What Da...?
So, I got the SJ Radar finally but when I went to the station and tried to switch it on- no go. What's going on here? Using TM btw.

Did you notice (I'm sure you did) the palm of the hand button which the book says is cease fire, is the button to turn on the radar, but mine is greyed out. And I don't have a cease fire button on the guns. I just submerge, they 'cease fire'  Peabody |

It's possible to THINK you have the SJ radar but you don't. Early in the war it becomes available for PURCHASE and if you have enough renoun you can buy it. It shows up in Damage control as a "KIT." However, it's not REALLY installed yet which doesn't happen until Sept '42. Until then the switches and control panel controls remain disabled. When the radar fianlly gets installed (without further action on your part, but just being at port at or after the enable date) your radar switches will start working.
Note: when that happens, use the switches with great care. They are more complicated than it appears and it's possible to accidentally disable the radar completely until you restart the game. Note2: what I described is default game behaviour. Your experience with mods might differ. Peabody: In the stock game the cease fire and radar buttons are not switched around and the HOLD FIRE button will function properly. Looks like you have a mod problem. -Pv- |

Thanks for the heads up Pv. So I've installed it and I'm in June 1942 now for a few months to wait I guess.

In the manual it shows a hand as 'Hold Fire' I don't have a hand on either gun panel. The hand is on the radar panal and if I hover the mouse over it, it is radar on/off which doesn't work, but maybe when I installed them in port, I don't have what I think I have. I have SJ-I radar and I am beyond Sept 42. Could it not be working because I am using easy mode to learn the game?  Gun panels no 'hold fire' hand.   Appreciate any info you have. Peabody |
