⚙ Mechanics Update

"Confirmation of enemy fleet formation to some extent" before selecting battle formation:

When meeting with an enemy fleet, it will be possible to see the first three ships of the enemy fleet before selecting the battle formation.
- Only when there is an enemy fleet near the allied fleet.
- This does not apply against air nodes.
To use it:

Click the flagship girl on the left side of the screen before selecting the fleet formation,
Clear the formation selection UI by clicking the operation area again,
After that, click on the node and the fleet will be partially shown on the side.

This:
- Do not show the detailed information of the enemy fleet composition ship,
- Do not show the information of all enemy fleets.

Smoke Generators:

Using one can negate enemy attacks, unless they are equipped with radars
The more Smoke Generators are equipped, the more successful the deployment and effective the smoke screen will be.
Smoke screen deployment may fail.
Exercises are not included in the advanced implementation.
Effects may be updated in a later update.
A new UI element has been added to activate the smoke screen.
It may be activated only once per sortie yet.
