Doctrine: AI-Sub / SAM

[Hawk66]

Hi,

has anybody tried to alter the doctrine for SAM-equipped ( maybe with change of the DB) subs so that they can fire SAMs?

Or does the NavalSimEngine prevent this?

Thanks.

When the aircraft is found out, the doctrine SubAvoidAir orders AI Sub to be dive deep. On shallow water, if it will impossible to dive a AI Sub shoot SAM missile. Change the doctrine. In her there is a mistake - such variable as "FRIENDLY" no. Correctly - $= "FRIEND".

Thanks GrayOwl.
I've started to change the doctrine.

Actually, it seems possible...AI sub fires SAM but it never hits, but probably due to insufficient targeting.

When I have one first working version I'll post it here.
