Auto plot in kiel Channel

CapitanPiluso · 11-04-07, 03:44 PM

Whenever I want lo leave Kiel and usa the auto plot function in GWX I always get my boat crashed.
I place my sub in the exact place prior to auto plot but I have no luck with this.

Any ideas ???

Thanks !!

On the way out of the canal you need to use the OUT option from your stationary position in Kiel harbour. As soon as the game loads and you're stationary in Kiel use the OUT option to plot a course. After that just go ahead slow and follow the plotted course. on the way in get your boat to the inbound point and use the IN option.

As Mel said
DONT MOVE
Click navigator
Click on patterns
Click on Kiel OUT
Hit return to course and away you go

For inbound
Try to get as close to the inbound marker as you can then Navigator\Patterms\Kiel inbound and again away you go

This feature went through rigorous testing before release
Even to running through at 512TC

And if you are outbound, better check again your first waypoints and possible crossing traffic...

Altough I was not moving, the game most times missed my first waypoint. I crushed 2 boats in Kiel before I figured out that I better not get myself a new coffee *before* my boat realy entered the channel.

I don't want to do new thread for my question, so i use this one. I know about GWX feature Kiel inbound/outbound "search pattern". I don't like GWX, but i like this feature. Is it existing as alone mod? I can't find it anywhere.
And if not, can someone tell mi in which files are this search patterns stored, so i can remove it out from GWX and put it in my mod collection?
I usualy don't use "services" of navigation officier, i don't like "GPS" in game, so i use modified real navigation mod, but this Kiel chanel is realy boring, so in this case i would like some automatization.
