Page 20: Below you will find the accurate conditions for using the Deck Gun and Flak Gun:
DECK GUN
You can control the U-boat’s deck gun from this location. The deck gun can be used only when the ship is surfaced. To assign crew members to the deck gun, open a dialog with the Watch Officer and order him to send the crew to the deck gun. To get a better view of a target, use the gun’s optical aiming device by pressing the ZOOM icon from the upper left corner of the screen. On the left side of the optical aiming device, you will see the current elevation of the gun in metres. Move the crosshairs left or right using the left and right cursor keys or the mouse to point the gun in the desired direction. Use the Up and Down arrow keys or the mouse to aim at long or close range. Press the Space bar to fire.
FLAK GUN
There can be up to three different flak gun locations, depending on the type and version of the U-boat. The flak guns can be used only when surfaced. In order to assign crew members to the flak guns, open a dialogue with the Watch Officer and order him to send the crew to the flack guns. To zoom in on the view of a target through the targeting device, use the mouse wheel. Move the aiming device left or right by using the mouse to point the flak gun in the desired direction. Use the mouse to adjust range and follow your target. Press the space key to fire.
