"Radio tower" command will give you a bearing to your nearest (active) stationary radio beacon/transmission. The beacons are marked on your nav map. It can also pick up other radio transmissions from enemy and friendly ports but . The feature is quite useful when trying to find to your way to port in foggy weather with real navigation.

and two unclear maps that do not have a tool tip.

So what exactly do they do?


Sorry if this has been answered somewhere else.

Thanks for pointing out there was a way to change the waiting time between patrols. Just saying, the lowest you can get is 7 days, with still a max of 28 days. So it will be somewhere between these two.

Probably the last question before I am going to stream tomorrow: Does Scapa Flow have realistic docking dates for the ships there? As I got lucky I will be able to attack Scapa Flow still in September, so the Iron Duke, the Nelson, the Royal Oak, the Norfolk and several other ships could be there. This would be pretty cool of course.

Anyway, a huge THANK YOU for your patience.^^ Should have read the guide more thoroughly.

Hi tegula. JSGME files are only for additional mods that change parts of the main mod. The main mod is already installed completely and you only need to start the game.

That doesn't look right mate. Try to remove "read only" attributes from your main SH5 install folder and run the game with full administration rights.

Default Draaging nav/TAI compass circles

Hi folks!


I am getting back into the SH experience, and re-learning all I knew back in SH3, but with SH5 and TWoS. Part of this is the 4-bearing method, and getting ship data from hydrophone readings.


The method used to be that you measured the distance between 1st and 2nd bearing on a bisecting line with the compass, then dragged the circle over to find exact sme distance from the 2nd bearing line to a point on which you drew a line parallel to the 1st bearing.



But I can't for the life of me get my compass circles to drag! Am I missing something? Can you still do this?



Thanks


Chris

Yeah that is what i thought. Already tried read only and full administration rights. Going to attempt a complete reinstall. There were multiple places were i felt like text was missing, so im guessing it was/is some sort of language file not being read correctly from the mod. I will write if the reinstall changes anything.

What is your install location by the way? I guess you use win10?
