I just finished correcting the dive plane issues. This fix required editing the .sim file as well as a new texture.
Some uboats had the needles pointing in the wrong direction as discussed earlier. This has been corrected. Also, all of the dive plane gauges were inaccurate and didn't display the proper degrees of motion. Since the gauge tick marks were off, I had to create a new gauge texture.
The new scale has +/- 30 degrees in each position as seen in several uboat pictures. Also, the game simulates 30 degrees of motion in each way which is why I chose to scale it so. I did not make a portion of the gauge tick marks in red because some of you did not like this and many photos have it in black.
New Dive Plane Gauge:
Fore and Aft needles in correct position:
The new gauges are now
very accurate. The gauge will now coincide with the actual dive plane position. When the dive plane is at 30 degrees the gauge will display 30 degrees.
