*'''Supersonic:''' - If checked, the sound emanates from the point of the projectile's path closest to the listener (Think bullets whizzing by your head). If unchecked, the sound emmiter follows the projectile around until it is destroyed (Think rockets flying through the air). | *'''Supersonic:''' - If checked, the sound emanates from the point of the projectile's path closest to the listener (Think bullets whizzing by your head).

* If '''Gravity''' is non-zero and '''Hitscan''' is false, the 3D projectile will be simulated in game at all times, rather than just in VATS. | |||
* Regardless of the '''Hitscan''' setting, full ballistic flight modelling is always performed in VATS. | |||
