ship recognition

paul7271 · 09-02-07, 06:35 PM

When I open the ship recognition manual all I see
are war ships no merchant or cargo identification.I am
using SH3COMMANDER/GWX. any help is apreciated.

merchants/handelschiff are in a separate manual from the various nationality guides. the default is albania, i think you just scroll down one to get tp the merchants

Not to go off topic, but is there a way to rearrange the order of the manuals so that the default is merchants, then British next, then American, and so on? It seems like the most sensible thing would be to have the most frequently encountered threats to be close to the beginning.

indeed, but unfortunately such an apparently simple modification turns out to be a major engineering project

When you see a ship click on shiff on the UZo or Periscope view and you get the right page. Easy, no?

Maybe it only works with WO assistance activated

That is correct. Otherwise there would be no point in manual identification
