Does SH3 simulate ocean current?

[Shrike37]

I have GWX3.0 and was just wondering if ocean current is simulated. It seems that current played a fairly large role in Uboot navigation, especially close to shore.

I haven't really noticed it, but then again, I haven't been looking for it...

Not the current exactly but in inclement weather conditions you do get a bit of drift.

Yeah, bad thing to chase a merchant in bad weather, makes you burn a lot of fuel to get into a good position.

Which is often in the North Atlantic.

That's what the Kaleun has to weigh up and take into consideration....is the tax on the fuel situation worth the tonnage http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif
