Jagged Alliance 3 has kept certain realistic elements in its combat style, such as not being able to see your exact chance to hit an enemy when aiming at specific body parts.

While hitting the Legs or Torso is significantly easier than the head, the game doesn’t reveal the exact chance of hitting each part.

ShowChanceToHit will show players the exact chance percentage of hitting an enemy’s body parts and make it easier to decide which part to aim for.
