This mod is awesome. Looks great when you see the ship tilt over before she goes down.

Can somebody explain what is "HP" ?

(besides Hewlett Packard...

)

Arclight · 11-23-11, 02:04 PM

Hitpoints, fairly standard way in games in general to measure "health" of something.

In this case, a torpedo's "damage" needs to overcome the compartment's "health" for it to take on water. The ship has total HP as well, which when depleted simply causes the ship to sink/be destroyed, regardless of flooding.

Say, for example, a torpedo does 10 points of damage, a compartment has 10 points of health, and the ship in general has 50 points: 1 torpedo will always cause flooding in the stricken compartment, and the ship will be "dead", regardless of flooding, after 5 hits (5 torpedoes for 50 points of damage total).

Note though that this mod is effectively obsolete, unless you're not using TDW's overhaul.

Oh... I thought it was some special "shiping meaning"...

Not exactly. I never finished updating the damage/flooding model for the warships in FX_Update. Someone took the changes I did do and merged them with what you did for the warships and released it. Everyone seems pretty happy with it

Arclight · 11-23-11, 06:27 PM

Ah, that's good to hear. I've been trying to get myself to to continue on it, but I really can't find the motivation for it. Ubi with their DRM, and then dropping support for SH5... some resentment settled in.

this mod is awsome

I'm obviously late to the show, having only bought SH5 a couple of weeks ago, but this is to my mind one of the fabled "must haves". Good job!
