HaHa!! I avoid that by dragging the waypoint to the new course I want rather than deleting it/setting a new one. Even if you give manual orders so you're no longer following the plotted course, the Nav oficer can return you to course without changing your speed.
NYGM prevents you from sitting still - you can't maintain depth and slowly sink. OK if you want to go deeper, but useless for waiting in ambush.
Great read - really enjoy it!!
(on a final note, and I apologise for being picky, but this is a mistake I see all the time and it drives me nuts: IT'S means "it is"; ITS is the possessive.
For example: if a ship is facing you bow-on, it's (i.e. it is) showing its bow (i.e. possessive: the ship's bow) at a zero angle.
I know this is picky, but just about everyone who writes stories here seems to get this completely incorrect...stuffed if I know why!) |
Its / It's... yeah I know, I try to make a point of reading and re-reading the whole thing before posting it but that type of error tends to slip past me. I usually edit that kind of stuff several weeks afterwards. English is not my native language, throw me a bone here
As for the course change... I dragged it, didn't delete/set it, but it still caused the engines to go. Either way, realistic play requires propulsion even at silent running so it was my own damn fault.
next chapter coming soon
