AXIS DD Bow gun AMMO Supply

[wittmann]

The bow gun ( position #3) on the AXIS Destroyers Primary ammo capacity shows 240 when in actuality it is only 120. Please correct.

------------

The rangefinder is a POS!

Very inaccurate at ranges beyond 3,000 meters.

There is a bug with the crosshair on all 3 DD models, that can BADLY effect your rangefinder (which is actually quite good i think). I pósted it 2 times in the past years, sadly Gophur says he can not replicate it (while I could replicate it on 4 different PCs (3 different accounts and actual people).

I gave up chasing this matter though ... if the game should revive the navy someday I'd maybe start to care again

I wonder, I can max my mains, have the triangle tip focused on a certain point, change to my number two position, switch back to my mains, and it seems to drop a good 1/4 inch.

wonder if that changes the overall range.

I also posted pics about the 37mm's in the harbor a looong time ago...never got an answer on that...doubt you'll get an answer on this

You guys never responded to the original comment that the primary bow "gun" shows 240 rounds ammo supply when the OP thought it should be 120. The answer of course is that it isn't a gun, it's a 2 turret battery of 2 guns x 120 rounds, the secondary bow battery is the single center turret gun with 120 rounds.

As to the rangefinder, I haven't sailed much lately until the last campaign, but I could swear it has gotten pretty goofy. I thought it was just me, but during intermission just found some nub parked broadside in open water, I reversed until speed was nearly zero and measured at the waterline. When I fired, splashes were at least 400m long which led to a long fight that should have never occurred.

So what is this crosshair bug thing that was mentioned? In the past, I thought the rangefinder was fairly decent, but it's not been too useful for me lately.

I'm working on a new control scheme for the DD where:

Pos1 - drive + aaa fire doirector external view

Pos2 - main guns

This should break the current hard modeled connections between these weapon systems and allow us to better fire these weapons. Should also make you much deadlier to AA as all weapons will automatically try and fore to the selected fire point. It can probably even converge on targets better.
