probably a game bug/problem. Using the officer bar issues the same command as pressing the key for silent running.

Still absolutely astounds me just how unfinished this game was on release...:damn:

On a more positive note, DarkWraith, I've just started trialing your UI mod with all the other bits and pieces from the other modders too and am loving it. Great work! :yeah:

Sorry TDW false alarm, I can't reproduce the problem now. I started with a fresh UserOptions file just to see if that would fix it, and it seems like it did. Maybe I messed something up when I customized it. So we can rest assured, the devs did not mess this one up:yeah:

the game 'hiccups' a lot on many things I've noticed. Silent running is one of them. It happens more when you go to high TC settings.

Late to the party
 
I just tried your Mod for the first time and am absolutely astonished! :o

Thank you so much for this great work :up:

Which set-up do you use with SH5? I prefer the SH5 enhanced :DL

Excellent. However, I found your Mod, with all the added extras and possible permutations, a little over-whelming. Can you consolidate the choices into three packages; Enhanced SH3, Enhanced SH4 and Enhanced SH5 and have them as three seperate downloads that don't require any tweaking? Just install & go! I know all the different choices make sense to you, but to mere mortals like myself, all the options make my head spin :doh: I mean, who is using imperial measurments in German U-boat sim?!

The options file is commented very well. If you take the time to read it it's very easy to use and self-explanatory. The purpose of the options file is to reduce the load on me to provide different packages for different styles and thus I won't change the way I've done it :DL

In stock is implemented "lock the target", what about "lock/center the periscope view on target"?

One thing about speed calculation for new notepad for torpedo calculator...
Can you read bearing of target when measurement is start and stop?

Yes I can read bearing of target.

So what is the problem with speed calculation for notepad?
read 1st value , read 2nd value, read time, calculate them in math formula and show the result...
Do you need math formula for it?

if you can give the formula for how to calculate the speed I can try and implement it.

change log for v2.2.0 as of now:

v2.2.0 - redid the draggable compasses so that the inner ring is bigger and the outer rotatable ring is closer to the inner ring for better readings.
- added a new user option that allows you to specify the TC level above which the clock will not appear (it will stay hidden) (AboveThisTCLevelDoNotShowClock)
- added new dial to TDC. This dial is a Mast height dial. This has to be set to the mast height of the selected contact before taking your range readings if you want accurate range readings (overcomes stock bug of mast always being set to 20m).
- removed hard coding of contact spotted/locked spotted and associated items for TAI and nav map. They now reference strings in the menu.txt file so that they can be translated to different languages.
- added new user option that allows the end user to specify the depth below which the sub does not receive radio messages/contacts. Your current sub depth has to be greater than the depth chosen to not receive radio (BelowThisDepthDontReceiveRadio)

have to add one more thing and then that'll wrap up v2.2.0: add a user option that specifies the distance that they can receive radio reports. If the radio report is > this distance then they don't receive the radio report. Might add + - controls to top right bar for this also.

Sorry to sound noobish..

But where do I find where to alter User Options?

For some reason when I hover my mouse over one of the officer options or anything for a tool tip the explanation doesn't come up..
