What do you mean with "cocktail" ?

i read somewhere that they used to count the cocktails... it is a sort of a drink made by mixing stuffs like... alchool, soda etc... or maybe Trevally told me that he use for this ... i do not remember well
Yes i saw in das boot that they used also to count the bearings when they were attacked by the DDs. But personally i do not use

Why you need the time zone and where you use the information about the Sun and Moon in the sh5?

Yes, I know that a cocktail is a alcohol drink, but why is the name of the chalkboard "This is an Uboat cocktail...." ? Why in this context "cocktail" ?

I need the time zone and the dates of moon- and sun rising and -sunset to plan my attacks on convoys, that I know for example when is night (= dark = good for start the attack) and is this a bright night, because the moon is shining or a dark night because the moon is not shining...and so on. And from what for a side I start the attack, for example the moon behind my sub or behind the merchant ships....!

Okay, in german language, but better than nothing...!

Das ist etwa MO nicht TDW UI, aber ja.. es ist besser als nichts. Vielen dank.

Actually I try to figure out the relation between the real nav and the chalkboard. This topic is just too big and searching for info is a real pain.

I had read that in SH4 they managed to import Stellarium.. is that true or I was missunderstand things?

Maybe you´ve right, but means this really the drinks that counted, or is "cocktail" in this context only another word for "water bombs" that comes from an DD and these bombs were counted on a chalkboard (similiar as in reallife) ?

dunno magic1111.. i will ask trevally... i do not count the wasserbomben with chalckboard... i use the sound from stormys sound colection for that... i reworked the mod a bit and i increased the the probability that the waserbomben are reported by sonnar guy at 100%

Usually I tend to get things working OK, but for some reason I have never been able get the Destroyed marks working that TDW introduced in 6.4.0 Test 5 (I think it was).

In the Nav map options screen I have no option to select/deselect the Destroyed marks. It is missing.
When I sink a ship there is no sunk ship mark on the map like in earlier days. At the sinking spot nothing remains visible on the map, it's empty. The sunk ship is recorded in the captain's log, though.

What is required to get the Destroyed marks working? Is there some special setting(s) in the UsersOptions.py file? Anything else? Ship's Journal?
I feel so dumb abt this.

If you have real nav or an add-on mod installed of mine you may be missing these marks. The destroyed marks that you are referring to only appear when you load a saved game so you can see where you 'killed' ships. The stock game never showed these past kills on a game load.

But the file that comes with UI 6.4.0 has a newer Time-Stamp ! So what for an file / Add-On should we use, when we your UI 6.4.0 and IRAI use (the "No_hydrophone_on_surface_No_Aircraft_spotting from UI 6.4.0 or from IRAI 030) ?

Hi TDW !

When I have the big Map-Tools in UserOptions.py enabled, the Super-Mark Pencil doesn´t work for me ?!

See the screenshot please, I click with the left Mouse Button on the pencil and nothing happened !



Can you check this please ? Any solution ?

Best regards,

it's working. When you click the pencil you have enabled the supermark to be placed. Click on the map to set the supermark. Same goes for the navigational fixes.
