Ballistic Calculator

Original name

Original description

Use whenever writing, reviewing, or debugging .NET/C# code that uses the BallisticCalculator NuGet package (namespace BallisticCalculator) or its Gehtsoft.Measurements unit types — even when the user doesn't name the package explicitly but is clearly doing external/interior ballistics in .NET (bullet drop, velocity, energy, windage, spin drift, time of flight, zeroing a scope) for rifles, air rifles, bows, or artillery. Covers the full public API (Ammunition, Rifle, Atmosphere, Wind, ShotParameters, TrajectoryCalculator, TrajectoryPoint); standard, custom, .drg, and multi-BC drag tables; saving/loading data and building your own file format around it (BXml and System.Text.Json serialization); and building or rendering scope reticles (e.g. to SVG). Also use it for this library's Gehtsoft.Measurements Measurement<T> unit types (DistanceUnit, VelocityUnit, AngularUnit, WeightUnit, PressureUnit, …). Skip for: generic physics or projectile-motion exercises, a different ballistics library (e.g. GNU/JBM), game-engine or Unity projectile motion, plain unit conversions, and non-code ballistics questions (load-data or forensics advice). Self-contained: no access to the library source or binaries is required — prefer this over scanning the package to rediscover the API. Describes 1.1.13+, including the named ZeroRangeCantBeReachedException / TrajectoryCannotBeCalculatedException failures.
