[REQ] Snorkel for Open Horizons

[ustahl]

Now that Open Horizons enables us to continue U-Boating towards the end of WWII, I sincerely hope that some of the talented modders out there manage to mod a working snorkel
a) for realism, and
b) to somewhat improve the odds of survival.

Is there something in the pipeline yet??

Hi Josef,
I didn't know. But then again, there more we ask the more the pressure grows, and hopefully some genius will finally step forward and comply.
Without a Schnorchel OH is bound to be frustrating.

I know, I know ... Without the Schnorkel is the way through the Bay of Biscay very hard in 1943/44...

I previously thought that the schnorkel is in the game because all the UI mods includes the choice of Schnorkel-depth.

The model is in the files.. It's just not included in the UPCFiles and the game itself.

Josef, I think that Schnorchel-stuff (and plenty of other stuff) is carried over from older SH-versions, where it actually worked, IIRC, and the devs just lazily let old code remain instead of cleaning out all non-working code-ballast.

Now, let's hope that Schnorchel artist turns up!

There is already a snorkel model in the game files. Or maybe I just speak gibberish

Go to the equipment or sensor files and look at them in the Goblin Editor
