In air battles, you can set gun targeting distance in the 'Options' menu under 'Aircraft Control'. It’s usually best to match the distance where you expect to engage enemies frequently!
Hit ESC during a match, go to 'Controls', then 'Tank/Plane' settings, and adjust the 'Gun Convergence' or 'Rangefinder' to your preference. It’s all about personal playstyle!
I always set mine in the 'Options' under 'Tank Control' to around 500-700 meters for tanks. Helps me snipe better!
Honestly, default settings work just fine. But if you’re picky, go tweak it in the 'Options' menu – it’s right there under 'Controls'.
