Please help with unfortunate periscope problem

the bush wookie · 07-31-15, 06:31 PM

So I play with weapons officer auto target on, planning on turning it off when I get better, but I have encountered a problem. Whenever I left-click to stop moving my periscope, the mouse immediately clicks the fire button and I usually waste a torpedo. I am running GWX 3.0 with all of these mods installed
GWX VIIC41 player sub
GWX merged campaign
GWX enhanced damage effects
GWX 16km atmosphere
GWX merged campaign
GWX no medals on crew
GWX das boot main menu movie mod
Thomsens sounds
GWX integrated orders
and a u boat skin mod and a das boot music mod

If anyone can help me with this that would be awesome

That often happens when there is also another mod for widescreen resolutions applied to the game. Then the mousecursor is released to the fire button location and accidentally fires the torpedo when clicking.

This thread covers the same issue:

Frau Kaleun has a link to disable the fire-button, forcing you to fire with only CTRL-Enter.

Or use a GUI mod that is made specifically for widescreen resolutions.
