Rudder missing!

[madkicker]

oo,, This has happened several times now. I will be cruising around looking for ships. I may or may not get into a fight. And I will not be able to turn sub, I go to cammera and look and my rudder is missing.

I go to the damage screen and everything is in pefect condition and hull has 0 damage.

Wus up?

[Torplexed]

I've had missing rudders before, but it's usually been due to bomb or depth charge damage. Either way your fate is the same. You're stuck going in a straight line until the fuel runs out or you smack into dry land. End of career. :cry:

that guage only shows the inner pressure hull, not the outer hull which could be beat to hell and the guage still says 0 because the inner hull is still intact.

you are not alone being annoyed by this

Anybody knows what to change in the save game file to restore the rudder?

I know it's technically cheating, but DAMN! having a completly undammaged boat that you just can't turn is frustrating.

it was ActivePlayerUnits.upc in your save directory.. but i have no luck in cheating with those rudder.. i just manage to remove the damage on the damage components.. but no luck with those destroyed components like the rudder.. i think those destroyed components cannot be replaced untill you refit on some of the friendly ports...
i sure hope someone had some workaround for it...

Without a rudder you're goin' down. Been there, done that. But, hey, you can join us. We are serving salt water taffy and sea weed salad for lunch. You and your crew are invited.

With DEEP sincerety,

I'm goin' down
