I am busy building a leichte Feldhaubitze 16. I am using the direct fire sight from the ww2EC PAK 36 until now. That is without any range scale. The sight is only traversing at the moment, not elevating

I know the leFH16 was equiped with a Rundblickfernrohr 16 for laying the gun in the right direction for indirect fire. From this pdf (http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Vorschriften/lFH16.pdf ) I know that it is 4 x magnification and that the field of view is 10 degrees. I know that there is a Strichplatte in it, a glass with a graduation etched into it.

How do I get a picture of sight with a scale to represent 10 mils (strich) = 10 meters wide at 1000 meters distance. Is this dependant on the magnification? Or can I use any picture?

How can I read out the position and direction of the gun (vehicle), and elevation and traverse of the tube (turret). I know Getpos and Getdir exist, but I don't know whether it will give info about the vehicle or the turret.

Can I follow a projectile until it hits something or its time of life has passed? Can you make a range table with that?

How to represent elevation, traverse and range in the sight? Direct firing guns (PAK and KWK tank guns) should have range in the sight. Indirect firing guns on the range drum.

Is the observer logic in Liberation 41-45 the only AI directing fire.

Just point me in the direction. I am stuck at this moment. Maybe I have do one thing at a time.
