GRRRRR My stupid radar won't work.

ok. so its like march of '42 and i got my new Fumo 29 radar. i try it out on a lone, defencless merchant. about 5000 meters away from me, nothing. so i get up close about 700 meters, nothing. so i set the radar man to continusouly sweep the area in front of me (oh and the coastal merchant is directly in front of me) and the radar still shows nothing. whats the deal here?

You forgot to plug it in? :o

Seriously, don't know the answer to this one. My current career is still pre-radar, but in past careers where I've had it it has seemed to work. They were all before installing RUb, though, so maybe that could have something to do with it if you're running it? I doubt it, but it's the only thing I can think of.

I guess that new stealth stuff really does work... :hmm:

I've been having similiar issues with the radar in open ocean. I have RUB 1.43 with the harbor mod install and the radar goes nuts when comming out of port.

I run vanilla 1.4b and have also found the first radar sorely lacking. Most of the time the watchcrew picks up the ships before the radar, regardless whether I've set it to scan in short or long range. Waste of renown.
