Very nice. The armor showing is also a good help.

Very cool, I love the armor value slider that displays the actual armor that matches the value.

If you can and want to, you could make it a jQuery module like the stuff my calc uses. I could then give you contributor access to the calculator repository so you could update it there. It would then make it it's way to the production calculator site. Unless you prefer having your own calculator of course.
Why not? I do not mind. But I've never worked with the repositories, I have to learn how to do it.  :oops:

Great job :)
I think it will be very helpfull for new players.

I can suggest one more thing:
Can you add option "dmg in rainy weather"?

it would be great if you make that
:)
Thank you.
And the truth is an interesting idea, though at the moment I do not know the formula. How do I know it, I'll try to implement it.

Although not really necessary, but I think I do have some suggestions. There is headshot or chestshot, but no footshot. It would be tremendous if you add them as well.
I try to do it, but later.

Also, I see there is a box that enables us to use calculator pack mathematics. What is calculator pack? When I use it, it increases damage somewhat but I couldn't understand why?
This is just another way of calculating damages.  :wink:

It helps you get an idea of how much damage you are going to deal with your build to what types of enemy.  In particular just the easy min/max # of hits against different armor and hp values is huge.

Perhaps most importantly, it helps clean up all the bullshit about archery by putting some rough numbers into the equation.

Oh no no I did not mean the whole calculator. I actually find the calculator very very very useful.
The only thing I did not get is, what use that "Calculator Pack mathematics" have? Urukghash said it is an another way of calculating the damage, but I did not get why we need two ways to calculate the damage.

My understanding is that "calculator pack damage" references to my calc and the formulas it uses. Urukghash has a better way but optionally allows the other way too.

You can make this calculator twice as good with possibility to choose loomed armors\helmets. All infantry will use your calculator to min\maxing best antiranged gear.

This is too much work, and not needed in my opinion. You can just increase the armor bars by 3 and see how it will work.
