The North Carolina is a pussy. I fired a 4 torpedo T1 spread and
before the third one hit the main deck was on the water line.
After that I started to experiment. The BB USS North Carolina in
SH4 sank like an anvil with one torpedo. So, if you experienced
the same let me know because I fixed it.

Yeah, I didn't notice it untill yesterday when I used it in a custom mission.
At first I thought it was because I was using Natural Sinking Mechanics 4,
but that was not the problem. The prpblem was in the ships zon file.
When I am satisfied that I fixed the problem totaly I will upload it.

far.

The Japanese warships are bad, but a single torpedo....ouch, thats awful.

Makes me think that the U-boat add-on wasn't intended when the game was released therefore the US ships have bad zon files because they were never intended to intentionally be sunk.

Yep, they didnt expect that they were gona do a U boat addon for SH4, But the Iowa (when I got bord once) takes over 4 fish to sink, I did it with a fleet boat in a mission I made. Yes I know she was on my subs side.

Yeah, I did notice the the zon file was uniqe compared to the typical zon file
so I changed it with the BB Fuso zon file.

That's okay, before I disabled that stupid enter button firing torps, I've sunk ships in harbor too!

So how many torps now to sink her?

I'm not a Zone expert.
But I look at the zone files and can see what's what.

I was told by one Very Good Zone Person,
"If no one mentions the damage model? It's a good Model."

I agree with that statement!

I also know who did at lest some of the damage models for SH4.
I'd like to talk abit more with him also.


I don't remember if I mentioned that some Damage Models
for some Ships are Mirrors!!
:hmm:

AirCraft Carriers are the best examples of inverse damage models!
