yea known issue with RSRD..

So I have heard but not experienced. I have not experienced a unsuccessful patrol.

by all respect i doubt that RSRD is "so" real...

Heck of a lot better then being out of torpedoes before reaching your first patrol area. Shooting fish in a barrel was not the way it was either. Personally I do not believe NSM is "so" real and do not use it. I also do not blast it to bits on the forum.

One must be naive assuming that every single ship movement during WWII has been recorded somewhere and one must be totaly innocent assuming that all of this could be scripted into a mod by one person...

Sure, the Japanese were not the best at record keeping. I'm sure EVERY ship movement was not recorded. The major movements are in RSRD. Perhaps some more small convoys and singletons are in order. Perhaps you need to give Lurker a break. The guy is attempting to create 4 years of shipping.

Fact is that japanese sea was considered as absolute no-go for US submarines until middle 44. Only few subs were sent deep into japanese waters and never came back.

I believe because of the extensive mines and heavily patrolled. What is your point? So, in 1944 we hope Lurker sends us to the Sea of Japan. I will be going in at night and on the surface.

and Fact is that i can go from SF to Tokio all the way surfaced without ever seeing something worth sinking when using RSRD. Ive been patroling tokio harbor for almost a month and NEVER seen anything coming in or out the bay. Thats just not right, ou cant call it realistic.

It is still a work in progress. Furthermore, I'm playing the stock traffic right now, I'm sent east of Rubal to patrol a 50 mile radius. Meanwhile, 300 miles west there are convoys going in and out of Rubal like crazy. Now, are we going to sit here and play this type patrolling offered by the stock files or attempt to make some sort of sense with it by using RSRD? BTW, just how much traffic do you expect between SF and Hawaii? Hawaii to Iwo? Maybe after Wake should some activity start. About all I agree on here is Tokio Bay should have more traffic.
