Fleetboats rarely used their AA guns on aircraft, used them shoot up surface craft, would really add to the sim if could order the deck gun plus 40 and 20 MM target surface vessels together.
i believe it is the same concept as having enemy DD's fire torpedoes at player subs.
the launchers are defined as deck guns so they AI will fire them at a player.
i asked this same question of a modder two-three years ago and he replied but i could never make it work.
i'll see if i can find the post and send it to you.

i would also like to use my small weapons vs ships, especially the 40mm vs locals....when they get in the way of regular attacks on ships. bloody nuisance.


Hey PB, who was (is) the resource that showed you how to get DD's to fire torpedoes at player subs? didn't that process include making the torpedo launchers act like guns to enable AI firing?
