Default [WIP]Guns, Guns, Guns

Well i had some fun today and thought about the gun systems onboard submarines. After a few hours playing about in the packages folder i added a few more guns and differnt settings for them. For example turning the single 40mm bofor into a surface only attack. I know its not realstic but i cant seem to get them to engage surface and air targets. So the run down is something like this

3" / 50cal Anti-Aircraft Gun (Can engage surface targets by manual overide by player if located on bow mount of submarine)
Fires a slow rate of fire but does extreme damage to aircraft. Chances of hitting aircraft are slim.
80 Flak Rounds
20 HE Rounds


Single 40mm Bofor - Surface Attack Only
Engages surface vessels only but can be overiden to act as AA gun by player control.
150 AP
250 HE
Twin 40mm Bofor - Air Targets Only
350 HE
250 AP

On other things i added was a set of dual combos. Its now possible to add dual weapon systems like 3" AA guns front and rear, 2x twin 40mm bofors, 40mm singles, other mixture of combos were added. The only problem i found was some of the crew when assigned to the weapon do not appear to mount it but the weapon is still operates. Some have only one crew member operating it, this happens mostly on the stern mount deckgun.

But yeh im gonna setup the renown bits and dates at which this appear etc and then pack it up and upload the files.

Il do two releases one which keeps the weapon systems for the 40mm single to engage air and 3" back to cannon etc.

Stay Tuned
