Wait, you got a mission to Tokyo area in a S boat out of Alaska? ughh god lol Definitely have to make sure that does not happen. Closest S boats ever patrolled to home islands are the Northern Kuril Islands .

lol Yea, the 20/25 MM guns on merchants and warships are way overpowered, always were but in TMO original created made them more so, to deter people from trying to gun it out, to act in a realistic manner.

I've wanted to change it but its ugh complicated task and have yet to really find a answer for. I was told those guns (because UBI is lazy) share ammo/she type with player 20 MM so if reduce them, youll be reducing player's 20 mm as well and because damage models are different, can have a lot of unintended consequence.

For the S-Boat specifically, its was made to be more vulnerable than others because of the revamped damage model. S boat in stock and every mod ive ran have been like tanks, could dive way too deep, ran too quiet, handled too well. In TMO update armor was reduced and overall hit points hull can take were reduced. Holds up pretty well in most depth charge scenarios but yes going to be ever more vulnerable in surface situation. All boats are far too vulnerable to 20 25 mm ac fire, as explained above, but S boat is going to be even more so. Not meant to be slugging it out on surface anyways lol.

I will do some testing though, maybe need increase armor or HP slightly so light gunfire like 20 mm doesnt shred it. Worked fine in testing before last release but will check it out.

Due to the way the subs interact different with hits from shells vs depth charges, have to walk the line balance them or end up with a tank sub that depth charges do nothing to.


Sounds like sure are getting a lot of CTD, do you have additional mods running with it the TMO Update? You are using LAA I believe you said. TMO is a inherently stable mod and my install is quite stable, can't remember last CTD besides a time compression, which happens to everyone from time to time.

I've had the CTD during TC also, but only once. The other time I was hitting the F keys going between areas fast and I probably just overloaded the system.


Yeah, my 1st patrol was south of Kamchatka Pen just east of Paramushir in Northern Kuriles. After that I was sent to recon Yaizu Harbor in the bay south of Mt. Fuji. Before I even got there I used 1/2 of my fuel so I probably would run out before getting back to DUT. The 1st time I did the recon the weather was so bad, I got within 1 mile of the harbor and still couldn't see anything to photograph. I even sat on the bottom for 12 hours and still couldn't.


The only mods I'm using are the required ones and 2 or 3 of the optional ones.
