It would be pretty awesome to have a script for controlling periscope vertical angle by keys precisely.

There is nothing so annoying like when you have no time and you can make it to put it on waterline to use stadimeter.

Real navigation should disallow to show destroyed marks as they reveals my current position

I'm playing with full realism. How do i accurately plot reported convoy positions with the map grid resolution so low? Is there a button that enables tickmarks for minutes and seconds?

sorry to say but that mod is not compatible with the latest version of TWoS like Vecko said is outdated .....

You can do it as accurate as real Kaleun could.
By plotting lat-long coordinates to your map from radio message and roughly expecting their course by rough information (SSE, or NNW,...).

I did this exactly last weekend and since i expected their speed as 10kts max, i waited under water listening for their noise...

And they came nearly as i expected (little luck), i calculated their course and speed by available information and could shadow them till the night.
Unfortunately it was really harsh weather and i did not hit anyone :-?

I agree , but it's not possible...I tried everything ...:hmmm:

In my opinion, "precision" is a term which doesn't go hand in hand with WW2, although some kind of transparent and resizable chart with detailed minutes and seconds tickmarks would be useful... Something like Sjizzle's detailed grid chart, but for minutes and seconds...:hmm2:

No, there isn't any mark for minutes and seconds, but knowing that in SH world 1 degree of latitude is equal to 120 km (exactly, no matter what latitude you are at), 1 minute and 1 second are equal to 2 km and 33 m respectively, measured on the map . :03:

I agree :)


That's a good idea :up:

That game is nearly so hardcoded as IE6! :)

Exactly that i was expecting before about 2 days

what charts do u need ???

IMO a 60 x 60 thickmarks (vertical x horizontal) scale grid would be okay. Supposing a spacing of 20 pixels between two marks, such a grid would have a resolution of 1200 by 1200 pixels. If you wanted to further split minutes in seconds, the resulting grid should be 18,000 x 18,000 pixels if you wanted to use a spacing of just 5 pixels between two adjacent marks. Way too big and not accurate at all! :o :doh:

The same principle like lightgrid for latlong minutes would be enough for me.
so 60*60.

With this i could just overlay it above map square get pencil, hide it by "E" and mark position.

oky i will make on tonight but there is a easy way for the minutes :D each 1 degree on the map is 120km so each 2km is 1 min :D

:up:


U-FlaK thread is up...http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=224498

do u mean something like this one ? or u wanna divided / minutes this one is for each 10 min divided if u wish for each min let me know

Awesome! Thanks! :)

This should be enough.

The next thing is i would disallow to let player avatar to leave tower if certain wind conditions are not met. (+ deckgun teleport)

Right now i could go to deckgun, order crew just behind big wave, move gun slightly, next time again, and again... and finaly shoot even in 15m/s wind.
I would be in the atlantic in 10 seconds :)

Going outside in these conditions would fix it best, as it would fix even outside walking in waves.

If this is not possible, disabling ordering crew to deckgun should be enough.

Again , I couldn't agree more. Ideas are not lacking, the problem is "how"...
This should be possible only if we disable whole range of gunners NewUIs commands and not many people will salute this idea.

For now you should 'resist' the temptation to use deck gun in heavy seas...
