Captain's Bunk

Grey_Raven75 · 03-13-10, 06:48 PM

Has anyone else noticed a sort of timer for how long you can lay down in the Captain's Bunk? Seems like you can only stay there for about 20 minutes or so. Obviously not a game breaker, but it's kind of annoying. Is there a simple change in a cfg file somewhere that can change this?

Hadn't noticed, but on a related note...

I can't save the game whilst in the bunk, because if I press Esc to access 'save game' menu, it jumps me out of the bunk back to my feet. I'd like to be able to save game in the bunk, and after reloading the game to be able to get up and go for a walk around the boat, before going up for some fresh air ... so kind of like I actually had a nap there. There should be a second shortcut key that brings up the menu, rather than this dual-usage Esc key arrangement

Quite possibly the most ridiculous and unimportant 'complaint' I have with SH5, but I thought I'd mention it all the same

How do you sleep in the bunk? I can only sit on it when i click it. And what function does the sleep have?

I have problems to stay in one place for 1 minute, not to mention to sit in the bunk for 20 minutes

Hah hah, no joke. I know, it's a really silly thing to complain about, but I often left the character there in SH3 if I wanted to read or browse the forums here (on my laptop) while still having the game run. Just can't figure out why SH5 kicks you out of the bunk after a short time. Perhaps it's bdu's way of making you work?

You can't sleep there, but you can click on the bunk to have the camera move there, as if you're lying on the bunk, relaxing.

It serves no real purpose except for adding a little immersion. Whenever you're ready to carry on with your duties, click the red 'X' in the top-right or press Esc, and you'll get back up and can walk around again.
