I have no reason to doubt the stories about the drone controllers.

Wow.

Can't help but respect the investment you put into that research.

That's not hard to fix. A month's worth of dirty socks with diesel fuel added and put under yer desk would do the trick. ;) LOL

Quite a story. I don't think I could do it.... I'd be kicking the cats for relief. LOL IMO, you deserve a real Iron Cross with gold oak leaves and diamonds for playing with no TC. :salute:

It was actually pretty foolish on my part. Had I invested more time and intensity into the experiment, the effects could have been more pronounced. To be fair, there were other motivations for the experiment. In short, I would not recommend that anyone try this. TC is your friend.

sorry i'm new to this site, i couldnt figgure out how to post a new thread.
 
i don't know how to plot a search pattern and i think it is making my game mess up, as soon as i sink a ship it sends me back to port and i think it is because i didnt plot a search pattern, all i did was just plot points around where they wanted me to search. i couldn't figgure out how to plot one. thank you in advance, and if this wasn't clear i am just wondering how to plot a search pattern.

Hi and welcome!

There is no need to plot a specific search pattern, I also plot around. Except now with Real navigation it takes much more effort :)

Something else is wrong with your game, do you have mods? I've never experienced that kind of bug, hope someone else can help you out!

This definately sounds like a bug (or hardware issue?) and you will have more luck getting help if you start a new thread; use this button here:

Welcome to Subsim.:)

As troopie said, you will have better luck making a new thread on this. Technically, your question can be considered a thread hijack as it has nothing to do with the topic.

Patience
 
I have tried through SH2,3,4, and 5 to be as realistic as possible. To date I have not completed any campaign due to the slow pace. Today I us 32x with the automated scripts by Trevally and others. (New UI by DarkWraith) that allows me to let things run knowing a search will be done after each 2 hrs at 32x speed.

I also have a baby monitor set up so I can roam the house and listen to the sounds and hopefully catch the alarm calls before getting sunk. So far so good.

My other method is to run at 1 TC until I get fed up and then zoom ahead for a few minutes before saving and shutting down.

Welcome to the forum, and enjoy the game! :yep:

I set out from Kiel Oct 30 1800 US time to begin a new campain in where I only use time compression when I reach the AO. So far its Nov 2 @ 2109 and I have just left Kiel Canal after 8 hrs of travel. Ill keep yall posted on my experiment progress if anyone is interested. If I go crazy enough Ill make a story of all my travels..

If you using no cheats (means 100% realism with no 3rd person view and no contact updates) and if you are using the IRAI-mod then i am interested in the story.
