Does anybody have any idea why my and enemy ships do not fire?
The circle is the sighting range (the main gun range are even greater) and ships are 30 minutes in vision contact with full ammo and they do not fire after each other.
EDIT: There is probably something corrupted as it seems there is invincible wall between them. Both fleet cannot set course to target. |

Possibly they can't identify each other so they didn't fire or they are out of ammunition. They both might be scared to death of shooting, so they just stared each other down. |

No, the enemy ships are identified by class so the've definitely been verified as enemy. He technically doesn't have the gun range circle selected. I don't know if that was intentional or not but I would think that the gun range for BB and BC in 1925 would at least equal to the sighting range so I don't think that matters. I have no idea what's going on. Not being able to change course is what sometimes happens at the beginning of a scenario but it should unlock once the enemy is sighted.

Not being able to change course is what sometimes happens at the beginning of a scenario but it should unlock once the enemy is sighted. 27,000 yards is a long enough sighting distance that it could be a few thousand yards greater than the maximum range of a 13" or lighter gun, maybe also low- or possibly middling-quality 14" and 15" guns - especially without Increased Elevation's 10% bonus to gun range. That said, unless this is a reduced-research game, it's fairly likely that you'd have Increased Elevation by 1920. Additionally, the two forces in the image appear to separated by much less than the sighting range - perhaps in the neighborhood of 18,000 to 20,000 yards - so I'd think that even with 11"/Q-1 guns the ships would at least be at the outer limit of gun range even without Increased Elevation. |

Actually I was being just silly, I know what you are saying.  |
