=== Second spread formula ===
Use of an additional formula for the gun's own spread has been suggested, taking into account the role of Min. Spread and Spread. Until it's been validated and this page changed, see the "Discussion" page for details.


=== Minimum Spread ===
=== Minimum Spread ===
Line 118: Line 122:
The gun spread value used by the game engine will never be less than the "Min Spread" value specified on the [[Weapons|weapon form]] for the equipped weapon. If the value given by the formula is less than the "Min Spread" value, the value from the formula will be ignored and the "Min Spread" value for the weapon will be used instead.

Most weapons have a non zero value for "Min Spread". Therefore, no matter how skilled you are with the weapon or what perks you have, your weapon will always have a slight amount of spread. One notable exception to this are sniper rifles, which have 0 minimum spread, allowing weapon spread to be eliminated with a small guns skill of 100.
