I'd rather not bother.
All my efforts to enable RFB....AND edit the gun .sim files are coming to naught...(see topic in MOD section)
SO I just wondered if you guys bothered to even use the silly things anymore? 
p.s. just so you know I love everything else about RFB, but am considering chunking the whole thing just for this one highly irritating issue. I dont want a super cannon or a machine gun.....just not to have to spend a half hour taking out a sampan. |
It's called Real Fleet Boat for a reason.
Ship sinking times and damage are being totally re-done, but don't suddenly expect miracles with the deck gun. It will remain what it was designed to be: a weapon to finish off cripples or targets not worth a torpedo.
On a related note, are you putting crewmen in the deck gun slots? If not, your reload times will be terribly slow no matter what.
