Default All Stop

:hmm: Hi All
Could someone tell me if i'm missing something, no matter which way i load a saved game, through the main interface or through the office we always come to an all stop, can we do something to change this as it's really a pain, or am i missing a reason for it, it did'nt happen with SH3 so i think it is a step backwards.
Thanks in advance for any light on the matter

Jeff

You're doing nothing wrong...

I, too, hate this bug.

Its not a bug its a feature.

Not only you are at full stop you are no longer following a plotted course.

Best action Ive seen is to wait a few moments while the computer settles down switch to map and order follow course. Adust speed to suit your needs.

Looks like they dident bother to put these values into the save game file so it looks like were stuck with it.

I thought this did happen in SH3? At least, that's how I remember it....

But yes, it is annoying, especially when you go to high TC without remembering to reset your speed/course. "Wow! Look at the gas mileage!"

I don't see it as a bug... I like it actually... The next day when you load the game, you have to look at the map, remember what was going etc... Full stop gives some time to think instead of rushing things

Obviously your not loading the game when your under attack by a plane and trying to get under or being run down by a dd, the game starts running as soon as your looking at the map, it wont help you then when your sitting looking at the map to think what you are going to do ( bang you dead )
The point i'm trying to make is, from sh1 through to 4 ( and i've been through them all ) is that the game is supposed to get better and better, it has, but if you remember the problem's we had with loading times with 3 which was a big thing, then all of a sudden were waisting time going through, starting a new career, then having to delete it then loading your own save, which i think and still say is a step backwards instead of forwards, the sh3 interface was fine, why change it, anyway, as for 3 being the same way i think we will agree to disagree
