Two Hydrophone Automation scripts

[vanjast]

Some might like to be moving while listening.
This script runs for 12 hours game time.
3 sessions of 4 hours each, coming up to refresh Oxygen and compressed air.

Some like to just hang around (like me) waiting for some action.
Same script as above, but a 24 hour session.
Usefull when you suspect ships travelling past an area.
You can sit close to airbases spring the trap on unsuspecting ships.

On any contact, the game pauses/TC=1, and the script aborts leaving you to take control.
I made it so that all you need is a pair of headphones, or roam around the house doing other things.

No licenses, no restrictions... free to do what you want.
Copy and paste into TDW '*.sha' file of your name choice.
Place in the ..../SH5/data/Automation folder

Nice and many thanks.


I will try it the next time, if I have time, if I play SH5 again.
