Long 37mm Flak Gun reload
 

I upgraded my VIIC to a new conning tower and installed a heavy 37mm flak gun. The reload time is listed as 1.5 sec, but in-game it takes 4-5 sec to reload. This seems to be as long as the 88mm deck gun. Does anyone else have this problem, and/or is there a solution? Is the heavy flak gun reload somehow tied to the deck gun reload time? Using GWX 1.03 w/ SH3 CDR.

The more tired the crew member on the gun the longer the reload
Same with experience :up:

I think you can use SH3 commander to change reload times for you flak gun(s)

you can only change the deckgun reloading times in SH3 Cmdr
not flak:up:

Wast of renown for a pop, pop gun. :roll:

Actually STEED they can be useful for Merchys that refuse to go down.:yep: Also they can bring down a bomber with ease.

What version of the 37mm do you have? The stock standard version (semi-auto) is slow firing at the best of times, but if you have a well rested and experienced crew you should find it loads faster.

Thanks - will take a look at the crew again. IIRC, the crew was fully rested and one was a petty officer w/ the Flak Gun skill. It was the first 37mm that become available, however.

Merchants :up:

Bomber what's that? :-?

Not one bomber has crossed my path in six months at sea :smug: on the other hand the odd fighter has. :yep:

You will find that it will be slow reloading anyway. When the first auto 37mm comes avaible, buy it!:up: You will find the twin 37mm is what you truly dream of.:rock:
