1st: the UUV is shown as trawler in the sonar filter, this is because of its sonar profile wich seems to have changed?
We haven't changed anything on that.

2nd: adcap goes running straight forward after beeing fooled by a countermeasure, it is not trying to regain a target, it just keeps running the same direction like a WWII torpedo.
Spoofed torpedoes will sometimes act dumb for a time, trying to reset after a terminal homing resulting in a non-detonation on the CM. They will usually return to homing before the end of their run.

3rd: there are some massive problems in multistation wich the (DEACTIVATED!) autosonarman, he is assigning bearinglines all the time at a certain point makeing the navscreen unusable as it will go down to 1fps or even less, last time this happend i estimated about 400 bearing lines on navmap, all belonging to active sonar. in a later game we changed roles and kapitain was doing sonarwork, same happened to him but it was passive contacts that time.(probably a TMA problem tho, i dont know. tma was the only thing on auto for some time.)
Ok, so we've resolved this happens with stock DW as well, it's an interface issue, outside the parameters of anything we've changed.

4rd: there seems to be a problem in a bat file or something, most of the time databases are differrent even tho all players have 2.02 installed, this needs to be fixes really quick
i for example installes 2.02, everything worked fine. then i reveted to 1.01, everything fine. reinstalled 2.02 and got database errors and at least the baffles where NOT the 2.02 ones.
Can you give me some more details on this? I have tested this with Molon. I have also tested the install procedure, as has Amizaur.

In terms of the .bat files, this is what the install bat contains.

copy database.LwAmiMod\*.* Database\
copy doctrine.LwAmiMod\*.* Doctrine\
It's simply a command to copy everything in one folder to another folder. So there is no room for error.

I would check to be sure that your files aren't being marked "read-only". That's the only thing I can say.

I should also note, that between language or regional versions of the game, I often get database errors in stock DW.

Not that this matters, but when two people are having problems related to connections specifically between their computers, and haven't been able to reproduce this with every player, just between two people, if you could make that clear when you make a bug report and not just generally say "you're mod is broken." We DO test what we release. I am happy to help you work through your particular problems, as I am familiar with the mechanics of the game and what we have changed, so I can help a lot with solving issues, but I wouldn't release something that simply didn't work.

My suspicion here is that there is something going on with your filestructure, like a file that got marked read only file here or there, and that the database problems are between the different versions of the game. I'm not sure what DW uses to check database versions, but like I said, I've gotten database returns with the stock game and persons using other language versions.
