Smoke Generators can be used in combat to deploy a smoke screen.

This mechanic is still under investigation!

Activation

• If equipped, it can be activated with a specific button when selecting the formation.
  • It can be activated multiple times per sortie until it triggers, being triggerable once, in day battle only.
• It cannot be activated in Exercises in the current implementation.
• The trigger rate is not 100% and depends on the fleet's flagship's luck , as well as the amount and type of Smoke Generators used.
  • For combined fleets, it is the luck of the main flagship.
  • The size of the triggered smoke screen depends on how many smoke generators are used.
• It will only trigger at the beginning of the Shelling phase.

Once activated

• The amount and type of Smoke Generators used affects the effect of the smoke screen.
  • This is reflected in the smoke screen size, being Large > Medium > Small.
• It sharply reduces the accuracy of all fleets, proportionally to the smoke screen size (the hit rate is still capped at 11%).
  • Thi effect can be (partially?) bypassed by using Surface Radars (both sides).
• The effect will last for a limited duration.
