Obviously japanese submarines had also more speeds than their us counterparts...

Full maximum (Emargency)
Maximum battle speed.............(full speed on each ship)
Third battle speed................................24Knt
Second battle speed.............................21Knt
First battle speed.................................18Knt
Full (or its should be call faster).............15Knt
Normal (standard speed?)..................12Knt regular speed
Half.............................................. .....9knt
Slow.............................................. ....6knt
"Uppers are section in ahead"
stand by for engine (I think this function only for SUB)
stop.............................................. ...0knt
stand by for electric motor (I think this function only for SUB)
"Below are section in back"
Stand by
Slow
Half
Normal
Full
Maximum

Good Lord :o

Thankfully they use the same number system as us, but the alphabet....wow.....will be a hard time understanding that all :hmm:

And I thought russian was difficult :lol: !

[keltos01]

will have to "count" the speeds more than read the dials :rotfl:

For me, as I am a Chinese, I can read Chinese Characters in Japanese(Hanji?) as well. So....:hmm: I can understand nearly all meaning above:yep:

By the way, it seems that the dial is also used to switch between diesel and electric engine?

[keltos01]

Yes, that is when the sub dives !

is this (not the background) ok ?

Oh one question BTW: Are you going to keep the U-Boat interiors or are we gettiing new ones for the japanese subs? :D

I think that by replacing some stuff and adding other, you could get a more individual interior, even if it is not historically correct. I for one would prefer a common interior for all japanese subs that differs from the U-Boats rather than U-Boat interior.

Really? I thought the language would differ a lot (chinese from japanese), so do the characters represent concepts and not fonetics like most occidental languages? That would explain you being able to understand them.

When do you think you could have the interiors done? :lol:

Apart from what I saw in the movie Go Chin, which was filmed during an actual war patrol in 1942 and is very dark (Zaza's dial comes from there) I don't see how we would as the US sunk all its captured IJN subs in 1946 :nope::nope::nope: and their pictures weren't worth didley squat...
It is too much work not to make it accurate, I don't use the inside 3d when I play, to me it's just eye candy ;)

iv got a set of interior plans of a Jyunsen B if anyone is interested. just have to look em up.

Actually, Japanese "borrows" a lot of Chinese characters into their language, although Japanese has its own characters as well.
However, in my opinion, the phonetics are quite different. grammar as well.

And I read Chinese characters in Japanese only:oops:

[keltos01]

ok now's the trouble, the us/german side has 5 forward speeds, 4 reverse.

how could we add speeds ? I know it involves making a new dial, but can we add the missing speeds ?

the dial and Peabody's flag and mast fix will be included in next version :2.6, look on the Jyunsen B thread for details or on the japanese campaign thread.
