Hello everybody, I'm pretty new to SH4 but I played SH3 more long time ago. I got U-Boat addon so that is I'm only playing. I am only using Pacific Enviroments Mod (when I get to port I wanna install TMO) and I have some question about many things:

1. How can I get the gyroangle from the american version to U-Boat version?(I like how is showing the position of the sub from the ship I wanna sink when looking thru my periscope)

2. What torpedoes are better to use?

3. The missions from a patrol never ends? I mean I am on my first patrol and I got 261.640 total tonnage sunk until now (tankers 17, cargo 30, warships 7) and I am still receiving missions, patroling and sinking. When can I go to finish my patrol? I mean is there is a point when I will get the mission to get back in port?

4. How can I make my crew to get more experience? With all that tonnage that I sunk my crew got little experience and I think it will take a lot of time for them to get a new rank.

5. Can any of my crew gain a special ability? or I have to recruit one that is having?

6. How can I find those bigs battleships? I wanna try to sink one, good renew points for sinking one. I only finded Attacker Escort Carriers (I got 3 of those to sleep with the fishies), Kent Heavy Cruisers and more little ones.

7. How can I improve my ruler drawings from the navigation map? I am spending at least 10 minutes for drawing that line correct for a good intercept but allways I have to change course in last minute.

That is all for now, I'm sorry if are answers for many of this questions but I didn't finded them. I'm sure there are more noobs like me out there and they will find answers for all this very usefull (for me will sure be) and I hope somebody will find some time to answer to them.

Thank you verry much
