Hello everyone,

i am a new player an have problems with fighter attacks.
The fighter will often not attack and shot back.

The info in the weapon allocation window:
"Can not fire. Weapon cannot engage this target for another 584,2 Sec. (OODA loop limitation)"
(or xxx,x Sec ...)

What means this, and how can i attack at once ???
Waiting is not an option for me.

Greetings
van Mop

Sorry, but this pilots are "fired" (wordplay ;-), there are useless :-(
