You can't.  The damage values for railgun are randomly generated on a curve between the minimum and maximum damage values that is skewed toward the center.  The average damage for rail m4 is 1200, and Railgun will almost always two-shot a equal modification light hull, 3 shot a medium, and usually 4-shot a heavy, although sometimes it will kill in less or more shots.  There is no specific place you have to hit on the enemy tank that increases your damage.

It depends if the enemy had double armor will be less damage, if you have a double damage will reach maximum damage.

If you have double damage it will obviously exceed the maximum damage.

Where you shoot the enemy doesn't matter. The only things which affect damage are distance, penetrative shots and double power supplies.

 

Also remember that Railgun operates on a variable damage graph which means damage can vary even if the distance doesn't.

well.. on my observation...against wasp... hit its ass... a gray or black cyllinder type for max damage...for hornet, hit its ass say thing but to the lowest.... or shoot from above... must penetrate through the turret's mid.

If you have double damage it will obviously exceed the maximum damage.

unless you get the minimum damage which will probably be slightly less than max if you have double damage :p

Most of what you needed to know has been said above, but just to recap:

• Railgun's damage has a very large range and the value is chosen at random (a detailed explanation of how it works can be found here)
• In this game it doesn't matter where you hit the enemy tank. Your shot can just slightly touch the enemy tank's corner and still deal maximum damage
• Check the Railgun protection that your opponent has. When you are playing with Railgun and you see a number next to a player's nickname (example here) - it means that they have a protective module that reduces the damage dealt by Railgun. You can also press and hold R or V to check the details of their module (example here), as well as the turret and hull they have equipped.
• When you buy M2 Railgun, consider buying the M2 alteration for Railgun. It reduces the damage range and makes you deal more consistent damage, so the values don't randomly happen to be really high or really low.
