[TEC] Opinions

Something that has always annoyed me is how when IJN 25 MM AA guns are used as surface weapons how quickly they damage the submarines hull. These were relatively light projectiles and do not believe a few hits would erode the hull integrity the way seems to do. Honestly, it is one element that makes moving inside large convoys on surface at night still a bit too risky in most cases without blinding the enemy ships, which would make the sim boring of course.

In reality, subs took fire sometimes and while the big guns rarely hit, machine gun (which is what most merchants should have) and autocannon fire from merchants was more a threat to topside crew and external equipment than the hull. Correct? Opinions?

Also, which files can adjust this? I have searched for the files and can not seem to locate them, not clearly labeled as so many things in SH 4 lol. Thinking the the level of armor they penetrate is too high and needs to be lowered.
