Paradox, ses patchs, ses hotfixs, ses développeurs.

[Benoît]

Voyons Scramouille, ces deux phrases sont strictement différentes.
Tu ne vois pas le pluriel? le "of"?

[Scramouille]

Au moins une chose est sûr la "convoy visibility of convoys" est à 12
Bon on sait pas trop si elle a monté ou baissé

[Limse]

Comme je le comprends c'est plus : la visibilité des navires convois augmente de 10 à 12 et la visibilité (par d'autres navires) des convois baisse de 13 à 12... (Enfin j'espère que c'est vraiment cela)
