Also to be able to prepare the ships at port,refueling,ammunition,food,......
Concerning weather conditions,manually set the desired meteo+sea state or a weather engine like Active Sky,connected online with worldwide stations providing actual conditions. A slaved surface wind to the sea state would be cool in order to give nice ocean looking and real waves.

Hi Toni,
When you will launch ATWAR you will be prompt with the country selection to start and available choice will be :
Axis
Allied
Then depending on your choice you will be prompt to choose what branch of the chosen force you want to be part of :
Kriegsmarine :U-boat or ships
Luftwaffe : Airplanes
Royal navy :battleships or escort
RAF coastal command : airplanes
Then after you pick where you want to go you will be sent either in a German harbor or Luftwaffe airfield or British harbor or RAF airfield.
This will be in first person camera and you will be able to go in barracks and various buildings to get briefing and choosing crew and equipment.
There will even be a cafe where the player will be able to interact with NPC to bring what missing from every Sim and by this i mean the human dimension of war.
Concerning weather it is a little too earlier to talk about it because we haven't yet discuss about how we will implement it but yes we will consider giving the player the choice to set the weather condition manually in missions.
The ocean model will use the best technology available but we will have to make sure lower spec system can run it.

Atlantic Warfare team
