Thank You very much for the answer. So I was playing the game a bit wrong - always got to the patrol grid, get it done - roam freely to get "kills" and then return to base by my own.

I recall that once I've got "patrol this area for 96h" 4 times in a row in the same patrol, so I just ignored it. Will check that today.

Again - thank you for your answer and patience.

what you experience ("patrol this area for 96h" 4 times in a row) is a result of your radioing to HQ AFTER you've completed a Primary Objective. There is some AI behind the radio message and you can be "ordered" to another objective. this appears to be what you have experienced.

if you do not want extra objectives, then fulfill the primary objective and go hunting on your own. stay away from the radio. (lol)

Hi
I've got a question about attack periscope.

I find this mod's Periscope has 1.5 and 6.1 zoom levels.
But I heard historical zoom levels are 1.5 and "6.0".

Which is right?
And if I fix from 6.1 to 6.0, RAOBF will be doesn't work? (I'm using RAOBF to get target speed and range.)

Thanks.

in truth, i have adjusted the zoom levels and also use auto targeting and i have never experienced faulty guidance/aiming/whatever.
if i had effed it up, auto targeting would have been affected.
i say, go for it.
do you know how to change the periscope zoom levels?

OK.

To edit zoom levels...
In SH3diter, Data/Library/cameras.dat/114 Node Dummy Cam Periscope/optical/zoom levels/[1]←Edit here.

Right?

I can't seem to find a version of LAA around. I've tried to run this mod but I keep getting a CTD.

Can do a simple browser search using Large address aware download, as your base key words in that search... is late & am headed for bed... am sure another can more likely point out a d/l link...

Hey sorry if this is a dumb question but I've been trying to do a career in the Type XXIII and I've noticed that the snorkel actually doesn't ventilate the ship which defeats part of the purpose of the snorkel and makes using the Type XXIII really awkward considering it was meant to operate primarily underwater. I thought the maybe it was just a bug with that ship and tried the Type XXI only to have the same issue. I'm not sure if its just with these two ships or really any other German submarine that also has a snorkel on it as well. I think I might just be doing something wrong however which is why I'm here asking. I've also noticed that on the Type XXIII and XXI I can't use the snorkel at periscope depth which I'm pretty sure I should. In fact in the XXI I can only use the snorkel if I'm surfaced!

firstly, welcome to subsim.

secondly, the snorkel can be used to run the diesels only. it will not refresh the CO2. it is a design flaw by Ubi.
not sure why the type 21 snorkel will not work properly. i'll look into that.
