Square "INDIAN" ?

Chisum · 06-30-08, 04:34 PM

Hi all, long time no see.

Question: I'm based at Penang and I must patrol a square simply named "INDIAN".
But where is this square ? I don't find it on my map...
I tryed in "Indian sea" but nothing appears...

I'm on GWX 1.03 and I thank you for answer.

GWX can't allocate a particular grid to patrol, since you're out of the standard SH3 grid (or something like that). You'll just have to pretend.

If you're used to getting the extra renown for reaching your allocated grid, that's probably the only major drawback of choosing the eastern flotilla. ie, you won't get the "patrol grid for 24 hours" renown (since removed anyway from GWX2.0+). The only renown is for sinkings.

Oh I see.
Thanks to the answer mate.

No worries, I'm just glad it made sense.

Another strange problem...
Near Colombo I was attacked by Destroyer Class "C".
I shoot him but when I surfaced...look what's happen:

What does it mean ?

And a second try in an other mission makes the same: everytime I surfaced after attack all people is dead or hardly tired...

What ever you do, do not engage surface ships!

In stock 1.4, they could miss if they are far away...

BUT...

In GWX 2.1, the enemy is more smarter and more accurate!

As you shown, Chisum, you paid the price of engaging a destroyer!
For that I weep for you and for your men.

Subs, whether Allied or Axis, aren't designed to attack on the surface!

That's why they call them submarines!

Chisum · 07-02-08, 08:40 AM

It seems that I gived a bad explain.

The destroyer was shotdown and my crue was absolutly ok after the attack.
But just right after, when surfaced meanwhile de destroyer disapears under the flow, all of my crue get red !
It was not by a shot of an ennemy.

This is the second time I watch it, is it a bug ??

Yes.....you need the conning tower fix. I'll see if I've still got it.

Or better still, get GWX2.1, it's already included.

<Edit> Here it is....enable via JSGME and only when in port.

Chisum · 07-02-08, 02:21 PM

You should be fine now

Take no notice of STEED, it's probably nearing the time for his medication

Back for comments about the fix.

Guys: it works !

Damned ! I was so enjoyed then I make an entire patrol tonight !
Near the South England, I killed: 8 Catalina, 3 Sunderland, 1 Wellington, 1 destroyer Class C, 1 destroyer Hunt, 2 cargo C3(by gun and under air attack !!), 1 little cargo and 1 Liberty !

I had no more the problem exposed: very great fix indeed !
Thanks again.

Chisum · 07-03-08, 06:03 AM
