Does the watchcrew fly away from the tower, even when a machine gun hits it?

I'm not 100% sure... the game is limited and the only way to do that is based on the conning tower hitpoints...

But I've seen them fly away in the sea with a deckgun shell from a destroyer, and the crew disappear from the tower coz they die. Problem is that the game puts new crew on the tower imediatly, and that's hard coded.

:( after a long DC attack i surfaced (conningtower heavyly damaged periscopes etc. destroyed) ...erverything was ok, but when i was saving and clicked on continue in the menu, the sailors on the bridge died ... wth? :( now i gotta restart the mission because i lost 9 sailors -.-

the mod is great but is this a stock problem or is it made by your mod (i could imagine it is a stock bug, but i never had something like that before)

The crew dying on the bridge is a known issue with gwx 1.03. Its fixed on 2.0

Well, i have gwx 2.0 ... :o

Problem installing with GWX 2.1
 
When I use JSGME to install your mod I get the following error msg:
"Zones.cfg" has already been altered by the "GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects" mod.

Can I still install it?

Imeant GWXv2,

Bill

Damaged conning tower, surfaced to conning tower exploding
 
I just had a similar experience, after a prolonged DC attack by three escorts I received damage to the conning tower, propellers, engines, aft batteries, etc. Without power I just floated down to 131 meters, they finally gave up the attack and went away.

Surfaced by blowing tanks, watch crew went to conning tower and I moved officer to conning tower; then, while watching with external camera, the conning tower blew up and men were thrown overboard, quite impressive I must say. More crew came up and this repeated every 15 - 20 seconds.

However, this was unlike the "turm of death" because no crew members died; I checked the F7 screen to verify this. Then, I was able to exit patrol and return to base (by teleportation I guess) and exited game as normal.

The problem is that the only way to simulate a shell hitting the conning tower and people flying to the sea is to add the conning tower a possibility of exploding once taking damage, even drom depth charges (which is awesomely unrealistic). The only way I can think of is removing this part of the mod, then no more weird accidents like this one. Thats not really a big deal, since the possibility of taking a shell explosion on the conning tower and being on the outside camera watching is VERY remote.

Thomsen_s_No_Instant_DeathScreen_Mod___effects_V1. 1 ?
Thomsens_No_Instant_Death2 ?

What is the difference between them?
Do I have to press Ctrl + S always want to use this mod?

Thank you very much

PS. Sorry my english

The thomsens no instant death2 is the fixed version of v1.1, a fix involving crew dying on the bridge.

Ctrl+S is only for hearing the sound of equipment testing and engine start, at the beggining of the patrol.

Please, as questions about my mods on the Thomsen's Junkyard thread. Thanks! :up:
