God? I need a new Weps. My Weps juggles a little cup of bird bones then spills them out on the table.

That said, if I have a valid solution from Weps, an accurate gyro angle, accurate range, tube open on the side wouldn't shooting from an angle be pretty reliable? Or is some sort of "uncertainty" modeled into higher gyro angles.

This is not an urgent question; it's just a nuance of the game I am interested in.
