Reload time for flack/deck guns

Tomas23 · 10-02-09, 03:47 AM

Does anyone know the correct reload times for these guns? I want to set them via SH3 Commander to their historic reload times.

And does having an experienced gunner affect these times? Do they get faster at it?

Thanks

Tomas2,

I think that a more experienced gunner will give you a better result in accuracy of the shots; just from my experiences. As far as having actual in-game reload rates being tied with more crew experience, I imagine it is locked into the game coding. Maybe not, and maybe someone out there knows for sure.

in sub commander and in one of the game files you can set a reload time which I believe is treated as the fastest it can be, so if you set it to 3 seconds, with your best gunners on the gun crew giving max crew efficiency you'll get 3 second reload times, the times then getting longer as crew efficiency drops. The rate of that drop I do not know though and is probably the hard coded bit. That's how I understand it at least.

I can confirm for a certainty that crew efficiency does change the reload rate of the guns. This is the main reason I use the gunner qualifications. I make heavy use of this feature.

I hadn't noticed much of a difference in accuracy when I am shooting, and I rarely let the crew try for very long. They always suck in my opinion.
