Hi,

that's weired

In my tests I designated a C3 as type=4 and it started to attack me, change course in order to ram the boat, increased speed,... The only explanation I have is that the different behavior is only with respect to an enemy sub, but not a surface unit

An easy test would be to change the nationality of the AI sub to British and see whether it attacks the player submarine.

If the range of the guns is far enough and also the sensor settings then a destroyer should shoot at the target even if does not move, shouldn't it? Wouldn't that help at least?

Cheers, LGN1

PS: As Hitman has suggested one should maybe start a series of tests with different types and see whether anything changes with respect to ship vs. ship engagements.

Another resort might be to create a unit in the aircraft folder that looks like a u-boat... However, I don't know whether this can be done easily. One advantage of this approach would be that it might be possible to change the depth of u-boat.
