Key to get to conning tower station?

[maillemaker]

OK, I've been away from SH3 for a year, and I've forgotten the key to get you to the conning tower station where you can open and close the torpedo tubes.

What's the key?

Also, what is the key to turn on/off the TDC?

Thanks,

Steve

the key is F4 to get to the conning tower
to open and close doors it is Q to open W to close
as for TDC i don't think there is a key you have to manually click to activate manual input or auto input

I hope this helps if not press F1 in game and it should give you the hotkey information and more depending on which megamod if any you are running.

I've used either the attack scope (F3) observation scope ( letter O) or the UZO station (letter U) to open (Q) or close (W) the tubes. That said, I'm certain a tube can be opened or closed while in any station by using the (Q) or (W) keys. I don't know of any shortcut key to reach the conning tower, where the helmsman is stationed. I reach the conning tower by looking up in the command room and left clicking the hatch.
The lights in the TDC (F6) can be turned on or off by clicking the black button in the TDC station.
Good hunting!

F4 takes you to the bridge, not the conning tower.

However, from the bridge, you can right-click and go to the conning tower. You can also click on the hatch above you in the control room. It doesn't have a key binding on its own.

There is a program that exists to re-map the controls in SH3, but I don't remember what it is called or where to find it, sorry.

You can press F1 to view most of the key functions and other information.

Modify [Cmd14] in your (C:\GAMES)\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Cfg\Comman ds_en/de.cfg

add this line to the command:

Key0=0x78,c,"F9"

should look like this:

[Cmd14]
Name=Conning_tower_periscope
Ctxt=1
Page=0x33000000,3716
GoBack=Conning_tower_camera
Key0=0x78,c,"F9"

save

ingame press CTRL+F9 to jump to the conning tower periscope view
(you may use an other key if you want)

Wow I'm trying this. Thanks for posting :yeah:

[Mittelwaechter]

I guess the more elegant key would be CTRL+F4.

F4 jumps you to the UZO, CTRL+F4 jumps you to the attack periscope.

if you prefer this - add

Key0=0x73,c,"CTRL+F4"

A practical and logical alternative. I'll be trying this idea :salute:

I've got a TDC mod installed, - Hitman Optics for GWX. It had a binding to turn on and off the TDC and I can't remember it.

Maybe I used to click on the hatch from the control room to get to the conning tower, I can't remember it.

Yes, Q and W open/close doors, but the problem is if you open one tube then select another tube to open it the first tube closes.

The only way I know to solve this problem is to go into the conning tower where you can click on the tube door switches and open as many simultaneously as you like.

At the TDC screen you can open more than one tube and switch between the tubes without closing them again.

[desertstriker]

or selecta salvo that opens the doors too but same problem immediatly after going to single the other doors shut.

[maillemaker]

It's control+T that activates/deactivates the TDC with the Hitman Optics.

To get to the conning tower you have to go into the control room and then click on the hatch.
