Eh?
 

Perhaps someone can help understand this message from BdU:

"Provide beacon if contact can be kept"

...what the hell does that mean??

cheers

Real life U-boats would have signal beacons that could be used to help other U-boats in a wolfpack situation find the convoy in question. For SH3 purposes, this isn't modeled and the radio message should just be treated as atmosphere.

Thanks. On reflection, I realise the message wasn't meant for me; rather globally transmitted.

Simply eye candy.
