How to Play Part 3 - Firing Cannons
Now you will learn how to fire cannons:
1) When you start a mission with the Practice button, all enemy ships will be unarmed. You will see ships around your submarine. You can practice your shooting on them.
2) We will learn to shoot with the cannon so make sure your submarine is surfaced (press the Surface button or the R key).
3) Adjust your violet range with the violet buttons (or Page Up, Page Down, Home which we recommend more) and make it come very close to a target (ship) you want to shoot at. If the ship is too far away, first move your submarine closer to the target (using A S D W or the green buttons).
4) When the violet range is very close to a target turn your view by dragging your mouse, touch screen or by arrow keys and make the target be near the center of the screen.
5) You will see a smaller violet circle oscillating around the target. That is where your cannon is gazing at. Press the J key (or the gray colored C button which writes C50, C49, C48 ... as your bullets count down). You will see a bullet fired at the oscillating circle. Try to harm and sink a ship.
6) In this game, one damaging shot on a ship is never enough to sink it. You must hit at least two times. They better be on two different points. Shooting at the same spot will not be very effective. The best practice is to shoot on the head or the back and one on the side. Shooting on the head or the back will flood lots of water in and shooting on the side will destabilize the ship.
This is how technical it can get. Ready for the torpedoes?
