When entering harbors keep the Red Bouys on your left . Remember Port is Red and Port has the same amount of letters as left . Port/left/red . Leaving harbours you will have green bouys on your left .

Any other harbors I need to add ? Ideas will be appreciated . Landmarks you have observed can be added etc !

Well done Sober :up:

By the way of your mod, I wonder if oakdesign is still working on his own Major Floating Lights on Nav Map :hmm2:

well done Sober :up:

Addu Atoll http://www.avalanchepress.com/AdduAtoll.php

Your mission will require you to sneak into the atoll.
Only two channels are deep enough (decks awash)

Quote:

The German submarine U-183 did torpedo the tanker British Loyalty in March 1944, making an impressive long-range shot from outside the atoll through a gap in the anti-torpedo nets.

@ Trevally

(a bit offtopic, sorry sober :oops:)

I have finally discovered the meaning of the black/yellow buoy with the cones on top:

Look for "cardinal buoys" :03:

Thank you :up: sober

I will add Addu .
Less intelligence shown on the enemy map .

oooo nasty:D

I wonder what intelligence they had on Scapa Flow before the raid apart from block ships :hmm2:
Also imo there shouldn't be any DDs or enemy vessels around Holm sound and no vessels east of Scapa during Total Germany campaign . It should be easy to get into .
You could place 2 block ships close together so a sub just squeezes thru . I could add shallow water either side . With Reworked Submarine Damage you wouldn't want to hit the block ships .
No more easy targets after Total Germany though .
Re Attu , less intelligence on my nav bouy map . Not the navmap .

Found a website with free on-line nautical charts:

http://map.openseamap.org/

For Addu Atoll, it only shows a minor beacon on Bushy Islet (the small island at the northen entrance to the atoll, missing in SH5). No lateral buoys.

Here is my rework of Trevally/Sober's map, featuring batimetric lines from the website mentioned above, but with buoys as per sober's chart. The style is roughly based on real Kriegsmarine charts as seen on kartengruppe.it: :salute:

superb
 

Way to go Sober, and also Gap for the chart website link.

Now we really are sailing in a real setting. I can hardly see the buoys through the murk caused by Sober's storm clouds. Ah there, through a haze of Sober's Lights is the channel.

Ahh, home again.

Looks great Gap:yeah:

Tanks Trevally, :)
I will see what I can do with the other port entrances.

On a side note: can you please have a look at the websites I have linked in my previous posts here, especially the last one? From there you can get many clues on how to make OH's buoys even more realistic. :up:
