WG should reduce the draw distance, view range etc. while a ship sits in the middle of the smoke...
Nonsense that they can clearly see me on the seas while they sitting in the middle of the smoke.
Guys you should totaly rework the whole smoke mechanic. The cyclone model would be a great base for this.
While a ship sits on the edge of the smoke, it can have a 100% view range and if the player goes into the middle of the smoke area the max view distance should be reduced to 8km... like while the cyclone is on.
This model can be used for the visibilty too. While a ships sits on the edge of the smoke should have the chance to become visible after shooting (maybe 20%), but the player can reduce the chance with sailing into the middle of the smoke. After that should be reduced to 0%.
Hope you can make something like that. Here you can see how should work:
I hear the crying of the Belfast, Fiji and DD players
