I got a keyboard recently with a dozen macro keys on the left side of it that I have programmed to automate several things in SH4. One key is set just to surface. So let's say I'm at a depth of 90 feet and I command the boat to surface, it will go to periscope depth\ahead 2 thirds\tc 16\up scope\delay 3 seconds\radar depth\tc 32\delay 5 seconds\surface\down scope\weather report. If it can be done with the keyboard you can program the macro keys to do it. Last night I discovered I can set up a key to toggle a function off\on. Place a delay at the end of the last function and it will repeat over and over until I toggle it off. That means I could dive, take a sounding and surface every hour, two hours, 3 hours of game time, whatever I program, just by pressing one key. If I get a contact, either a ship while submerged or an aircraft while surfacing, I press the macro key again and toggle the function off. The boat stays where it is and I can take the appropriate action.
Is that a Logitecg G11/G15? I have a G11 but never got to program such complicated functions, only simplier ones. Can you share how you did it?
