Thanks oakdesign:salute:

You are the second person to report this:hmmm:
Sounds like an error in the flotilla file.
I will check it over:up:

Has anyone else seen this:06:

Make that the third same problem down to every detail

Did you try this

Update
Issue fixed, must have been a corropted installation on my side
I tested with
OHII base + patch -> no CTD with new VIIB on new patrol loading
OHII base + enviro + patch -> no CTD with new VIIB on new patrol loading
OHII base + new ships + patch -> no CTD with new VIIB on new patrol loading
in the end just to verify that it might really be related to OHII full I loaded my initial loadout again and voila
Can accept new VIIB submarine and start new patrol without CTD

That sounds like TDW's NewUi option where you can catch submarine sighted reports from other ships. But I think it should be set to false by default. If I remember right you can turn it off ingame from the radio options-button (small arrow in radio report panel).

well if you use the bow mounted sonar thingy you will get hydro contacts .....but the rotating antena trhing thats on top you will not.....

just a thought

so its working correctly, and I should be getting sonar contacts with the default sonar gear? Once i update its gone?

Update: Just had my first run in with a dolphin pod - chased them all over thinking they were ships. Wasnt until i dived that I heard their noises. I thought the were nets at first, or mines, but eventually found them

Every time I get close to a dolphin they send a 'submarine'sighted' report. It shows up as red in the radio messages list - so IM assuming its me. Its certainly my coordinates. I like the submarine sighted reports - but I should be able to see the ships before they reoprt me!!

Re: sub spotted
yes Rongel is correct and you can stop this by clicking the small options icon in the message window and untick sub sighted.

This is TDWs mod where it scans a distance around your boat and when a unit (including dolphins) get within that area - there is a random chance that a message "sub spotted / scope spotted" is sent.

You can edit the radius where this may happen or stop it. (options.py)

do enemy ships/planes come in answer to the message?

In that case I wouldnt like to turn it off. Its defaults to 8000, wonder what a compromise is. I should at least be able to see them first...

Sorry Con2oor - I dont know.
You should ask in TDWs Ui thread:up:

haha, I love that dolphins are sending radio messages of seeing you! :)

I don't think those radio messages you get actually alert anyone, since I've been getting them before I'm visible at all and no response was made by the units sending the messages. Like I'll get the red "you've been spotted" message but they won't change course at all.

yeh - had noticed that before - radio message says im spotted but ships steam into my path, not zigzagging....ill turn them off id thats the case.

Damn you flipper!
