Bigger shell splashes??

I read somewhere that when the stringbags (swordfish torpedo bombers) attacked the bismarck, the bismark fired its guns into the water, creating massive splashes in an attempt to make the water hit the planes to stuff up their engine, bring them down, p*ss them off or something. could this be implemented in the game?

it does not have to be used like it was thier, but it would be cool to be surprised by a battleship makking massive explosions.

it sounds pretty easy to do, just replace the splash thoses guns make with the torpedo expopsion splash.

This is another incidence of needless eye candy, other than for screenshots, this would serve no purpose in the game.

I think I described something like this in a different thread, but whatever :P

The point of the game is to simulate subs, not planes, not battleships. The devs don't need to program much in the way of surface tactics, because it can be assumed that the player won't see it!

Never modded before, so I don't know how easy it would be to make it happen.


But there are a lot of mods out there so maybe a mod out there that could make this happen.

:P Sorry if I sound like an *******

To answer your question, probably not. The torpedo impact splashes are not "solid" so you couldn't randomly replace it. You would also need to change the ship's AI to have it determine when to use the water splashes, which would take a humongous amount of effort.

I think most of the physics in game are hardcoded, so yeah...no

You might be able to give the splash a collisionable object controller.
But given the shell speed and angles of fire?
You'd probably never see it hit the water ahead of an inbound aircraft.
They always climb to a set height then do a Dive bomb attack.
Torpedo attacks by AirCraft don't happen in SH3 as they did in
Real Life.
In Real Life?
