damage ship smoke

[Sniper450]

Iam using tm 1.4 since i dont have the uboat add on. The smoke from damaged ships is flowing horizontally. Is there afix for this?

Does it happen every time? I remember seeing smoke going almost horizontally on some occasions but I thought it was caused by strong wind.

i wish i was better at sinking ships so i could see more examples :oops: but so far all have had that horizontal smoke.

Maybe you could try the Submarine School - Torpedo Attack. That's hard to miss. See if it's still horizontal.

I seem to have missed the tm part. Still happens in 1.5 though.

My guess is that it's the wind speed. If you click on the weather report, if it says winds 14 meters per second, that's just over 50 kph winds. I think I may make a meters/second to kph conversion chart as I tend to check the wind speed often.:hmmm: Maybe add a meters/second to mph chart for the Americans.

If I ever get around to it.:O:

Sometimes there's a discrepancy between the apparent speed of the smoke and the existing wind and you can see almost horizontal smoke on a calm sea. After searching around the forum it appears it's an old bug.

Hmm too bad. It looks odd. Oh well. Thank you all so much for the help.
