Ships floating in the sky

[Jelkan]

hi, so im currently playing with Karle94's Montana
and i have modified the binoculars to fit my view range need, and that view range is higher then 20km, or i will pretty much be dead before the task force is down.

heres a picture of theese flying battleships: http://www.xfire.com/profile/stevo19...view#117723836
(if the japanese ships could fly, then why didnt they win the war?:P)

its does not bother me that much with the flying ships, its more that i cant target them when theyr in the sky

the original settings on the binoculars that came with karle94's monatana is"7"
ive changed them to "25", less then that and its to hard to see them at 20km and higher

does anyone know how to make me able to target them so my cannons can fire at them even thou theyr flying?
or to stop making them fly and still keep the view range which would be the ultimate fix:P

help me, please:P

If you don't want to die you can always change the armor level of your ship.
So it can take a pounding

I don't think the game's engine was designed to have such binoculars.

lol, im not a p***y, i want to be able to die, but i still wanna bombard them at 20km:P make it harder for me to die, and more realistic, even thou binoculars capable of viewing 20km is probably not that realistic, but its needed since my crew wont automaticly fire at them at 20km, so, close enough:P

Actually, my ships can fire at enemy ships beyond 20km. My Iowa sank a ship at 25km. The Admiral Hipper and H-39/H-44 can also engage enemy ships beyond 20km.

well, why wont the montana fire at 20km?
its your montana, im sure theyr all scripted about the same arent they?
i hasnt made any other changes then the binoculars

Some of my ships have some small differences in the cfg files.

[Jelkan]

so the montana cant automaticly fire at 20km?
at 15km the binoculars work fine and i can tell the crew to fire, but they wont do it automaticly

they start firing by themself at 8km-10km depending on what ship it is

If a ship is spotted and the crew are ordered so, they will automaticy fire at any ships. Even if you can see the ship, doesn`t mean that the crew does.

theyr fire at will, but they cant see the ship at 20km,
i guess one way to help me would to tell me how to make them able to recognize ships at 20km

Change a few things in the cfg files and edit the crew coefficiency.

[Jelkan]

i have tried to modify the cfg and crewcoefficency
but nothing seems to help, im not the best at doing this kinds of things, i barrerly know the basics, so it doesnt really get me far
