Ballistics, How do they work in SA?

[deus_drone 98]

So I have been searching around the forum and must be blind as I cannot find anything regarding Bullet penetration.

 

What I have found through personal  experience that the Mosin 7.62mmx39 will gladly pass through a bus Stop (I made the shot so I know it wasn't a hack)

I saw him dart behind the bus stop as I was shooting at him

So when I knew he stopped I got 1 clean shot and it passed straight through.

 

There was another instance of shooting through a car door or roofing iron or something *can't quite remember but this happened yesterday so still aware of it happening.

I shot through the car/roofing iron with the .357

 

So what else does this extend to?

 

I am positive Doors also do, Glass and other light materials.

As a lot of these kinetics and Ballistics were pulled directly from the Arma2 + Arrowhead engine (DayZ being now the more refined version)  

 

These new Modelled weapons, will have their own set of Ballistics now (however it is likely they gave it the same as the M4, AR15, M16 /any other 5.56mmx45 firing weapon)

 

Anyway, what other objects do you think I should be able to shoot through?

Look, as your question and stop rambling apologies about being a bandit. I appreciate being told about penetrable objects but it's hard to read through constant "I did this, I'm sorry, this happened, I'm sorry, this happened, I'm sorry, this happened, I'm sorry"

I stripped that out.

I took the risk for everyone and put penetration into my google box:

Not specific info for the standalone, but comes with the engine.
