i put two additional sonartarget controllers in the ship's
.dsd, one for prop and one for the engine.

updated for all major mods.

i'm sorry to say that the current version leads to a
crash if you listen to a sinking ship on the sonar.

to be a little more accurate it only happens if you continue to listen to a sinking ship going down so to avoid the ctd just switch to your next target or another station

vickers03 · 04-10-09, 12:49 PM

updated.
no more crashes as far as i've tested.
please report any problems or improvement suggestions.

btw, this mod has no influence on how the sonar man
is hearing ships, this still depends on his skills.

are you planning to update the mod for the new ships added in FOTRS and RSRDC?

Hi,
Little confused...at the top of this thread you say there's no need for this fix if Websters Maneuvering is installed, but on the download page it says recommended if Web. Maneuv. is used.

Am I reading these wrong or do they not match up?

(installed web. man. fix last night and in a convoy found that though I could hear say ships at 5 different bearings myself from the sonar station, the sonar operator would only report ships on 3 bearings. Is this what this fix is meant to, amm, fix?)

Thanks

it means that it is already included in websters maneuver.

with this fix the sonar operator is still as good as his
experience allows but you will hear everything the
sonar device has to offer.

Is this needed for RFB 2.0? (You list 1.52 above)
