Any idea what would be causing this?
hi Buck_O,
first of all don't pay attention to helmsman ! he 'lives' in his own world ! the speed you are going is the one that you read at the circular dial ( the speed that is showing at bottom left on console is rounded up every half knot. : in other words when speed goes over 2.5 knots it shows 3 ,over 3.5 knots it shows 4....etc)
the actual speed is not altered by MaGui's files . the speed is calibrated to 'follow' your order when you are submerged and rudders are at 0.if you are turning the speed will perform lower than your ordered speed .now, when you are surfaced (rudders at 0) speed is performing a little lower than ordered speed and i am doing the same thing that Griffon345 suggested (don't pay attention to helmsman...look only at your dial)

a major update is coming for MaGui 2+ : some new graphics at dials (more custom) ,reworked attack disc's front and back and reworked 3-bearing aob tool (brightness is heavily reduced in order tools not to be annoying during night and now have a look of very 'used' tools) ,the reworked by Storm87 rings for aob wheels (thank you Storm )
and new dials for the tdc (more close to the real thing) but i can't say anything more on this at the moment
