If you want to avoid transforming plane's machine guns into deadly weapons, you should create a new shell type (duplicating one of the existing ones with s3d), give it the desired damage /armor penetration settings, and then replace the 20mm_AP_shell with the new one in sub flak guns sim files.
Thanks for that Gap, but I wouldn't know what to do to change things around for making a mod. I'll leave that for you young lads that really know what you're doing. For now I can live with what we have. I just means being a lot more careful attacking armed shipping.

Besides, if I broke SH5 it I wouldn't know how to fix it. It would mean another reinstall and I don't think I want to do that again for a while. I've just gotten going agian with Happy Times and I still have bugs to work out from my mod soup. But.... I'm getting them straightened out little by little each time I get back to port.
