Hi,

I think we need to quickly implement patches to make the game more faithful to the characteristics of Uboats and thus find the constraints they induce.

One of the easiest aspect to fix is the power of the zooms of the attack/observation periscope.

The two periscopes (attack and observation) currently have 3 zoom levels: X1, X3 and X8.
In reality, they had only two: X1.5 and X6.

For the UZO, the maximum is indeed X8. On the other hand, it could be set between X1 and X8. It should be added the possibility to refine the zoom with the mouse wheel.

For the binoculars, I wonder: why did you block it at X1?
It should have the same characteristics as the UZO.
The UZO is nothing more and nothing less than a pair of binoculars linked by a mechanism to perform surface shots.

These are details, but that's what makes a good game.
