Ships won't attack until after planes pass

[Spaz-505]

I've been working on a ship mission and haven't been able to get the Axis ships to fire on the incoming Allie planes until after they pass.  I verified in the video replay this is the issue.  Any assistance greatly appreciated!

Correct mis-spelling ;)

The logic below will work and ships will fire as planes arrive. The Attack MCU is in High mode. Planes are flying at 300mt altitude.

But you have to take certain elements in consideration. The AAA guns on the ships will react and fire depending on their range and the distance to the target.

By range I mean direct line of sight range. If your plane is flying high then they may be out of range. The light  machineguns in general have  useful range of 1000 meters.

The AAA cannons on the destroyers have a longer range of 3000 mt or more. You have also to consider reaction time of the guns which by default are not aligned with the incoming targets.

There is a delay between plane detection and gun orientation correctly set and start of fire.
