Thant wouldn't be possible I'm afraid...I already tried it...

This optional test patch for TWoS v2.x.x will disable AI escorts ability
to detect surfaced targets with their hydrophone up until late 1942/early 1943 at which point most of in-game escorts will be equipped with on board radar anyway.
This addon should make early war night surface engagements somewhat easier and more realistic.
Enable it with your JSGME in bunker and continue campaign.

I tried the following:
Disabled reworked abilities and using the original abilities I upgraded my motorman to reduce recharge ability max (which should be 50%) tested both and no change. NOTHING CHANGED. I changed the spec ability value to -90 and nothing the recharge takes 24 hours from 10% in all values. What a shame ubisoft fooling your buyers with a non working upgrade....

In SH3 to reduce battery recharge time you had to pop up the power or rpm of your engine I dont remember which.

What did you think why I removed that ability and replaced it with one that actually works?

it's probably the same in SH5 but keep in mind that doing so you may trigger whole range of unwanted effects too...
Happy tweaking!

Heh..If it's only "one upgrade"...

Just for informational purposes, campaign transfer failed twice before being successful on the third try.

I tried to reduce range submerged but recharge time does not go bellow 7 hours even at 30 km range at 4 knots compared to stock 78km

Good and thanks..What is you KSD commander nick? Current merit?
I need to check something

[HW3]

Heinrich Whetsel, I am ranked number 74 on the merit list at 8580.

I was playing with recharge times I could get to the hystorical range of 160 km with 11 hours of recharge time. Does anyone know the hystorical recharge time for u boat batteries?

My guestimation would be that 4-6 hours at least that is what I read about british submarines in a book. It is so anoying that recharge time is so much srewed up in SH5.

About 8h from almost empty to full... 160km with 11h to recharge sounds quite good. At what speed? Which values have you changed?

Not only in Sh5, sim controllers are pretty much the same in all SH games...

Thanks...I can see from your log that ingame campaign/flotilla transfer radio messages have helped you in your campaign transfer...

[HW3]

Yes I followed their instructions and they helped alot!

P.S. The new dial glass looks real nice in the game!

Attention, totally rookie question
How can I "inform" the BDU that I have sight contact with the polish task force in the first mission 2.9.1939? How can I send the report?
