Morse light signals

[aergistal]

Do the light signals that ships use to communicate translate to anything meaningful or they're just random? (I just rememberd that and as I don't have access to the game right now I can't translate it myself)

pretty sure its just random

Actually it is morse code and does translate, someone in here posted the translation...Had something to do with "contact", but I don't remember my morse code.

I thought it was random also. Its pretty cool that they would go to that level of detail. Wish i knew morse code, it would be interesting to see if the message changes due to the situation.

you would think if they went into that detail, they wouldve used the time to correct some of the major flaws in SH 4 stock, luckily we have a great mod community.

I was expecting it to be something like this instead:

-... ..- -.-- / ... .... ..... / .. - .----. ... / .- .-- . ... --- -- . -.-.--

What would be funny is if you could do a graphic for the star-shells to read "Eat-At-Joes".

or if you could use your own lamp and flash back "everything's fine go away!"
