The Captains bunk?

[Enchanter]

Well, the gramophone thread grew a life of it's own, ;) but now my next brain tickler. Anyone have clue what the actual point of the Captains bed is?

[Abd_von_Mumit]

To rest I think. :)

And to invite the ladies if there were some on any sunk merchant ship you have taken the rescuees from. Isn't every Kriegsmarine officer a gentleman? (in a Germanic style, of course, not English-Schmienglisch! ;) ).

Where else am I to store my Playboy magazines/cigars/booze?

If you're using GWX, look under the bed. ;)

[Abd_von_Mumit]

In Polish we have a joke about officer's bed (a word-play I'll try to translate):
— What does an officer have under his bed?
— An officer has to clean up under his bed, sir!

And another one, impossible to translate, but I'll try to explain… It's just so funny:
— An officer looks under his bed in the morning and what does he see?
— His 'morning shoes', sir! [those you put on when awaken and going to bath or so.]
But the second sentence means literally also:
— His shoes wounded, sir!

If you pull back the covers on the bed you'll find an Easter Egg.

And if you play chicken with a DD at flank speed they'll always get out of your way.

Under my bed are still a couple cases of "Becks". If you drank all of yours, tough s---. You can't have mine. :arrgh!: ;)

No sharing then:oops: :oops: Oh well we'll get ours see if we care. We'll call the Navy Dudes and have a Party on our own without inviting you. That will teach you. You will miss all the fun;) :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[AVGWarhawk]

Actually under the bed is an inflatable datable with all holes in right places. Now we know why we have compressed air in the uboat. She gets passed around from time to time.:o

Now let's get the drinks and start the party:D :D :rotfl:

[Iron Budokan]

I'm gong to hang a disco ball in the command room for the boys and put down a mirror floor. Par-tay!

[Iron Budokan]

I suppose we could put some frilly ribbons on the dive planes as well, kind of spruce up the boat a bit. Hmm....that might fox the English radar come to think of it.

Well, we all know what the pole is the 1st officer is always hanging on too. The boys do some pole dancing for dollars every now and then. The disco ball really adds atmosphere.

Good God...

The Captain's cabin in SHI had a calendar, a radio log and a ship ID book. Each version since has had less and less.

Thats fine if there is less because I do not spend any time there at all!

Someone was working on some new textures for this room. I had seen a few shots but that was a while ago. None since!

Yeah first time I went to the captains cabin I tried to click on the book that's stored on the cupboard door, thought it might be the KTB, guess it was planned as the arrow turns red, but nothing happens when you click on it.

[Sailor Steve]

Of course you can click on the bunk itself and lie there watching the radioman do his job.

I believe there is a lot of things that were not finished in the game. From what I understand there are a lot of voice files not used:cry:

[LeafsFan]

I have always thought that the bed was real stupid.

If you do a shift + F2 you can kind of look inside that cabinet and see there are books inside, but no way to get at them.

I don't think the bed is stupid. What else should be there, a tethered goat? I can imagine the collective scream from bubbleheads (myself included) if a bed wasn't modeled there.

A bed is what was there on the real uboats so it's fine by me.:yep:

[LeafsFan]

I hear you, but I am not interested in counting bed bugs;)

If you're using GWX, look under the bed. ;)

How do you do that?

[mookiemookie]

I believe the interior free look command is shift+F12 (maybe ctrl+F12? someone will correct me, I'm sure). Just don't try going too far into the aft or fore of your boat or you'll crash the game.

Yep, there's also a safe in there.

I think the bed could have been great for a "player fatigue" part of the game. The longer a player continues without "sleeping" the more delayed responses to his orders would be etc. The player can nap on the bed and time would whip by really quickly (way faster than maximum TC) but if some kind of event or sighting occurs it "wakes" the player and gives a 10-20 second delay before you can command a response. Or maybe the player could set responses to certain events with his officiers on watch so they take automatic action. The better the officiers, the better and faster their responses. Leave the boat in the hands of the midshipman while you nap in enemy waters and you wake up dead.:)

The possibilities are endless; hell you can even have weird dreaming images that float across the screen while you nap - ships going down, depth charge attacks and girls you "met" in the Reeperbahn.:88)

Now that is a great idea. That would really add to the immersion level of the game.

It's Shift + F2 isn't it?

I was close, wasn't I? ;) Yes, it is shift+F2

[Jazer]

I just figured it out after about an hour of tinkering with the controls. And now I am so disappointed because I can't have one!

[Cap.Palla]

maybe someone could make a mod that allow to see a playboy calendar in the bed....and the moon phases off course :lol:

[Kruger]

Bed is good. Bed is always good, wheter you sleep, watch movies or do some hanky-panky, which is not the case aboard a respectable Kriegsmarine U-Boot, unless Bernard gets some stockings .. :shifty::shifty::shifty:

Steady on there Steve !! :o

Let's not be giving any of these young kaleuns any wayward ideas :lol:

I can just imagine the sonar mans next diary entry!
"The Kaleun keeps lying on the bed and staring at me... it makes me nervous. Then again, we have been at see for two weeks..."

yea, well, who cares for a calendar and books as long as you have BECK´S BEER under your bed!!!:rotfl::arrgh!:

:rotfl:

Next Sonar mans entry, Week 4, the captain keeps dropping things on the floor and asking me to bend over and pick them up. I find this very odd as he always says, 'Oh boy" when I retrieve whatever he has dropped.:o

He should be glad and thankful that the captain doesn't order him to wash all the boat floors on his knees. ;)

[Sailor Steve]

If you're referring to the cases of beer, they're in the stock game. If there's something else there in GWX you'll have to tell me because I can't play for the foreseeable future.

Yep. Wasn't sure if that was a stock SH3 thing or not. Ah well.

@Sailor Steve: Why, what´s up, why can´t you play? Always considered you one of the hardcore subsimmers! The Atlantic needs you!:arrgh!:

Cheers, AS

I (http://I) haven't played anything since July.

I keep my bunny slippers, teddy bear and my Toad Hall jammies under the bed :rotfl:

[AVGWarhawk]

I keep nothing under there.....this is where I hide during DC attacks ;) sucking my thumb and calling out for my mommy.

[Jimbuna]

Personally speakin.....I don't particularly care what's under there just so long as it aint a 'golden rivet' :rotfl: :rotfl:

[TarJak]

Before GWX it was the only place other than the map at high TC where I could clearly hear the Grammophone. GWX seems to have made the diesels a bit quieter so I don't need to go there anymore.

Would have been nice to see some of the old SH1 features like calendar with moonphases, sunrise, sunset times etc and the log. Couldn't have been that much more work. Cest la Guerre!

No kidding.
This is really a shame. The captain's cabin needs a calander, a clicky for a typeable log, and clickys for charts, ID books, etc.
The cabin needs to be a place that has a point, besides putting yourself there while using the head in r/l.

Tudley,
