Let's say I start a patrol on 1 Jun 40. It will load a file in the folder SH3 Commander/Date/19400601. I patrol until 5 Jun 40, then save and quit the game completely. Lets say I have a file in SH3 Commander/Date/19400604. I run SH3 Commander and start the game again. Which file is it supposed to load? 19400601 or 19400604? |

The only way around this is by ensuring that all the files are named exactly the same but placed in different date folders. If the information is no longer valid, you'll need to overwrite it with a completely blank file, e.g if I have created an image.jpg file that I no longer need, I can replace it with another file named image.jpg or I need a completely empty jpeg file called image.jpg.

What it is doing in this case: It is only loading the files from 19400601 and not the files from 19400604. Why? |

I honestly don't know, unless it's something to do with the date that SH3 loads vs. the date that your patrol starts. When you load through SH3 Commander, does the date in Cmdr show 5 Jun 1940?

All it says is for the date is "After Sunday June 2, 1940." Technically I started the patrol on 2 Jun, but it shouldn't make any difference as that is still before 4 Jun.

I agree with you though - I don't think that SH3 Commander reads dates mid-patrol but I also don't see this as an issue. You wouldn't be sent new charts mid-patrol but would continue to receive radio messages, which seems to fit in with what you are trying to achieve and improves the realism of your mod. By the way - WAD?

What I am going to do is set up my JSGME such that I can add in the necessary files based on the current date of the patrol myself. That way my orders will always be up to date. There is just a lot of info on there that I would really like to have in game, which was the original point. We are working on a German version right now. When I release that I will update the readme to reflect the issues with SH3 Commander. Quote:

WAD - now I get it!
One potential way around the SH3 Commander problem is to have orders in the Date folder one month before they are to be implemented (I know of few people who have more than month-long patrols). You could then change the visible tab to say 'Kaleun Eyes only, not before 6 Jun 1941' or similar. That way they can 'open' their orders when they receive the radio message on the correct date. Suboptimal, but workable...

If you are talking about editing the Torpedo.sim file, you need to use something like Silent 3ditor, and then edit property 19 which is for the TII. In the property tree under Speeds [1] it has an entry for [0], expand that and you can edit the range of the torpedo. I hope this helps! |

Hello rudewarrior
It confused me, I have in all Torpedo.sim type=II range=3000 and speed=28. Also in my original backup. If this is not the stock value? |
