The home/end key was the fix for the sonar. Why the cursor doesn't work on newer classes seems odd. But that's minor.

If you have a wheelie mouse the wheel works also :up:

Starting from a different port is caused by the class of boat used and though I haven't checked, probably also the year and theater of command.

Crew in time compression. It wasn't battlestations. I didn't think that was it. I checked that right away. It just isn't all that automatic. The computer does rotate the crew. Just not as rapidly as SH III. I always thought SH III Fatiqued the crew much to fast anyway. Seemed like every five minutes one had start rotating. Love the game. Hate the crew management. I think the SH IV is much better. But keep an eye on the TC just in case it drops to x8, which it does. Just needed to get the mechanics squared away.

You just need to get those boys whipped into shape. Dont worry about it to much SH4 does a decent job of crew rotation.

I noticed yesterday on this site that there is refuelling. How does that work? How long, how close and where? Or is that a mod?

If you have the add on uboat mission 1.5 later in the war (also for the Uboat campaign) tenders (milch cows) start to pop up here and there. But still if you run out of fuel and cannot reach one your out of luck. Also later in your carrer and the war 'support' units can be called upon but Ive never really got it to work worth a damn.

Do you have any mod suggestions or sites? I can't seem to get the green light tabs for the bottom menu commands to load or I have the wrong one.

There is so many mods I dont even begin to pretend to be an expert. Personally I like RFB (real fleet boat) others swear by TMO (trigger maru overhauled). Hell try em both /shrug.

As to installing mods I have 4 letters for you JSGME... go to the modding forum and do a little research. Once you have it set up installing is literally as easy as selecting a mod and clicking a few buttons. Better yet un-installing is just as easy. Though you do have to be careful as to what order you install and what mods will work with others.

I think that is it,
