Will be happy to, but I'm going to be spending most of the weekend building a new PC and moving bits around between about 3 others, so it may be a couple of days before I can check into this stuff again, even if all goes well with the PC construction job (and something always seems to go wrong somewhere along the way, so even that time line may prove to be optimistic, but I'll check it out as soon as I can).
This still sounds very promising, but I really hope that you can figure out how to make it work to command a specific depth or course rather than have to go with just the dive/maintain and hard rudder/amidships approach - I'd really like to be able to order a depth and go do something else without worrying that I'll forget to say "level off" and send us all to the bottom (or forget to say rudder amidships and sail around in circles).
Your comment about the string of words maybe having to include all the possible degree combinations ir probably right on target, much as it pains me to realize it. I remember when I was training Shoot for my German profile for SH3, I entered each separate word into the custom dictionary (e.g., "kleine", "langsame", "fahrt" and "voraus"), and then it would recognize each word separately as I put them together in various phrases. However, in order to tell it what to listen for when I wanted it to send the particular speed command, I did have to tell it to look for each specific combination of words (e.g., "kleine fahrt voraus", "langsame fahrt voraus"), so if you are going to be able to give granular, degree-by-degree course commands it looks like you might well have to define a separate command for all 360 degree phrases, which I was hoping to maybe avoid by calling out the numbers one by one. Too bad
Still, even if it proves to be too much to be able to command course changes to specific degree courses or in 1-degree increments, being able to do it in maybe 5 or 10-degree increments ("come right 10 degrees", or "come left 45 degrees", etc.) would still be really cool. Same thing with depth - even if you can't order depth in 1-foot increments, being able to do it in 10 or even 20 foot increments would still be pretty cool. You could still use either the mouse or the dive/maintain or hard rudder/amidships approaches as well if you wanted some intermediate results, since the latter are already key-mappable.
Keep up the good work
