Hi,

First of all, I would like to say thank you for bringing us this great "upgrade" for the game. It is a great addition to the game.

I have a little issue, though.
I'm running on SH5 enhanced version of the UI, but sometimes I have problems with changing course in the "compass UI" in the navigation map.
When i press the course bar on the bottom of the screen and the compass comes up, It doesn't always respond when i click on it to change course.

Is there something I have missed here?

Thanks anyway, and again, fantastic work!!!

Contact speed not shown ?
 

Hi Folks !

I´ve a question: Why does the contact speed not shown on the NavMap ?
Here comes two screens from what I mean:

On both screens you see all other information from the contact, only the speed of the contact does not shown !

The speed is only shown above the Message Box similar as in stock-SH5 !

Why not above the NavMap, there are only --- by Speed ?

Okay, both Contacts are friendly (german) ships, but make this an difference ?

Here come my settings from options file:

# is the contact spotted info available? (shows course, speed, datetime stamp, etc.)
NavContactSpottedEnabled = True

# Are the contact's actual speed shown or is a relative speed shown (slow=2-6 knots, medium=7-12 knots, fast=13+ knots)?
# change below to either True or False
ShowContactsActualSpeed = False

# Are the contact's actual course shown or is a relative course shown (E,ENE,SE,S, SW, etc.)?
# change below to either True or False
ShowContactsActualCourse = False

I think the settings are okay to show the relative speed shown above on the NavMap, and not only the stripes --- !

Any solution please ?

Best regards,
Magic:salute:

TDW explained me once:
this lane must be like this
ShowContactsActualSpeed = True

the speed wil apear after you will calculate like... indentify target etc... the metode explainded by tdw in his speed finder tutorial

You mean, ONLY after identify the target the speed does shown on NavMap ? :hmmm: But I thought I have the target identify, nevertheless the target speed doesn´t shown on NavMap (with this setting: ShowContactsActualSpeed = False) ?!

But what I want is, that the relative speed (slow, fast...) of a target is shown on NavMap, and you mean this doesn´t work ? :hmmm:

Best regards,
Magic

i mean you must to calculate the speed using the metode explained by tdw in his ,,speed finder tutorial'' and after that the speed will pop up in nav and tai map

Also as "relative speed", when I have this in options.py File selected ? :hmmm:

did not tested with ,,relative speed'' ... so dunno

see this thread here http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...8501&highlight

This was more for headings but speed was talked about too.

If your options are set, speed will only show when in visual range.

Thanks, link is very interesting ! :up:

Okay, but in my two screen above the ships were in visual range ?!

:D - if you increase the ,,range from what crew can recalculate range from spoted contact'' than you can have displayed this info in nav and tai map even you can not see the ship somethime in scope but you put the scope in the bearing reported by crew watch..:arrgh!:

My current setting is 10km ! What do you mean must I set?:hmmm:

Ah ok:oops:

There are two visual ranges:-

1- you can see the target. (3d world)
2- your crew can see the target. (script world)

You can set your crews visual range in the options.py

8 km... but 10 must be ok also
