sub wont turn/alter direction bug? Wolves of steel

[alien1234]

Hi, I just found this bug, I reached my partrol cords and did random nav points, when the boat reached the end the boad stopped as normal, I just sat there and increased the time, I then had a contact, I restarted the engines but entering a direction on the bar or trying to plot a course the boat just stays in the same direction, there is no damage also I have tried to reload the game but I still have the same problem.

That's odd...I don't remember anyone reporting something similar...Have you tried to use compass ("C" key) ? Are you sure you still have rudders on board?

Be aware that course changes are limited to TCx32 at max ...

- Send radio reports trough your WO/radio man interaction menus and don't use TC higher than 32 until the message is sent. This procedure also stands for other orders like: depth under keel, max range at current speed, new heading command, nearest radio contact ect...

yea tried all that, also checked for damage from damage control, all gear is 100%. I deleted old saves, so going to have to start again.

Is there a way to check the save game file log?

Do you alt-tab active game sometime?

[alien1234]

Are you sure? Because if you did, that could most likely be your problem...

Check for what?

Hi, yea 100% sure. I just started a new game as I hadnt got very far any way.

Check the log file for anything that doesnt look right, I read somewhere before about looking at the file for mission stats, but dont remember the post or how to do it

Ok I think I found out what was causing the bug, any game speed faster than x1 you can order a turn but nothing will happen does this 100% of the time, setting game speed to x1 and the boat will turn, again does this 100% of the time.

I already told you that in 2nd post ...
