Many thanks for the tips :up:

Hope you’ll find something on observation periscopes.
It’s kind of weird to have to go on attack one to have better view. Actually, i almost never use the observation one because of that :wah:
Wish you the best for this work :salute:

Actually yes...Open submarine upcge file and find following UpgradePackSlot
section:

Change red part to NULL and you won't have any RWR on board until you request the upgrade from your flotilla mechanic in the bunker. In the campaign, "Metox" will become available few months before his historical date in order to simulate new and somewhat expensive test equipment.
However, you'll have to restart new campaign in order for changes to take place and boats in single missions wont have any RWRs.

I may use some of this new settings in the next update for TWoS as well...Nicely spotted.:yep:

It seems that the attack scope was longer indeed...:yep:

Also better night capabilities of obs/sky scope can be nicely simulated with available gamma filters...

Ok then... :up:
On loading game, we have pictures with small text underneath.
One of them is saying we can use the observation periscope to have better view around due to its higher view... :timeout:
Guess it’s wrong then.

I guess it means higher elevation of view. The observation periscope allows you to look almost directly upwards to scan for planes

Would it be possible to add a game mechanic where if you dive while loading an external torpedo, the torpedo is lost?

I got caught on the surface by aircraft while loading an external torpedo. I fought it out for a bit but eventually had to dive. I figure that if I did that in real life, the torpedo and all the equipment needed to load it would be swept away, but I still had it, so I had to “fix” it by getting rid of an already loaded torpedo.

Can i disable this while on patrol, or only in bunker?

I ask because after i did on patrol, i had my first CTD... at the second my torpedo was about to hit a tanker :timeout:
Reloaded save, and again CTD when was launching torpedoes...
Had to restart from bunker save to avoid CTDs (and i re-activated the Collateral Damage)

I don't think so, no...That's why I always do my external torpedoes during the calm nights and at full stop, just like they really did it... :yep:


Strange...:hmmm: Try in the bunker but make sure not to delete your bunker gamesave before you disable the col.damage patch...


What do you guys think? Will this loading screen with the additional note be helpful for lazy Captains who do not bother to read install instructions? :hmm2:

Hi Vecko
Most definitely useful information. :up:
