Many thanks and regards!

Yeah it says 1.06b in the title though. Not sure what they did between 1.06 and 1.06b but those torpedo models are new.

I think "1.06b" means a beta. Killerfish seems to put a "b" in the beta updates.

The version before was 1.06 now after a little update it's 1.06b and yes the torps are shiny new and Ai behaviour is a little more robust but I would love a full change log from these guys.

Check out the last post of this thread for the full 1.06b changelog:

For version numbers b does not mean beta.
We release a new version number, eg. 1.06 on the beta branch for testing. All subsequent updates to that version prior to release are appended with b, c, d, e etc. Once the version is released to the public (from beta), we increment to the next version, in this case 1.07.

It just so happens that to date we have only done one additional update to the beta branch prior to release, hence all released versions have a "b" on the end. If we do 2 updates it will have a "c" etc.

I'm in. After many years of absence (after the somewhat unsatisfing SH5 experience) I'm back to submarine business, bought the game last weekend.

I'm just starting, trying to get a feeling for the game and learn the controls.
The missing helm station hurts a bit, but the more direct control of the sub by using shooter like keys produces cool and much more dynamic torpedo evasive actions.

Would love to see the game develop a bit further (allied and neutral shipping), maybe even a russian campaign!

Would it not be logical to have a small % of an AI boat going too deep trying to avoid fish?

I realize that every boat captain knows this, though having a small % of a over zealous, or % of something breaking/failing during a dive?

Just a thought.
