'''How searchlight actually works''': Okay, assuming a night battle fleet with 6 ships. If the searchlight was activated, the game will attempt to roll the target to check whether that target is the girl carrying the searchlight (SL). If this attempt failed to roll that girl, it will '''repeat the roll again''' up to two or three attempts total, depends on the type of the searchlight. '''The process will stop once it rolled the girl carrying the SL OR once it failed all the attempts and accept the target rolled in the last attempt as the girl to be aimed at.'''

!Notes
|For this type, '''the game will roll only twice at most'''.
*So what is the rate of the girl carrying SL will get aimed? Lets take a look of all the scenarios:

!Scenario 1
|'''Attempt 1''':
The game will roll her immediately, thats 1/6 chance = '''16.66%'''
*We can see above to draw the following conclusion:

!Scenario 2
|'''Attempt 2''':
The game will fail the first attempt (Rolled 5 other ships instead of that girl, so 5/6 = 83.33%), but will successfully roll her on the second attempt (1/6 = 16.66%), that means this scenario has '''83.33% x 16.66% = 13.88%''' chance of happening
|'''Attempt 2''':
The game will fail the first attempt (Rolled 5 other ships instead of that girl, so 5/6 = 83.33%), but will successfully roll her on the second attempt (1/6 = 16.66%), that means this scenario has '''83.33% x 16.66% = 13.88%''' chance of happening

!Scenario 3
|'''All attempts failed''':
The game will fail both attempts, meaning '''5/6 x 5/6 = 69.44%''' chance that '''she will NOT get aimed at'''
|'''Attempt 3''': The game will fail the first two attempts (Rolled 5 other ships instead of that girl twice, so 5/6 x 5/6 = 69.44%), but will successfully roll her on the third attempt (1/6 = 16.66%), that means this scenario has '''69.44% x 16.66% = 11.56%''' chance of happening

!Scenario 4
|N/A
|'''All attempts failed''': The game will fail all attempts, meaning '''5/6 x 5/6 x 5/6 = 57.87%''' chance that '''she will NOT get aimed at'''

!Results
|We can see above to draw the following conclusion:
*The girl carrying SL has '''16.66% + 13.88% = <font color="red">30.54%</font>''' chance of getting aimed at
*'''69.44%''' that she will '''NOT''' get aimed at
|We can see above to draw the following conclusion:
*The girl carrying SL has '''16.66% + 13.88% + 11.56% = <font color="red">42.1%</font>''' chance of getting aimed at
*'''57.87%''' that she will '''NOT''' get aimed at

===Effect of the SL on the girl===
===Effect of the SL on the girl===
*'''Double Line, Echelon and Line Abreast''' has 60% FS protection, the rate of triggering the shield are '''18.32% (Normal) and 25.26% (Big SL)'''
*'''Double Line, Echelon and Line Abreast''' has 60% FS protection, the rate of triggering the shield are '''18.32% (Normal) and 25.26% (Big SL)'''
(''CF4 and CF2 in combined fleet might be equivalent to Line Ahead and Double Line respectively, but no data proved this yet, take this claim with a grain of salt'')
(''CF4 and CF2 in combined fleet might be equivalent to Line Ahead and Double Line respectively, but no data proved this yet, take this claim with a grain of salt'')
In practical use, especially during event, '''it's ill-advised to put searchlight on FS''' due to the potential of triggering this shield where the other girls could have stood alone and shot the enemies instead of taking bullets for the flagship and wasting a shot.
