Minor Mod Soup Issue

[Travis Reed]

I tried to set up my mod soup in a similar manner to one of the 'balanced' lists. However, I've noted that with non-manual targeting, the speed is never filled in. AoB and Range are, but not the target's speed. This nearly always causes my torps to miss (unless I aim several boatlengths ahead of the target...)

Here's what my mod soup looks like:

I'm hoping someone here could help me determine which of these mods is likely responsible, and perhaps even figure out how to fix it. I would prefer to avoid having to switch to manual targeting if I can, just don't want to be bothered with it (I figure the captain and crew would know how to do it properly anyway). I have done manual targeting before (in SH3 and 4) with great success, but am finding I don't have as much time to devote to it as I used to.

With some experimentation, I've noted that there is no real problem here, as SH5 does not incorporate the auto targeting found in SH4 (and I'm playing both ATM, so I get confused). SH5's 'arcade' style shooting involves shooting at where the periscope is aimed, and lining numbers up. The UI mod removes those numbers. I'm going to look into it's configuration to see if I can restore them.

EDIT: Have found the relevant option in the UI mod and made the change.

Got another issue. My Deck Gun won't aim correctly anymore. The elevation sensitivity is way to high now resulting in the least little movement for elevation overblown. I often find that it's either at max elevation, or min elevation. Needless to say, this makes hitting anything nearly impossible even in the best conditions.

Anyone have any idea which mod is responsible? I do remember that a different load order did not have this issue.

Sobers bad weather deckgun . In real life there was no elevation on the deck gun so get close to the ship as they did in WW2 .

In your latest mod list you haven't got Equipment Upgrades patch 1, but you have it in your first mod list. Just thought I'd let you know in case you hadn't noticed.

This is supposed to be part of the Free Upgrades Patch 1.

OK thanks, I didn't know that

I actually removed the deck gun mod. I had thought it might let me use the gun in bad weather, but that is not the case.
