Changelog:

v2.0.3
- Radio Navigation: Added non directional radio beacons in axis ports which should help real nav captains to find their home ports in rough weather conditions (fog, night time ect). Request bearings from your radioman if you find your self "lost in the fog". Radio beacons will be active several hours per day once the port is captured by axis forces and their location can be seen in your nav map. (will became visible in your next campaign chapter)
- Various menu.txt tweaks in order to explain better the function of certain GUI commands.
- Various campaign fixes: Adjusted spawn cool-down days to more realistic values for sea traffic, task forces, U-boats, wolfpacks, ocean liners and other naval traffic.
- Adjusted traffic lines in orders to avoid some illogicality like allied ships traveling to ports under axis jurisdiction.
- Fixed several traffic nodes problems which could sometimes cause ships to spawn over dry land.
- New fishing boats traffic layers in Artic Convoys and Final Years campaigns.
- Adjusted misplaced and added new airplanes threat zones according to historical criteria. Occasional dogfights over Norths Sea or English Canal are now more possible.
- Automatically created desktop shortcuts for contained JSGME, Options File Editor, KSD Commander applications and a donations link for any people of good will out there.
- New icon file for TWoS installers featuring letter "W" (stands for "Wolves").
- Few more minor tweaks and fixes.

You're quite welcome mate!

Note that the same update is also included in main "The Wolves of Steel 2.0_Silent Hunter 5 Expansion Pack_Full.exe" package by default, so anyone who is installing TWoS 2.0 for the first time doesn't have to download both installers...:yep:

Hi Vecko
Changing 7-Zip to W has thrown AVG Anti-Virus into an unnecessary flap.

Some AV programs tend to show them self smarter than they actually are...It's a false alarm as you can see...

Well done Vecko! :Kaleun_Applaud:

Thanks Vecko :salute:

Thanks a lot !
Well done.

I think this update doesn't require a campaign restart and an update from 2.0.2 in patrol is all good?

Awesome!

Glad to see this Excellent Mod continuing to develop!

I started a new campaign but I can't see any directional beacon out there :-/
And my radio man has no option for bearing to beacon neither

Many thanks for the update! :salute::yeah::up:
