Total Signature re do
the new signature look is part of my total signature overhaul
this makes all signatures more realistic & have meaning so im reworking them at the moment but it takes time to re do em all + other stuff im working on
basic re working method is :
Narrow Band & Broad Band - Separator
this is a bit more Realistic approach to split the Sonar information up
its nothing like real Sonar stations or systems tho
besides that would mean Rewriting & adding loads Of code and many new display screens to show it properly real systems use to name a few
LOFAR
LOw Frequency Analysis & Recording
or DEMON
Detection of Envelope MOdulation on Noise
Not to mention Various Arrays but it will do
ho and toilet Roll dont forget that for your Sonar screen
what ive made is splitting the sonar information in to 4 Visual sources
========Narrow Band====
1.) Propulsion method so Propellers ect
ive made 5 sizes very small , small , medium , large , very large
2.) Propulsion Power so
Nuclear , Turbine , Electric or Engine for other Generic types
=====Broad Band===========
3.) Acoustic Signature so like it use to be in cold waters
4.) Noise
this is displayed by the brightness behind the Broadband Acoustic signature the brighter the background is the Louder it is
this is mainly to separate submarines & surface ships tho some submarines can be noisy if multiple reactors and propellers were used not to mention if its not rafted
See Image (60,70,s Sig) redo for better look ive included a Key image in the
picture of types for comparison this image is off the USS narwhal with analog
Hud my MY New digital one is above this post in first post
so now your sonar display tells you
1.)power source type and number of
2.)size and number of propellers
3.)contact signature
4.)contact type so surface or submarine
and with the arrow to show if target is above or below Thermal Layer all this information Greatly Enhances the game i think
added signature types so far :
Very Large Propellers
Large Propellers
Medium Propellers
Small propellers
Very small propellers
-------------------------------------
Large turbines
Medium turbines
Small turbines
-------------------
Large Diesel engines
Medium Diesel engines
Small Diesel engines
----------------
Reactors (Nuclear)
--------------
Battery Motors (Electric)
