In a perfect world, if your u-boat were sunk or scuttled near enough to one of these rescue buoys, it would be wonderful to mod into SH3 such that, if any of your crew makes it to a buoy survived, and you could then have them reassigned to a new boat to carry on the fight and keep your career going.
Otherwise it is still a great "atmosphere" mod that increases the realism. This is a very good one on your part, privateer. I doubt more than a handful of kaleuns here even knew about these buoys.
It makes you wonder, with all the attention to battles and major weapons platforms, just how many more of these minor technical marvels have been forgotten.
I'm sure a team of sim programmers could spend a solid decade just creating that much detail, where the weapons and support technology of the world during WWII is accurately portrayed.
Maybe by then we'd have desktop computers with the horsepower it would require to render it. :p
