Default How to upgrade the ObsPeriscope?

Good day for all

I saw "ObsPeriscope with ST radar" in file "Equpment" & "UpgradePack". I don't remember upgrading the periscope in the game.. How it can be implemented?

You purchase it with renown when it is available late in the War.

The super mods correct issues with it, however if you are not using a super mod, search the mod forum for a fix - because the scope will be spinning around and become unusable unless you prepare your game to use it first.

I have forgotten what I did but it wasn't complicated.

Good luck. Maybe someone will chime in...

Thanks for the reply. And could you give an example of such supermod? For example, I have TMO but the issue with the periscope in a fashion not solved, in my opinion. In stock version, and in TMO ST-periscope appears in the named files but it is not in the files of the submarines. As there is no slot to upgrade the periscope. Here I am thinking how to solve it.. By the way, a false periscope is also in the game is missing, although spelled out in different places.

You're using TMO, .... You should get it in TMO (and RFB in the right boats with the correct CT)

Here is a good detailed discussion by CapnScurvy that may shed some light on the problem of upgrades in general:

Hope that helps.

Yes, I use TMO but partially. The fact that TMO is also not ideal in terms of upgrade. I'm trying to do an upgrade on the basis of the TMO more logical and displaying the updated parts in the plan of the submarine. Currently experimenting with the type of salmon. So, the ST periscope really present in UpgradePacks.upc and Equipment.upc, but not in NSS_Salmon.upc & UnitParts5Salmon.upc (this applies to all types of submarines). It's weird, because without the prescription in these files upgrade, in theory, technically impossible. I can enter independently, but the question remains: how to do it correctly. And where to get additional upgrade slot.

Thanks for the link.
