Repeated status Reports
 

:hmmm: I was wondering if someone could help me.
I have a continuous repeating message from one of the crew that bugs me and I need to remove it.
eg; "Running on both diesels making 14 knots in this weather", which goes on, and on, and on!
I have no other problems with my mods whatsoever apart from this.
I would be most grateful for a solution from anyone if I could stop this happening.

Many thanks.

G'day Pinner, this sometimes happens to me but usually in extremely rough weather as your boat keeps switching between submerged and surfaced. When this happens, the crew AI scripts keep getting called up to run through their routines which can become quickly annoying. :hmph:

There are a couple of things you can try, one being to play with the "Time delays" ( items that depend on whether submerged/surfaced to control state) settings in the Options File Editor Viewer. The other option you can try if your feeling particularly adventurous is to edit the AI scripts which is what I did to get rid of that annoying "making 14 knots in this weather" no matter what speed you were doing! :wah:

If you edit any files, ALWAYS make a backup of the original in case things go pear shaped! :o

Edit the Propulsion_standard.aix script to look exactly as the photo example below and poor old chronically depressed Josef Erdmann will still wander about the boat, but will never waffle on about doing 14 knots on both diesels ever again. :D

:Kaleun_Thumbs_Up:G'day Kevinsue.
Spot on matey. it did the trick perfectly.
If I can be of any help to you, don't hesitate to p.m. me.

That old left over encrustation from from WW1 should have been pasteurized after WW1 was over.
What with his repeated "We are in shallow waters,captain" every 1 minute, he is probably just as bad at home when taking a bath and the water is evaporating, screaming at the wife "We are in shallow waters,dear", to which she no doubt replies, "use your big toe as everyone else does and turn the water tap on, idiot". (L.o.l)

I suppose you wouldn't happen to know how to stop message from the B.D.U. "Be more aggressive" when you have just sunk an Aircraft Carrier, Cruiser, 2/3 destroyers and an odd merchant or two.
No way to send a reply back in the system, such as "get stuffed"

Cheers.

:haha: I think I'll change it to "Großadmiral Karl Dönitz advises that you have been awarded 1 extra Fräulein on your triumphant return..BdU":smug:

Encrustations 7 things similar.
 

:k_rofl: (L.o.l)
:Kaleun_Cheers:

You PM is not working
 

G'day Pinner2010, I tried to PM your request but got this message so here is the original thread bumped so hopefully you find it. :up:

He is suppose to say
"Running on both diesels . Able to make 14 knots in this weather",

Hi Graham

I agree that the "Be more aggressive" message really winds me up and is totally unnecessary.

Peter

Yeah..that would make more sense than saying 14 knots at any speed. :yep: I think the script was originally written for the MCCD_1.04 mod but just scripted
to say "making". Wp:PlaySoundWithLipsync("ChiefEngineer\Normal\SR_C R_CHIEF_02", 2.0); # "running on both diesels. Making.."

It's not really the best way to go about things by removing parts from scripts as per the example in this thread because every time you do, you take some ambience from the game that the original modders tried to add. :nope:

Be good to find the timers for whatever triggers the event and stop the repetitive callouts such as "smoke on the horizon", "new contact" etc that makes you feel like surfacing in the middle of a HK Group just to end the pain! :hmph:
