A few questions from a new commander
Hi all,
As the title suggests, I'm still earning my sea legs as it were. I've come up with a couple of questions which I haven't readily been able to find the answer to on the forum here, so I figured I'd ask them directly and see what result I get.
1) With GWX removing any renown earnings from patrolling your assigned grid for 24 hours, is there even a point to following those orders? Also, along the same lines, are there any mods that might give something more worthwhile (i.e. Go and patrol this port for at least that many days due to suspicion of enemy movements there),or perhaps one that might give occasional updated tasking along the same lines? Or I guess the other possibility is that U-Boats were given exactly those orders "go patrol here and come home" and they had to make the best of what they did on their own.... anyone know how close to accurate this is?
2) About how long should a full supply of O2 allow a boat to sit underwater. I've read reports of boats spending whole days (periods of daylight at least) underwater hiding before surfacing at night to move on. Is this possible in SH3? From what I can tell after about an hour I'm already down to 75%-80% O2 which would never last a full 8-10 hours. Again, is this realistic, or is there a mod that might be able to correct the issue, if it needs correcting, that is?
Thats all i can think of at the moment, though I know there were some more things I wanted to ask... I guess I'll either edit this post or post reply questions when I think of them.
As always, thanks for all your help,
Greg
