About ProjectILE

projectILE is my first complete C++ project, now with some adjustments i release it here, mainly for archiving purposes. Licensed under "Do What The Fuck You Want To" license.

Special thanks to Richard Sepsi for Unageo font and Universfiled for button click sound.

ProjectILE is a trajectory calculator

ProjectILE comes with 2 calculators, artificial shot and launch angle calculator.

1 - Artificial shot basically let you make a shot and give the results about projectile, like: how far it landed, how much time it spend on air, maximum altitude it reached.

2- In launch angle calculator, you don't have the variable "launch angle". You give the information about how far you want your projectile to land and the system tries all angles one by one and give you two results(low and high angles)to make projectile reach the target.

Effects/forces calculated:

Projectile:

Weight, diameter, launch angle, muzzle velocity, drag coefficient (aerodynamic)

Environment:

Existence of air, Air pressure, air temperature, gravitational acceleration, gas constant in the air.

Bugs and problems

1 - You only get error if your first calculation is impossible, otherwise. The program doesn't give any errors, but also don't change the previous results.

2 - Memory clean up issue: the program don't have memory leak, but it doesn't clear resource it used before, it works like this:

program starts with 50mb ram usage, then goes up to 70mb after some time and stays like that, do not worry, it won't multiply, just reaches to a climax and stay there.

Updates:

3-NOVEM-2025: Initial Release

17-NOVEM-2025: Major code fix and compatibility update, actually tested in a Windows environment.

@LATEST 21-MARCH-2025: Better cleanup at exit, removal of paid-public versions, creating one single "united" file. Also the last update for the program.
