[REL] Ship inertia

[TheDarkWraith]

This mod will give the stock SH5 ships inertia. They will no longer accelerate in the water like a race car or stop on a dime. If you manage to shoot off a unit's propeller's it will coast along in the water for some distance before coming to a stop (like in real life). No longer will escorts or warships instantly accelerate to top speed to avoid incoming torpedoes either.

To install: unzip to MODS folder and enable via JSGME

Change log:
v1.0.0 - initial release
v1.1.0 - large warships now have a larger turning radius
- merchants turning radius has been increased
- ships no longer slow down as much in high seas
- adjusted GC and drags for units to make them 'heavy' in waves. They no longer bounce around like rubber ducks on the waves but rather cut through them

v1.1.0: http://www.mediafire.com/?oyplz9gznuwhqo1

Thx

[BIGREG]

:salute: Hi TDW

I'll go try that :03:

[TheDarkWraith]

I'll go try that :03:

Should make things much more interesting especially with IRAI enabled. Hunting convoys will be a new experience. The only downside to the mod is that there might be possibly more collisions between ships now, especially if IRAI is enabled :shifty:

Anyone have any idea what the prop factor does in the sim file? I've been playing with this value but I don't see any appreciable changes in the unit's behavior :hmmm:

[BIGREG]

Maybe ,that need to redo the AI ship ?

But ,Something must said how boats avoid the collision :hmmm:
(editing the range collision :06:)

Edit : prop factor do you mean log factor ? i use that on the TDC ship range wheel_A

The devs made it so that you cannot modify a unit's collision avoidance. I can change anything I want (to a degree) regarding unit AI except for collision avoidance :shifty:

[Adriatico]

Thanks mate,

Fresh smart modes are nice surprise...:up:

[volodya61]

Thanks TDW!
As always..

Will it work for the ships of the OHII or only for stock ships??
Can I enable it on patrol or in the bunker would be better?
Thanks for reply..

Works only for stock ships. Every ship has to have it's .sim file edited to make it have intertia. I'm not editing all the extra ships added by OHII or Eukel, they can do it themselves. I'll tell them how to do it if they ask :yep:

Should be able to enable at any time :up:

[Kaicokid]

Will this help with your own sub as well.Haven't played for some time but I remember trying to escape depth charging by going full power during explosions and full engine stop afterwards.Hoping to drift away to savety.

Your own sub already drifts when you cut the engines

were you able to do anything about reducing speeds for damaged ships like from one torpedo but still under way?

i am so tired of seeing big holes in ships or half the props missing or half sunk ships yet the ship still steams off at full speed, not sure if its fixable but its needed for sh4 and sh5

IRAI has that modelled to a degree. The amount of damage the ship has is a factor in it's current speed. I let it influence only 10% of the total speed though. Now with this interia mod I need to revisit this in IRAI :yep:

Here is something to test with IRAI and this interia mod enabled: http://www.mediafire.com/?r6mxk65jaxmb9fu

It will limit the max speed of the units based on damage incurred. For warships the max speed penalty is 35% of max speed of the unit. For merchants the max speed penalty is 25% of max speed of the unit.

To enable: you must have IRAI and this interia mod enabled. Unzip to MODS folder and enable LAST via JSGME.

I'm curious to know outcomes of this :yep:

Lately I investigated myself on this subjetc. As far as I learned from my readings on this and other SHx forums, in SH3 and SH4 this parameter affected vessel's turning radius: the higher the set value, the higher the turning manageability. But in order to give proper results, it had to be fine tuned and combined with comparable rudder drag figures. No idea if it works the same in SH5 :hmmm:

CTD? Really? This game is picky :-? Makes no sense why it would CTD.

[BIGREG]

Ok this prop factor ! for the rudders in ship_unit
i think is the decrease speed factor when you turn,more you turn hard more the speed decrease :06:
(maybe based on the rudders angle)

But in order to give proper results, it had to be fine tuned and combined with comparable rudder drag figures. No idea if it works the same in SH5 :hmmm:

I found that prop drag increased the turning radius of the ships. Thus all the merchants have been adjusted to have a larger turning radius along with the large warships. The destroyers and smaller warships I left unchanged in v1.1.0.

I've also played around with the gc_height and LR and UD drags and have the ships looking pretty realistic in large waves. They no longer bounce around like rubber ducks but look 'heavy' in the waves - cutting through them and slowly pitching sometimes nose down into a wave and sometimes nose high into the waves. I think it's a huge improvement over stock.

Ships were losing too much speed in high waves and I had to make some adjustments to v1.0.0 for this.

[BIGREG]

:yeah:

[gap]

What you describe should be the drag factor. I can only guess that this prop factor is involved in tight turns, when left and right propellers (when both present) have to turn at different speeds, and rpm in general have to be decreased in order to reduce the turning radius. But o the other hand, it seems that these two parameters are strictly related...

[TheDarkWraith]

Very pleased with the results in v1.1.0. There are two single missions included - one that has an NLL merchant and one that has a V&W destroyer so you can see the effects

[TheDarkWraith]

I found that prop drag increased the turning radius of the ships.

That's interesting. It should mean that this factor represents ship's inertia in the bow-stern direction, more than propeller's drag itself... I wish I had been more proficient in physics during my university years :-?

I tried installing it on patrol and got instant CTD. So it might have something to do with installing on patrol.

[THE_MASK]

Fired a torp at a small polish merchant . The torp hit the rear end and the ship was on fire at the rear . The ship didnt slow down at first but after a while slowed down and stopped . I observed with my periscope and after a while the ship went stern down and was sitting half out of the water on a 30degree angle . The ship was bobbing up and down with the heavy swell . After a while i recieved a distress signal and a distress flare was sent off by the ship crew .

[kiwi_2005]

Great!
I always thought it was some type of lag when the ship would speed up just before the torpedo hit then having to watch the torpedo miss :/\\!!

Surface!
Surface? Captain there is a task force above us!!!
I don't give a damn! We ain't letting that destroyer get away, prepare to ram!

Excellent Mod for eye candy as well. It seems to make a visual diferance overall of the natural look of the ships riding the waves. In Synch with the timing I suppose is the best way I can put it.
Great add-on here,

[Blinded]

On my system this addon badly affects on hydrophone. I mean that ships sometimes can't be heard with it. Ship's recognition mark appears on hydrophone's board, but it's impossible to hear it. Absolutely no sound of engines and props. In external view everything is ok. Any suggestions?

Absolutely no sound of engines and props. In external view everything is ok. Any suggestions?:hmmm: It sounds like surface vessels are now pitching and rolling so much on the waves, that the game sometimes thinks the vessel's engines and props are clear of the water. In heavy swells it's possible they are. If your Sub is close to the surface in heavy swells, it's possible to lose contact as the signal would be broken up by the waves. Of course, this is probably not that, and just a fault with the game model.

[Sigh] This game is like that old adage of the boy and dam. Once he plugs one hole, a leak is sprung elsewhere. TDW is that boy :03:

Ahoy Warfox,
When you activate the mod in JSGME, what does it conflict with? Anything?
Reactivate the mod and snap a JPG of the list of conflicts. It may be that switching these around might do the trick. As volodya61 said, it's not a "must have" mod, but it is noticeable and helps keep those pesky ships from putting on the brakes when you're going for that bow shot.

It only changes some of the ship's .sim files. So, it only will conflict with ship mods... And even that not always - only if it changes stuff for existing ships (if you look into the folder, there aren't that many in the Sea folder, lol)

[gap]

Not a "must have" mod indeed, but still an important one if you care about realistic ship's behaviour.

As noted by Targor, this mod deals with stock ships sim files. Not many mods (if any) do alter the same files, so it is hard to believe that the reason for the CTDs reported by several users is to be blamed to mod conflicts. :hmmm:

I wish TDW could resume his work on the mod, and see what is wrong with it

I need to do some testing before I can say for sure...

Unfortunately, there is a definate problems with random unknown CTDs in this game. I'm pretty sure some of them not even based on problem with mods.

Resourses per se also not the biggest issue, but sometimes I have a feeling that the way SH5 deals with the resourses is off.

Unfortunately I haven't had time in the past couple of month to start seriously looking into that (i'm still on the stage of figuring out how to manage the debagger and not let windows shut down the program - exceptions, ugh :nope:).

Sometimes it seems that the game falls on a flat floor, w/o a reason completely.. :shifty:

[volodya61]

..the reason for the CTDs reported by several users is to be blamed to mod conflicts...

Not several.. many users in Russia reported about CTDs..
And it's not a file's conflict.. nobody knows..
Maybe TDW only..

Hi!Whenever i enable this mod i encounter a problem.I can't hear any contact on the hydrophone even though my sonarman spots it.If i manual take control of the hydrophone...no sound at all.Has this happened to anyone else? yes - i have the same problem. tested it with TDW Torp Tutorial. looks like TDW Ship Inertia 1_1_0 kills the sound. tested it with different mod orders - no difference...:hmmm:

[SkyBaron]

Same thing here. Some ships lose the hydrophone sound.
This is such a cool mod but has its side effects.

[Macardigan]

Unfortunately, the problem with the sound of the hydrophone is because inside xxxxx.sim files > unit_ship > propulsion > eng_power= "if<1100~" hyd sounds dissapear.

for example:

Cimmaron Class Oiler, at 11 knots:
-my NOL_T03.sim-----------> max_force=240 | eng_power=30400 | eng_rpm=46 | -------->>> R.P.M. listening by hydrophone="69"
-shipInertia NOL_t03.sim---> max_force=240 | eng_power=1800 | eng_rpm=550| --------->>>> R.P.M. listening by hydrophone="no sound"



*I use ship inertia also. thanks, good mod. but i change engpower for listen hyd ships at low revolutions.

I was looking inside NDD_Rocket.sim to verify a compatibility issue with OHII, and to my big surprise, displacement=0 !

You have missed an important point detailed in the description of the displacement properties:

Surfaced displacement: "The object's displacement [Tons]. If 0 then the object's mass is taken."

Submerged displacement: "The object's displacement [Tons]. If 0 then it is automaticaly computed."

Rocket's mass is set to 1190 tons. :yep:
