Scope going up?

Drewcifer · 04-23-10, 01:38 PM

Just sort of curious why the observation scope always pops up at the begining of every patrol?

Stock "bug".

You can keep the Observation Scope lowered with python scripting. DarkWraith did that with his UI mod.

As part of the def InitializeScript(): block in data\Scripts\Menu\Page Default Hud.py, add the line in green as shown (make sure it's indented like the lines above it) below. It would be line 2816 of the default script.

Code:

    SetDepthScaleType( DepthScaleTypes.Shallow )
    InitializeMapTools( True )
    Game.SubmarineCommands.ExecuteCommand(  "Lower_whole_obs_periscope" )

def UnloadScript():
    Menu["DisplayPlayerGuidanceButtonByName"] = None

If I'm not mistaken it also goes up after loading the game (supporting JCC's 'me happy to see you Herr Kaleun' theory).
