Shouldn't that look more like this?

I think the large steps which are emerging if the calculation is done
in real-time aren't such a serious problem in a game (it would be
serious if you are writing a software for simulation purposes,
indeed).
If you fire a bullet over a distance of 100 meters, it may lose 1
meter of height till it hits the target (Rubbish? I'm not an expert on
ballistics). The player wouldn't even notice that there are only a few
gradations.
Got what I'm trying to say? :-)
