About gun convergence

[Glider]

Altering the gun convergence was often done by squadrons of all airforces. As far as I am aware this was accepted and was a subject of debate then and now. The differences varied and sometimes by individual pilot.

during BOB era
the default convergence of the British guns was 250 yards.
However most veteran pilots though that was to far for them so they usually set them to 150 yards
[from spitfire ace documentery]
i switch mine to 200..is the best option to me [at least for the Bf 109 that i'm flying most]

thanks for your input. What was new to me is the practice of setting different convergence distances for different pairs of guns, giving a cone effect rather than a combined hit at the same distance. I'll do some research and see what I can find out.

If you're able to fly a 109 in such a way that you can get in close for a tight shot try reducing convergence to 100 and watch how you shred'em then

I found this:

I think it would make a nice mod if we could try both the sledgehammer and the shotgun for different targets.

IIRC these settings are already in game, no mod needed.
