RenamedUser_92906789 Players 5,828 posts Report post #1 Posted January 8 Priority AA sector on CVs does not work. Pressing "0" or "'" does nothing. No indication of anything. So I wanted to bind the priority target keys on CV to some other binds... But the binds are nowhere present in the settings. I searched them all .. cant find anything related ... keys "0" and "'" are not bind to anything ... it seens they are some hardcoded defaults that don't even work ???? Question: How do I set the keys or make the keys work ? EDIT: Explanation: I use SPACE for priority sector on surface ships. Idk why here its saying 0 or '. So i figured that on CVs you can set two keys for LEFT and RIGHT sector that you can control during flight. Apparently not :D 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are some operations where you get SWAMPED by AI bot planes. Why wouldn't I use it ???? The screen suggest I could. Did you even look at it? Your "the other CV player has to really know how to dodge flak & fighters to sink you" makes absolutely no sense. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And for added sauce, make it scriptable so that you can spawn multiple matches in all of your CVs to run at the same time with just one mouse click. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I presume this is a forgotten functionality in "well tested" operations. I'd be surprised if it's specific to operations. Back on topic, and assuming the wiki isn't out of date in this area, it does actually look like CV players are (were ?) supposed to manage priority sector themselves. From https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Anti-Aircraft_Fire Quote Aircraft carrier players can only activate Sector Reinforcement when they are at the carrier, not when they are flying. Only thing I can say is what happens if you use the standard compass? Normally you see the priority sector highlighted in green (with an orange ring on cooldown). Maybe the mod you're using is messing up that functionality. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you never used priority sector on surface ships ? No offense, but your OP is really dumb imo; sector reinforcement has always been there for any ship with AA since its implementation.

Have you never used priority sector on surface ships ? No offense, but your OP is really dumb imo; sector reinforcement has always been there for any ship with AA since its implementation. For surface ships I use SPACE for sector reinforcement. I look at the direction and press it. I use MOUSE 5 to have it ON / OFF. For some reason I had the key before 1 (tilde?) bound as a secondary command for that: But "0" is not bound to anything in the settings, so I have no idea why the game suggest, that I can use priority sector reinforcements with two separate key bind. I expected I could be selecting the sector when flying the squadrons and defend against bots attacks more efficiently. I can also use the sector reinforcement with SPACE or tilde key WHEN I AM NOT FLYING SQUADRONS. But my initial post was asking if I can select the side with two keys when flying around ... Apparently I misunderstood ... the X OR Y from my initial post screen is telling me the two bound keys (0 is wrong for some reason, since I use SPACE) for same action (priority sector), while I understood its LEFT or RIGHT reinforcement while I am flying around with planes :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WG separated (direct) control of both squadron and CV hull; so (in this setting) it makes sense you can't use sector reinforcement when flying your squadron. WG catered to the average CV Wows player ... that's all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured the CVs have bound keys for using the sector when flying around besides the standard "look and press space when in ship" ... thats all. Thanx for helping me figure it out. I still dont know why it shows 0 instead of SPACE in first image ... its still like that. Just checked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[_I_] Nibenay78 Players 3,266 posts 27,734 battles Report post #19 Posted January 8 It's probably what is left for you to control once plane control is automated. Then you can enjoy driving the ship itself and pressing O.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Auto AA and auto Fighters....... the other CV player has to really know how to dodge flak & fighters to sink you...... It is mostly a PvE thing but even in randoms against speshul CVs there is this little time window between recall and launch you can swing the mouse to your side of choice and pop the sector reinforcement while either already having an enemy CV or hybrid squad in range or in the duration when anticipated. Obviously this happens quite rarely, since it has to be used while controlling the carrier and usually maximum plane uptime is always the better answer, but once in a full moon sector AA can weaken/destroy an additional plane and possibly snowball into winning a game.
