Incorrect APCR To-Kill nbrs?

Unfortunately, I didn't save the game until after the event, but I had a situation with a GE 251/1 halftrack firing a 37L against an armoured target (KV1!). When I used the middle mouse button to check on percentage chances of a kill, it stated that regular AP ammo had an 8% chance of inflicting a kill, but that the APCR had a zero, none!

That surely can't be correct, since the whole point of APCR (and APDS like it) is that it had better penetration abilities, and therefore a higher chance of kill(?)

I've checked this rmmwilg and the numbers are correct. What you didn't see for the AP round was that it was a minus propability, -8,3%.

Minus! Oh wow, lol. Ok, thanks [:D]

New feature request: any such minus value, should just default to zero please
