[REL] Yamato playable (beta)

[tomhugill]

Hey folks , here for your surface ship playing pleasure is a fully functioning fully damage modeled (almost ) playable version of the IJN Yamato.

First off I take no credit for getting her initially playable , I have mearly alltered the systems and given her a working damage model , with out further ado!








Damage screen all working

As this is a beta there are afew small niggles:

. I cant get the radar working for some reason , I 99% sure all the systems are there for it to work but for some reason it wont.
. When your engines get destroyed your top speed will decrease but you can still move
. Finally ive been having issues with flotation , Ive found that if you get much flooding you send to list more than I think you should. Anyone with expertise in this area and is willing to help let me know.

Anyway Have fun with her and please PM me or reply here with any feed back , ideas etc. Cheers Tom

Version 1.1!

Hey guys ive been doing alot of testing and with help for the guys here on the sub sim forums (esp. Mikyal) Ive managed to get a much more realistic flooding mechanic.

You sink much more slowly.
Flooding times have been increased and will affect you less than before (fixing the if you flood you sink issue)
Ive changed the zone file to flooding is only effected by the 3 compartments that you can see , engine room , lower decks and radio room. Hopefully this should give you a better idea of how badly your flooding.
The radar issue has now been fixed!

I have changed the way you take damage trying to make the ships eventual demise based on sinking rather than loss of hull hp , to this end i have made the hull hp very large and made the crush depth low, so once you sink you will die quickly

Planned changes:

Im hoping to add more compartments to the ship so an even better flooding representation can be achived , as well as more realistic systems and things such as damageable fuel tanks , and possibly magazines

Version 1.15!

Hey folks , new version out with a couple of tweaks:

Firstly ive made it so it should be RFB friendly (ish) Ive been playing and not had problems ... yet :p. I recomend you play with RFB actually as the improved visual and sounds effects really add to things.

Secondly ive rebalanced the compartment flooding , I was having a problem where if the radio room flooded at the rear you when down like a tonne of bricks. Hopefully this has fixed that so you will list abit but not go down to the degree of before. Now flooding in any one compartment wont sink you but any more and you could be in for prblems unless its fixed fast!
