# FAQ
### Weapons are too dangerous! One shot kills instantly
That’s how it should be: use cover.
### Someone is shooting through walls!
This is intended. Some materials are not strong enough to stop bullet completely at all firing angles.
Note that **shooting-through-walls hacks are not possible** (unlike vanilla AoS) due to the simulator architecture.
### Can I shoot through the fog?
Yes, although it’s not that easy.
### Grenade is too dangerous!
1. Don’t run in circles around grenades.
2. Take cover immediately if you see or hear a grenade.
### Bleeding is annoying
Try not to run around in front of everyone. After all, use *your shovel:* dig tunnels and trenches.
### Mines are annoying
1. Be careful.
2. Don’t go straight into areas where there are likely to be a lot of mines (e.g. intel, narrow tunnels, doors, back entrances, places convenient for sniper fire etc).
3. Deactivate mines with a greande explosion.
4. Cooperate in your team and report the location of placed mines in the team chat.
### I don’t see/hear drones
1. Unfortunately, there are protocol restrictions prohibiting any custom models.
2. In fact, this is *not that far* from reality, because modern weapons are **much more** louder than a typical drone.
3. Don’t stay outdoors for a long time (especially if you are a sniper).
### Airstrikes are too loud
Yes they are.
### Airstrikes are useless and too inaccurate
1. No they aren’t.
2. Check your minimap carefully: airstrike will follow direction of the player who called it.
### It’s too hard/realistic! It’s not fun!
Go play babel.
### It’s too unrealistic! AoS cannot be / isn’t meant to be an ARMA!
Go play ARMA + [ACE3](https://github.com/acemod/ACE3).
### ACE3 is still too unrealistic
Go to a shooting range, airsoft club or army.
(Not to mention that real war is not fun at all.)

| value | LE Float | Current speed divided by the initial speed. |
| origin | UByte | Whether this is the first packet for this identifier. |
## Hit effects
Extension ID: 0x11.
Sent whenever projectile hits a target to provide better visual response.
| Field name | Field type | Notes |
