Edit with notepad.

The file i mentioned is what controls when the raingear comes on, and as cited, when it is considered too rough to man the guns. The variables i dont remember exactly, but its VERY self explanitory. My suggestion would be to edit the storm factor (i think thats the name) to like..... 13 or so. Best compromise between oilskins and bad weather guns. Certainly not the default 9 or whatever the value was, and if set to 15, you'll never see oilskins unless its raining.

Good idea, I'm toying with the idea of doing just that next time I'm able to make changes. I dislike not having the crew don their oilskins no matter how bad it gets, but I would like a little more leeway on when the guns are available.

The default is 7. I keep my Type IIs at 9 and everything else at 11.

If I can see the waves washing over the deck I don't man the gun, but I can still put someone on the flak gun up to 11. With wave height doubled that equals 22, and that's big enough for me.
