Default freighters and troop transports

Hey guys.

Let me start by telling you guys how much im loving learning and developing my skills with the use of this fantastic community here at subsim.com

Ive got a question for you aces out there.

Its my 2nd patrol in a S class sub and im having difficulty locating troop transports. My objective is too sink one and also cant find freighters. Its may 19th 1942 and im currently heading north through makassar strait towards celebes sea. I plan to bypass sulu sea through china sea and try my luck over at luzon strait and formosa strait by taipei.

Any ideas

Cheers

Dambuster

When asking questions it is important to list your game version and mods list in order to get more detailed and accurate responses.

Some mods will populate better and more accurate shipping traffic making hunting them down a bit easier.

Welcome! From what I have read, that is a good place to look. It does depend upon your mod set-up

What version you use of TMO will be dictated by the Version of the game your playing. TMO is written for 1.4 and 1.5 with or without RSRD.

What is your GAME version?

Welcome aboard, Dambuster!

If you use RSRDC, you should be sent to an appropriate area. That does not mean that it is easy to locate targets, or that you will always have plenty, but searching and waiting are part of the game.
