Regarding the guns, I mean.

As a VIIb captain, I see many times, that the waves are merely wash over the lowest parts, and the deck of the U-boot arent moves that mutch, that an experienced crew wouldnt handle a gun. And of course, still cant man the guns.

My main question is, that -what- are the values meaning, compared to real life?

StormConditions=7,0.1;max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1]

All weather gun mods usually uses 15 as a replacement for 7.

But whats the -meaning- of the number? The wave height in meters? XD
Or what?

And what the: max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1] means?
As in a heavy rain, and devastating wind may really hinder the targeting useless...

So I trie to decide, what should be the realistic choice of values.
So when a basic kaleun started to think it over twice, before sending out the crew for the gun?

How to compare this numbers to real life?

Thank you, and regards
