They seem to be unrelated, i.e. a ship on my overview seems extremely 'hit-able' yet I cannot hit it.
Care to explain or point me to a link?
Thanks.

Have you heard anything I've said?
You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?
That's right.

I didn't like the change at first, but I think it's decent now. My only gripe is the pointless 'multiply by 1000' factor because tracking of 40 or 300 is apparently more aesthetically pleasing than 0.04 or 0.3, even though the latter makes it quicker to calculate/see at a glance.
Well the problem is the fact that you have to do any mathematics or mental gymnastics at all - that's ********. If they didn't like the aesthetic look of rads/s, fine, whatever I guess, but then change both the turret numbers AND the overview numbers so that they match to whatever aesthetic look they want. I mean the way they have it now is just totally ********. Use Transversal Velocity in place of the Angular column; it's easier to read at a glance, and through experience you can judge how low your target's transversal needs to be for your guns to land decent hits. The old un-normalized numbers were only valid in the specific case where the target's sig radius equaled your weapon resolution.
This plus experience will give you great results no real math necessary only thing is its a per weapon type or ship basis. At first its per ship type and then its a per weapon type of the same style mostly where lower is simply better regardless of what your doing.
