Detailed Description

DtBallisticGunDescriptor; a descriptor for the DtBallisticGun component.

A DtComponentDescriptor that has additional information needed for providing parameters to the ballistic gun model – hit probabilities, muzzle offset, and muzzle velocity.

The muzzleSpeed() and setMuzzleSpeed() member functions are used for the muzzle velocity specified in VR-Link fire interactions.
