Using version B128

The UBOAT UI feels very clunky; I try to do basic things such as find a torpodo fire button, reading skipper's log messages etc and instead I'm forced to take a tour of the uboat by foot. For example it gave me a warning that my compressed air level was too low; instead of giving me a quick order button from the engineering officer's planel I instead had to walk around the boat and operate the compressor by hand, which is pretty awesome with the fact that you're able to do that but it's also inconvenient in what could be the heat of battle. I'm not writing it off as a terrible game as there could just be some hotkeys that I've missed, but at least from the first impressions it feels more centered on boat management rather than intuitive combat.
