Problem with IXC and Flank speed!

Enchanter · 01-04-07, 07:35 AM

Well heres an odd one, I station a full watch in the engine compartment, order Flank Speed and the dial gets set to All Stop! Of course...that means my sub stops...
Anyone else having this problem?

are you using SH3 commander 2.7 ?
if you are
just disable the malfunctions
that helped me

Jimbuna · 01-04-07, 07:43 AM

I'll guess your using SH3Commander and you have the malfunctions option 'on'

danlisa · 01-04-07, 07:45 AM

Yep, malfunction setting.

I had this happen to me during an aircraft attack, not pretty.

Enchanter · 01-04-07, 07:47 AM

I'm running SHC 2.6, but I'm downloading the update now. I'll check the malfunction option is off. That was quick! Thanks guys

Morts · 01-04-07, 07:47 AM

No Problem

Did we say Welcome to Subsim?

Guess Not.

Welcome to the best forum, ever!!

Sounds like one of the malfunctions files hit. You can do one of two things. continue the patrol knowing that your deisels are giving out reduced speed or save/exit/relaunch. usually you'll find that your "chief" has managed to repair the problem.

Or simply disable malfunctions in commander if you're not into that sort of thing.

or you can change the speed-meter to the one where you can pick how many knots you wanna go
andjust press it all the way up

Thanks for the welcome!

I'm checking through the options of the SH Commander now, but I'm not seeing a malfunctions button. Is it in the game?
Also, I'm thinking that for a touch more realism, it does make sense to leave it. It's not as if the subs ever went to see in perfect condition, and a little extra realism is humbling...

Enchanter · 01-04-07, 08:12 AM

Oh wait... I found the malfunction option. It was hiding in a little corner under one of the torpedos...and it's now off! I was weak

Welcome to subsim!

Now, go test the top speed of the IXC in the English Channel. Its the perfect spot to do it, as the channel is slightly downhill.
