Okay, 'AA guns error angle test mod' available here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?855alb6j9vdk8cn
This mods contains 4 submods (enable one at a time). It doesn't include the changes introduced so far with armaments & equipments patch, but they are compatible with each other. The use of A&E patch v0.2 together with this last one, is optional.
The submods are:
- decrease own AA guns error angle: should make AI controlled guns on your sub as good as the ones aboard ships (Max error angle=4.5, sub guns Trav/Elev tolerance=4.5, ship guns Trav/Elev tolerance=1)
- decrease even more own and AI AA guns error angle: should make both your gunners and the ones enlisted on ships excellent shooter (Max error angle=1, sub guns Trav/Elev tolerance=1, ship guns Trav/Elev tolerance=1)
- increase AI AA guns error angle: should make the gunners aboard ships as bad as your ones (Max error angle=15, sub guns Trav/Elev tolerance=15, ship guns Trav/Elev tolerance=1)
- increase even more own and AI AA guns error angle: should make both your gunners and the ones enlisted on ships horrible shooters (Max error angle=30, sub guns Trav/Elev tolerance=30, ship guns Trav/Elev tolerance=1)
The above names and my explainations of them are assuming that the Max error angle parameter in sim.cfg is applied only to ships mounted guns.
If this interpetation is
not correct, then only the 2nd submod will be balanced; the 2nd submod would make our gunners a bit more accurate, but still worse that the ones aboard ships, and the 3rd and 4th, though decreasing the accuracy of ship mounted AA guns, would make our own guns inpossible to handle: I wouldn't be surprised if weird things happened
That's enough right now. Keep me informed on the results guys!

Is this with TDW's patch enabled? Is it possible that when fixing the general feature, he disabled speed and date controllers?

Your positive attitude doesn't convice me. Not in this case
To me is inacceptable having, during late war, the same dud rates as in 1939
Anyway not everything is lost: while we wait for TDW to hopefully come back and have a look at the issue, you (
) can collect as much historical info as you can and prepare several versions of the mod with different dud rates for different periods. At worse, we will fix those dud torps the hard way, by enabling a different submod every six months
