So I don't know where these people are coming up with a shot every 3-4 seconds.

From the official published documents, of course. The people who insist on those numbers never take real life into account.

The gun would blow up from overheating IF the crew could even keep this rate of fire up.

We never blew a gun up, but then we were doing shore bombardment and never fired more that one round every minute or so. We did overheat a couple of times, though.

I'll use the template of 8 for the 88mm, and 12 for the 105mm and go from there I suppose, unless somebody has a more realistic parameter setting.

I doubt anyone will be able to fulfill that last requirement. I gave my reason for using the times I do, but the main reason is that they suit me. Yours are as good as anybody's. :sunny:

If you are still looking to use the flag here is what the menu shouyld look like (using your own numbers if needed of course)
G26 I200 was the last entry in my menu so I added the next block in.
The next block after that is for the binos.
If you follow that you will have no issue...and make sure you have the "flaggen" .tga file in the layout as well or it wont work for you
