Prevention measure to keep gun crew from injury
 
Noted that even while submerged, if the deck guns are damaged, so are the people who man then (even while safely inside the sub).

Was going to try something to prevent that, just wanted an opinion on it:

Remove 3 people from DC team, and put those three guys in there instead (two for the deck gun, one for the AA).

If they're not in those slots, they shouldn't be injured while submerged right?

Right.. besides why would there be crew in those 'slots' while submerged anyhow?

Silly game.

I wish there was a way to assign various crew members around the boat to DC.

Then when you clicked a button they moved to DC.

Like in SH3. But preselect by skils when setting up crew.

Just move them out of the deck gun slot/aa into the sub.;)

That's the idea, I just have to have 3 empty slots to move them to, and figured that DC would be just right - if they're not busy shooting something, they can fix stuff instead. :smug:

RFB will have a new feature like this to go along with the new submarine damage model: 3 slots have been added to the conning tower for the watch officers, and a new "Hogan's Alley" (aft battery crew quarters) set of slots have been created for the rest of the watch crew. This way, the bridge watch won't be injured if depth charges damage the bridge.

Yes, we are. Currently we're integrating PE4 into RFB and finishing up the first phase of the new ship damage mod. Once that's done, we should have a new public release ready.

Luke, you forgot to add the :damn: as it's the closest to a wall we got here.:up:

Great info though! Sounds like the GWX team is going to really get this baby up and runnin' like it did with SHIII. This is going to be a good one.
