As of v0.1 (readme)

Welcome to Krauters Automated Scripts v0.1


This is my first try at a Mod and hopefully will help me expand to bigger and better ideas.

Seeing the unlimited possibilities that the Automation Function of TDW's NewUIs Mod opened up made me stop and think that I could maybe help contribute to teh community by writing and developping scripts to use in tandem with his Mod.

Following in this Mod are 8 scripts.

The first 4 (Emergency Evasion Tactics family) Revolve around the fact that if your sub is suddenly in the grip of Asdic. You run this script to hopefully get out of that Sonar coverage and run quietly to safety. The difference between Tactics 1 through 4 is that Tactics 1 and 2 involve a Knucle to Port (Tactic 1) or Starboard (Tactic 2). Tactics 3 and 4 add the feature of going deeper and firing off decoys (if available) with another turn Starboard (Tactic 3) or Port (Tactic 4)

Following the Emergency Evasion Scripts is the Evasion Script (I know generic names.. any help naming functions or if you see something better just let me know!) Are for when you know that you've just done something that will lead you to being detected, or are in a situation where there is a high probability you will be detected. The first is the Post Torpedo Launch, Escorts Present. As the name implies it is to be used after you've fire a torpedo, or a spread be it the case, and gets you to a deeper depth and a sufficient distance away from the point where you fired the torpedo. The script is designed so that you end up on the same course, just not in the same position or depth.

The second Evasion script is the Depth charge Evasion script. Basically a short evasion script used to get away from depth charges if you are a deep enough depth (75M+).

The Next script is the Pre-Surface Actions. Basically what it does is instead of doing all the little cautionary steps necessary to surface out of harms way yourself, this Script does it for you. Basically makes you do two spiral turns port and then starboard to check your baffles with Hydrophones and then comes up to Periscope depth to do a quick sweep of the Observation Periscope before surfacing and resuming course at Ahead Standard.

Finally the last Script, and one, I hope, will be most usefull to people, is the Hydrophone Bearing Plotter Script which, combined with the Hydrophone Plotter Utility by Gutted, will help you plot the Contacts Course, Speed, AOB and help you plot an intercept course based on the information gathered.

Please forgive me if you spot any problems in the Scripts.

This is my first attempt to Mod the game

If you see anything that needs tweaking or changing or fixing. Do me a favor and Please! Do not hesitate to PM me or post in this thread the problem that you see. I will do my best to fix the problem and get the script working properly.

Also, if anyone has any suggestions for scripts to be added, or any historical data that could help me find new ideas, don't hesitate to post it here or PM me

Cheers,

Krauter

My better half, would like a script that turns SH5 off after X hours.

[Krauter]

fortunately for you're Kaleun half I don't think I could create a script with that capability

[Trevally.]

Thanks Krauter

Hi Krauter

I tried your mod and it works fine except the pre surface automation it is set to go peri depth and then uses obs scope but to use obs scope you have to go to snorkel depth otherwise the scope wont go above the water line

Great idea. Thanks.

How about a script that takes care of the crew morale? I get tired of touring the boat and doing the same old chat to try and keep them happy.

Can you script something for the AA gunners to react automatically?

Your instructions readme give information but it doesn't say how to implement the scripts.

I have installed it with Jonesoft's Mod enabler, but nothing is available in the interface to activate anything.

Kindly explain.

press the 'gears' icon on the top left bottom bar to bring up Automation (you have to be using my UIs mod to get Automation). You should be able to figure it out from there.

I don't know. For some reason you can be sarcastic with people. If I want to find out how yours works, I have to 'find the original' and read that. If I'm too lazy to do that...

Lazy? What about attitude? Why do something halfway?
