(in case TDW gets time to look into this issue too during his short staying at home )

Seeing one day some land-to-sea, land-to-air and air-to-air action in SH5 would be so nice...

I digged into coastal gun's files, and everything looks okay. The sim file got _unit, cmdr_, wpn_Cannon and ob_Sensor controllers, and controller settings seem correct. I then had a look into the AI scripts folder, and I was surprised not to find any reference to land units.

Out of curiosity: has anyone ever seen coastal guns doing their job?

I do remember that coastal defenses was reported by crew in SH4, and the AI guns were firing at me and even damaged sub; never in SH5 can I recall it happening correctly.
