least 10-15 shots. Average the results, as the visual representation varies in some cases.
#Process the recording frame by frame and count.... if it is between two values, repeat the number of measurements, increase the FPS or estimate a comma value.
#The number of frames is only valid for a specific distance. It is only a tool to calculate the comparison speeds.
== Penetrating Power ==
Bullet Velocity means not only the pure speed, but also penetrating power.

* Sometimes the values are still adjusted in the course of development. For example, the Glass Scar had a value of 300 in the Pre-Release version and 275 later when it was accidentally released in the main game.
