Hi all,

We seem to have a question on the main forum which i am transferring here.

Someone noticed that Japanese 4.7" CD guns upgrade to 4.7" DP guns but the 4.7" DP guns never fired AA at aircraft. So he went into the editor and saw that the 4.7" DP gun was in fact called a naval weapon and not a DP weapon like the 3" DP gun.

If this is a bug does it also effect the Japanese 20mm AA/AT gun which was used in an AA role? It is listed in the editor as a 'army device'.

I had assumed !!! that any device with a ceiling value defined would fire AA. I guess in my AA tests i had just used AA regiments equipped with 75mm and 105mm AA guns. Never noticed this but this will be a rather important bug if it is a bug.

Thanks for your time.

Mike

Perhaps that´s a reason why japanese AA is so weak.

sigh... That would explain quite a bit about the feeble Japanese AA in the game.

Thanks for taking some interest in this, Lemurs. I can't understand why it wouldn't get fixed. It would take only a minute and a couple of mouse clicks to fix it. Same for fixing the Ki-45 FB load rating ...substitute 1102 for 250 and viola, fixed.

Not sure. He escaped from the cold dank cellar I had him locked in doing OOB corrections.

I have an APB out on him. If you see a skinny guy wearing rags, a manic expression and mumbling stuff like...."Devices, Pilots and Leaders OH MY!" wandering around, let me know so that I can get him back in the cellar in time for the next patch

yea, we just fixed at the CHS as well. The reaction speed of user created mods is amazing.

Glad you think it is so dang easy there Doktor....

Lets see for every correction I make I have to make it 16 different times... You folks always seem to think in terms of the scenario you are playing, I have to do it for each and every Official Scenario then make them again to my 6 side projects... Lets see that is 22 times for each and every single correction, assuming only one data field has to be changed. Yeah real quick and easy...

Viola.... Right...

Hi
Of course, the OOB change only takes affect on a NEW start, not on games already started.

OOPS! ... Sorry there Mr. Pry. Yes you are right. I wasn't thinking of all the the scenarios since I have only played a couple of them. Thanks for fixing it anyway!
