How to calculate elevation in IRON NEST
The official Steam description makes the ballistic calculator, propellant charges, and elevation part of one connected firing workflow. Measure the target correctly, use the intended charge count in the calculation, and set the resulting elevation instead of substituting a real-world artillery formula or an old value from another setup.
- Confirm the target location and range.
- Select the powder-charge count you actually intend to load.
- Use the in-game ballistic calculator for the current setup.
- Set the calculated elevation and verify the loaded charge count before firing.
Recalculate after changing powder charges
Range, charge count, and elevation are linked. If you add or remove the intended number of charges before loading, run the calculation again. If the gun is already loaded with the wrong amount, follow the developer guidance for the loaded-gun situation rather than assuming the load can be removed.
Do not use guessed firing-table numbers
A saved firing table can be useful only when its values were tested against the current game build. For a live solution, use current in-game data or the site's dedicated calculator and leave unverified ranges unavailable.
