I guess I was fortunate with the auxillery cruiser. It's only october of 39! What is the spinning thingy on the bridge? Can't find it in the manual for GWX.

You can only use the UZO on the bridge. But it would help identify the spinny thing if you took a screenie

I think he means the RDF antenna. (The big metal hoop, right? Jazer?)

Also, is there a way to retract the RDF antenna?? I've seen some Youtube clips where it is retracted even when the ship is surfaced. It gets in the way sometimes.

I think Shift-R retracts the RDF antenna. I also believe that is what what Jazer is referring to.

I've tried that before and the RDF just keeps twisting. I thought Shift-R was for the RADAR antenna anyways.

Weiss Pinguin 02-05-09 10:45 AM

Maybe Shift-F then? :hmmm:

No they cant be retracted

Ref did release a seperate mod for 2.0 I think that had them retracted
All the time

Wanna leave on the 24th ?
Run a 4 day shakedown and then dock

I always thought that they did it just for the shakedown... I mean we are talking about the greatest sim ever.
