[@thewakeup5459]

There's a reason that the enemy battleships were constantly getting flash fires. I'm not 100% sure but I think the game calculates the chance of one happening based on the amount of times a shell hits a certain spot and causes damage over a short amount of time and resets after a few seconds of not taking any damage. Basically the more a single area gets hit in a short time span the higher the chance of each consecutive hit causing a flash fire. I think the ships were getting hit so often that they never had a chance to reset.

[@TheLtVoss]

About the reset I'm not sure but the pure amount of hits(pens) in the section du to many guns on smaller caliber can be the think because at 200 pens even a 0.5% cance (good design) will cook the ammo

[@Danspy501st]

It is also something like Wargaming is running with on their game World of Warships. The more damaged you are, the higher of the chance your magazine will ignite. With that said, there is still a chance for your magazine to get ignited on the first hit on your ship.

[@OskViltry]

@@Danspy501st ships have to be below 75% hp for a detonation to occur and the ships magazines have their own health pool its not a % chance on hit once the magazine looses the last of its hp detonation occurs

[@Danspy501st]

@@OskViltry The part of the below 75%, yes. I agree with that. But the magazine has their own HP, true, but the more damaged they get doing a battle, the higher chance it will give for the magazine to detonate. Althrought, never 100%. In other words, if I saying around in a crruise that have something like 25-30% HP left, then I will be sure that a well placed shot at the magazine will highly detonate them. Either way what it is, they are still a thing to fear to happen. A reason why I sailing with Juliet Charlie on some of my ships, especially most of my destroyers

Taskmaster challenge: Fleet Scout. The scenario. It is WW1 and you are the captain of a British Destroyer tasked with finding and shadowing a German fleet whose composition and destination is unknown and then report your findings back to Fleet Admiralty so they can intercept and destroy the German fleet. You are not to engage at any time. Your first priority is to find the enemy fleet and identify their numbers and fleet composition. Your second priority is to shadow the German fleet for as long as possible without being seen yourself. Your third priority is to survive and return to the main British fleet. Requirements: You: 1 British DD, 1910 tech, 1,000 max tonnage limit (can be less if you want), no other restrictions. German fleet: 5 BB, 3 BC, 7 CL, 13 Torpedo Boats (or DD if the game doesn't allow torpedo boats), 1910 tech. Starting distance 25km. Game length 3 hours. Special rules: must turn off guns and torpedoes at game start - you are not to engage the enemy in combat. Objective: find and close in on the enemy as much as possible without being seen in order to determine their fleet composition, speed and direction of travel. Shadow them for as long as possible and then make your escape. Victory points: 15 points for every capital ship positively identified (5 x BB's, 3 x BC's = 120 total). 5 points for every other ship identified (7 x CL's, 13 x TB/DD = 100 total). 1 point for every in-game minute you have the enemy fleet in visual contact (they don't have to be identified) without them seeing/firing upon you, up to a max of 120 points. 60 points for escaping/surviving. Total possible points = 400.

[@Rundstedt1]

This would have been a great opportunity to finally figure out that the ships are no longer firing full salvos most of the time since the last two updates. Stop jumping around and just watch your ship fire for awhile. A full salvo will fire, than a partial salvo, usually just two guns, then a full salvo ect .... each time waiting for a full reload ..... basically the amount of shells you can send down range has been cut by about 1/3. .

In the midst of this realization, Captain Stealth decides that running away would not get him a big promotion from Stalin and then he changes up the training exercises from a static target practice to a moving one thanking the Germans for the trial by fire. You can build only 1 Sovetsky Soyuz or Kremlin alone Vs. 2 German BBs, 2 BCs, and 2 Heavy cruisers. Sink two or three out of the six enemy forces and escape to win.

Taskmaster challenge: 'The Turtle' Your fleet: * US * 1940s tech * 1 BB: * No weight or cost limit * Minimum 14" of belt and deck armor *Maximum 15 main guns *Maximum 4.5 year build time Enemy fleet: * Japanese * 1940s tech * 1 BB * 4 CA Starting Range: 30km Score: 6 points per BB sunk, 3 points per CA sunk. In case of a tie, longest survival time/fastest victory wins(depending on what happens). Note: Edit it however you like, I haven't done any suggestions before so of course, if you think it's lacking in some way then change it.

Challenge idea, try to keep as many allied ships alive, means build many and prevent them from sinking The person with the most ships still alive wins

Blue sky thinking - anti-DD/TB battleship? Any size and tech you wish, but main armament restricted to smallest size - try various secondary builds, perhaps for the lols just cover the ship with 2 or 3in rapid fire guns

[@kubanskiloewe]

it would be nice to use the own construction later in a game like Warthunder vs others !! but what is the goal of this game beside nice construction ?

[@FellowHeretic]

The ship you made has one hell of a broadside.

*watches you add all those turrets* I'm a mandalorian and weapons are my religion. This is the way.

Challenge idea. Heavy US BB with No guns bigger than 6 inch vs a German invasion fleet of 2 heavy cruisers, 2 battleships, and 4 DD. Design your ship with no weapons bigger than 6 inch, to sink enemy fleet. Good luck if u do like my idea

[@DSiren]

removing prefab components that get installed on a ship within a week of arriving won't decrease construction time - armor is probably the big hang-up

Taskmaster idea: Quickest sink. 1890 vs. 1940 at closest range, whoever sinks first wins.
