I don't believe the Hard Code will allow that.
I did add an A01 node and gave it a Gun.
Even when I fired on it? It just Rowed along never even aiming at me.

have you thought about retexturing a small gunboat to look like a lifeboat?

it would be set up to fire on things so it might be easier to equipt it the way you want and the texture could make it look like a lifeboat.

just something to ponder

imagine the surprise of a sub being fired at with small caliber if they attack !!!

great work, but to me that degree of water transparency looks badly wrong. I have been on boats before. Can something be done about that?

That's Stock SH4 water in the screen shot.

We could change the Unit type and create a gun that looks like a Guy no problem.
(In the K-Ship We have a Guy with bino's in the lookout position.
He does look and point at enemy Units.)

But it would not spawn when a ship sinks.

Nice job.

The Liferaft really does look good. I had to rush out and sink a few big boats just to see it bouncing around.

The lookouts randomly pointing when there is nothing there always makes me look that way. Then I get PO'd that the lookout is doing that.

The lookout should only point at something on a trigger of "Smoke on the Horizon", "Aircraft Spotted" or "Ship Spotted".

I hope that this is something we may be able to correct in the future?
