There are still other ways to attempt to attack this hill of a problem, but for now, it is the "upgrade" (rather, failure to upgrade) of the ST Periscope that kills any and all attempts at functioning ST radar in an ongoing career. Even when forcing the periscope on a new conning tower, the shaft would fail to "upgrade" and then the game did not like that, and resulted in crashes or odd behaviors, which may as well have been a crash. It's kind of like Hotel California, in that we've stabbed it with our steely knives, but can't quite kill the beast... sigh
For 1, propbeanie... know that your (&s7rikeback's efforts, as well as any other subsimmer assisting) is appreciated.

At best, for now... will have to roll with just the Tench (if the rest of us manage to survive getting to the Tench, that is...that go by dead-is-dead principle ) is the only 1 to have that radar & it doesn't include the SJ set.

Thanks for taking a crack at it, but... for now, set aside & go with the work that can be done.

Is always the opportunity to take another crack at that nut...

Again, thanks to all working on FotRS-U to improve it. It is appreciated, from this ol' salty dawg.
