The radar antenna not rotating

meduza · 09-23-08, 02:40 PM

I installed Fumo-30 radar on the IXC/40, tested it in the port, and everything worked fine. Later I turned it on, and I noticed that the antenna is not rotating. The antena is up, the wheel in the radio room rotates, but the antenna does not. :hmm:

Also, the Single sweep order doesn't seem to work. It actually activates the Continuous sweep.

I tried to reload previously saved game just to test (backing up the original save of course), and it works fine. But my current saved game does not.

Any idea? Running GWX 2.1.

Do you have 'saboutage & malfunctions' checked under SH3 Commander? That feature is randomised every time you start a new patrol or re-load a saved game. Try saving and re-loading. Only trouble is that it may cure the original problem but you might be saddled with a worse one....

Actually, I solved the problem: the radar operator was fatigued, and when I replaced him, the antenna started turning

.

I do have another question. Since I haven't had a radar installed for a long time, I forgot, is it normal that the radar automatically turns on each time I reload a saved game?

I did. The radar is on.

I guess I have a Bernard on board.

If the bananas start smelling that's bernard disguised as a bunch of farting bananas.
