Hi ruskoz
Sub Flags cannot be used with TWOS as it is not compatible and will cause ctd's.
I have edited this from a previous post.
To get the speed the easiest way using “Map contacts”
Use the “O” key or an Officer icon to bring up the stopwatch.
Pause the game.
Open up the target on the map so that you can see its full shape.
With the marker place an X on the bow.
Press the stopwatch start/stop button
Un-pause the game.
Use a little TC and when you get to 3 minutes and 15 seconds pause the game again.
Open up the target so that you can see its full shape again.
Take the marker and place an “X” on bow.
Take the compass and take the measurement from the 2 “X” marks.
600 meters = 6 knots and so on.
If you click on the stopwatch face you will open up the U-Jagd.
I have a tutorial for this.
As a beginner I would not start with using the stadimeter.
Get used to using the TDC first.
I would draw a line with the ruler through the targets shape to a distance to where I want to fire from.
Take the protractor and get a 90ᵒ angle.
Put the protractor on the angle and it will show you the course you need to take up a 90ᵒ firing position.
Position the U-boat at the distance/range you want to fire from.
Measure this distance with the ruler.
This distance is your Range to enter in the TDC
Your periscope 0ᵒ bearing is 90ᵒ, anything to the left or right of it is – or + 90ᵒ
Lock the target.
Use the Identify Target Icon to show you the target and you can set the torpedo depth.
You do not need to use recognition manual unless you are using the stadimeter.
With the target locked.
Move the periscope back to 0ᵒ
In the TDC.
Enter the AOB 90ᵒ
Enter the Range.
Move the periscope until both the Gyro Angle dials are vertical.
Note the periscope bearing.
When the target reaches this bearing fire your torpedo/s.
Make sure the target is locked before firing.
If the target maintains its course the only thing that will change is the range.
Set the torpedo depth against the diagram.
Do not forget to open the torpedo door switches before firing otherwise the time delay may result in a miss.
Completing missions.
When you request a mission you will get a grid patrol area in your Captain’s Log.
This does not happen in the Baltic mission.
You should also not end the Baltic mission before 00.00 4th September stopwatch time or 01.00 nautical time otherwise you will not be able to request the next mission British Coastal Waters.
By completing each grid patrol you are awarded 1 bonus point.
Each mission appears and disappears as its date comes and goes.
I am not aware of any minimum tonnage requirements needed as this was to do with the tonnage bar that has been removed.
SH5 is now similar to both SH3 and SH4 where you receive orders and objectives.
