But wait a minute, are you putting the 4.7" duals to surface combat? They were designed to engage aerial targets most of the time.
But i think there is an error in the ship's gun AI files, wich would determine at how big degree/Angle error the guns start to fire.. I have no other idea then.

Thanks for the info, appreciate it.
Yes the guns are changed according to the gunsradar.dat which has them as obj_cannon which will fire at both if it has the right ammo. In the game they were obj_Turret and had only AA ammo. I did find the 3 degree for AI, I haven't found the setting in player settings yet. (Because I wasn't looking for it until you told me

)
There is a different 5 inch Jap but the shield around it is too big for the platforms. And I figured my subs 5" deck gun does a good job on merchants, don't know why it wouldn't work here in addition to the four 'big' guns. But I am a beginner and there is a lot I don't know. And the 6 inch was way too big!!! There is a 4.7 US but this is 5 inch Jap. Don't imagine there is much difference. Do you think I should NOT use them as cannons?
As for AAs there are 17- 25mm and slots for more (35) that are set to NULL, they used the same epq file as Takao (sister ship) I think, but someone else is working on that one so I picked the Maya (I think it's Miner). So if 17 guns can't shoot down a few planes, then we are in big trouble. I think the biggest problem is they all shoot at the same target.
The bridge is not where I want it but it need some 3D work and I can't get it to work, too many bars in the way, can't see anything. So for now it is in the highest platform, I did get the bars out of the way up there. But not much room up there.
@ Ishigami never mind the shrine until you see the ship, I am a beginner.:rotfl:.
Thank you again for your help.
