Wow...

For planes, it helps to know where to look. Follow the plane to a position where you think you have its bearing on the Nav Map. Go to Free Camera then Pause the action. Look in the general area of the planes relative bearing to the sub. If the plane is not visible...try the Zoom feature. You may try to "move" into the general area of the plane to see if you can find it. Their small and hard to find but the closer the plane gets, the better the chance of finding it in mid-air.
I have not ever tried to pause the playback, and then move, and I don't know why... I'll have to try that. I have moved between a couple of battlewagons duking it out in the game, and it really is quite impressive hearing the shells whistle back and forth.

It does not in this particular Single Mission that I did, and I don't recall it doing it in the Campaign files I've noodled around in and have gotten sunk by airplanes...

Testing Beta26, I have this "polygonal" hats in my officers:



I didn't have this effect in FOTRS 13 or FOTRS v2. Does some user have this graphic problem?...
I have not had that, but it definitely is ~very~ interesting... We'll have to figure out how you managed to get that... In addition to the chrome and rivet brim (hat), is that a blank scan line on the display, about halfway between the hat and the text box up top, or do you get that all the time?

Do you want to package that up, do a ReadMe with credits for everybody, and release it as an FotRS Ultimate add-on mod? We'll be doing similar with Bleiente's version in a few weeks...

... and "Thank you" for helping out.
