How can I stabileze the UZO without changing the setting "stabilize optics" which then lowers the realism? I tried to run the boat on 8m depth which helps, but "lock target" doesn't work any more on UZO.

I've found another rather unreal AI behaviour: I managed to get inside a large convoy on surface. The merchants were 500 - 800m away, the sea was rough it was raining, perfect situation for surface attack I thaught... But as soon as first torpedo hit the target all ships in range opened fire like they knew all the time my sub was there. I was sunk in a minute. Any clues how to fix this. It really is unreal and makes all surface attacks impossible.

Good hunting.
I think unchecking "no stabilise view" in the game options is the only way to steady the UZO. The UZO being unusable on all but the calmest seas is probably the more unrealistic option. Sitting at a PC, your body isn't naturally compensating for movement under your feet!

The only downside in my experience, of unchecking this option is your binoculars seem to become more like the unstabilised UZO

I'm not sure if you can even make any changes to the realism settings that will stay applied once you have started your patrol and departed the bunker.

You may have to manually edit your SaveGame (the one you intend to load to continue your game)\ GameplaySettings.cfg file if you are already on patrol. (you can check the SaveGame title in the "ReplayInfo.rep" to make sure it is the correct one)

Just go to C:\Users\"yourname"\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\SaveGames\"savegame you intend to load"\GameplaySettings.cfg and change the line "NoStabilizeView=true" to "NoStabilizeView=false". All games saved after this point should reflect the new settings.

Regarding your convoy......you were just unlucky that all the crews were younger and still had good eyesight and hearing

EDIT: I should have taken more notice of the post date before responding.
