my personal experience tells me that Auto FCS its the best-working radar for escort...
i don't even know if another type of FCS even works, when i tested it didn't.
i will use this thread to post my very own question about escort:
when i'm using CV, i tend to use neutral DD as escort, equiped with 4x6' single guns (with HHE). This gives the escort a nice punch against low tier rushers while it won't use any Ship slot on any national harbor. The only real issue with this DD is that somehow it runs out of ammo after a couple of battles... i have saw that it start with "12" (3 binds per gun) and afer a couple of shots in battle on the escort screem it will show "8" (2 binds), then "4" (1 bind) and then "0" (0 bind)
When i use the "reload" button nothing happens... the only solution is to dismiss escort and manually reload ammo... and u can imagine that its quite anoying (cost its not a real issue)...
is there any solution to this? it happens on every escort ship? or this is a bug for this particular ship?
