Quick question on visibility range in GWX

KPII · 05-23-07, 11:47 AM

Just a quick question on visibility range: it has happend a couple of times that a DD pops up "out of the blue" on approx. 1 - 1,5 nm (I refuse to use Km) without the lookouts noticing them. I have the bridge manned to 100% efficiency (1 Lt. with watch skill, 1 NCO with watch skill and two swabs), so I would expect them to at least spot them at the same time as the DD spots me. The first hint I get is when the 4,5'' shells starts landing on or near my precious class VIIC.

Is there a general visibility range for the AI in GWX (e.g. 4-6 nm in clear weather)?

Thanks
