SH3 Where is end of map

[Captain von Keldunk]

Around the world:

In SH3 the world was kind of flat and the ships were very stubborn in not crossing the line when reaching the end of the map by turning 180 degrees. The Pacific Ocean was split in two beyond recognition. The first thing to do was to put everything on a cylinder so that the map scrolls, fish from both sides of the Pacific are reunited, the first AI trip around the world is actually possible and second if we have time, to fix all the tools and game maps.

Ummm tis possible to head east in SH3 past New Zealand and exit the map on the left and re enter the map on the right :up:

I know it does it in GWX
Stock also
Bit crude but you get the point

Kind of makes me wonder if it's possible to add new grid reference points and expand from there... :hmm:

(for sh4)"the first AI trip around the world is actually possible")

Maybe it is AI ships that can not go over the edge of map.:hmm::hmm:
Edit: Maybe it was fixed in1.4b batch??

Not tried an AI unit :hmm:

@ -SWCowboy.
Tis the dream of many to add the rest of the KM grid system
Pretty sure its in an untouchable file though

Not totally in an untouchable file.
;)

Has any mod connected up the KM grid that already exists in the Pacific by Central America? Every time I tired to hook them up they failed.

The SH3 Devs did some things with such great care and attention, but other bits are just sloppy.
I suppose great intentions are crushed by budgets and deadlines.

[Captain von Keldunk]

@Letum

Care to clairify?

The interior of the subs, the visual and radar detection model, the other AI sensors are
all first class*, the best I have seen, but then messed up on things like the weather and
the world map.

*considering the limitations
