You ability to adjust aim will be effected as it is for the AI. But not the accuracy. That is, if on a perfect day, you have a plane coming in on the level your accuracy is not effected.

I changed the ‘speedElevation’

For the AA 90 to 25
For the deck gun 10 to 1.25

When I looked at the issue of the Laser Guided Aiming System what caught my eye was when the AA nailed it and when the AA did not.

What I noticed was that the AA from left to right and right to left, would often trail the plane. But when ever the plane was coming head on, I am not talking about in simple level flight, but when the plane was diving from and/or climbing to a great height at speed and angle, speeding over head and other various situations where you would not expect a gunner to be able to maintain a bead on the aircraft even without being on a rocking and rolling u-boat in 10 knot winds.

So with this in mind, I deduced that the ‘speedElevation’ needed to be slowed down so that the AA could not adjusting the aim up and down with a superman ability.

And it works a treat. The AA can still hit the aircraft, as they should be able to, but when a plane changes height quickly the AA cannot instantly adjust. Nor can they instantly adjust the aim when the weather gets worse. So as the weather gets worse, so does the ability of the AA.

The same principle works for the deck gun. The deck gun should be able to gently adjust the aim in relation to the rocking of the boat, but only to a small degree. And that is what we have with the deck gun. When you look at it you will notice that there are a lot of instances where it is not maintaining a precise level and that the gun is rocking with the boat.
