Gatling /Auto Cannon Convergence

I wish I had come up with this before your big Warfare 3 release was on the horizon, but here we go. I was using AI to help me with fighter designs. It was under the mistaken impression that the gatling guns had a feature where one could adjust their convergence so they would meet at a specific distance in front of the fighter. I thought it meant putting them on hinges at first, and I tested it. I did the math and set the hinges to 0.2865 degrees so they converged at 400 meters in front of the fighter, and it worked. Apparently WWII aircraft had adjustable convergence that the mechanics could set them to based on the pilot's preferences. And since this is mainly for dogfighting, it could just be the gatling guns and autocannons that could offer this feature. They wouldn't angle much, only a couple of degrees, for very close convergence. All that would be needed is to set how many blocks the weapon is mounted from the centerline of the craft, enter where the desired convergence is, then run the formula in the background.
