Flak gun problem....

bojan811 · 09-06-09, 06:16 AM

My problem is that ever since i bought my tower 2/for VIIC and gain the two flak guns crew on the other flak wont fire a single round.
So i have to manage the flak.
I also noticed that i now have single barel flacks (the firs flack you have on the start of the carrier) and those had 10 clip size and my now have 40 klip size and they fire like nuts.they fire 40 rounds in i would say 10 sek.
But agian I repeat my second flak guner won`t fire at planes, he folows them but he does not shot.

Did anyone expirience the same problem or similar?

I think there are 2 keys for the flak : F for the main Flak and G for the second one, but dunno how to use it really.

Does the second flak gunner have any experience is he a qualified flak gunner officer or just a seaman what level of promotion is he at does he have any medals
All these factors add to the response of the crewman at station
You cant just place a crewman at a station and expect him to be the best ever gunner
You can try saving the game then reloading the save and also call the watch crew back to the bride then recalling the flak gunners 3 or 4 times and also set the fire at will and then stop then again fire at will. This my jolt him into firing.
The best way is to have a flak qualified gunner with medals

Fire off a few rounds yourself then go to the bridge position.....nowhere else....and he should commence firing.
