Are there any refueling options?

you have to go at standard speed to have the best fuel economy/range combination, if you go at speed settings of "4" or "5" you´ll run out of diesel.

pay attention to milchcows messages as Lurker says, they show as anchors in mid ocean

FYI There are Milk Cow Uboats on patrol, pay attention for messages that tell you when and where it will be

Started my campaign on 1st sept. 1940 from Lorient under 2nd flotilla.
PS. ive had about 6 Knights crosses, is this normal?

Well with a Type IX you should have no problem getting there at "Ahead Standard" [ 9kts ]. If you uses a higher speed your going to run out of gas.

Why is there such a big difference between the standard speed of SH4 (9 kts ) for all uboats and the one in SH3 (13-14 kts)? What was the real one?

I made them that way for best fuel economy/range combination.

karamazovnew · 11-15-09, 06:06 PM

Understood, I'll use the speed dial more then. It was a good idea, most of my patrols end with <10% fuel

. I've checked the rpm dial. I've always thought that because going to 12-13 kts moved the telegraph to Ahead Full, the rpm would reach 400. Instead it goes to aroun 330 which is exactly 2/3 (Standard speed). Silly me.

I see that upgrades and torpedoes are cost 0 renown, free.
Is there any way to have the prices back?
If not I swear I ill fill my uboat with falkes... and use them to sink fishing boats which are easier to sink than carriers..

I don't know if this is a feature that's been in OM for awhile or not, or if it's new in 720 but sometime around March 1942 while leaving St. Nazaire, I got swarmed by easily 20+ RAF fighters and bombers right outside of port. It reminded me of the ending of Das Boot. While I'm used to constantly evading the RAF in the general area, I wasn't expecting to see THAT many. With how shallow the water was, well, I didn't last long.

I also ran into some U-Boats near the Canadian coast doing some odd behavior. There was probably 10-20 of them, all VII boats sort of loosely grouped together sort of just milling about like the milkcows do.

The aircraft in 42 are correct and the Type 7 are part of a wolfpack

Just bought SH4 + Addon for 10 Euros and tested OpMonsun.
Good work - thank you very much.

One question: After installing OpMonsun, the game language (except of the voices) changed from german to english, so that voices now are german and the texts and tool-tips are english. how can I switch back to german?

Do you have just OM or do you have OM + OMEGU

h.sie · 11-25-09, 11:34 AM

I have both, OM + OMEGU

If you want "german" for the tool tips you can "hand edit" the OrdersBar.cfg file

h.sie · 11-25-09, 03:01 PM

Thanks!

h.sie · 11-26-09, 03:12 AM

Hello Lurker,

the reason for my problems was, that OMEGU overwrites my german menu.txt with an english one. so I removed the menu.txt from OMEGU and 99% of all texts remain in german, only a few are english.
