Set Keys Issue???

von hally · 04-01-08, 05:53 AM

lo all

have just started using the brilliant set keys programme last night.

i set "periscope depth"-"depth under keel" report-and "cut to outside view" under the existing "P" button on my keyboard.

its working fine ingame....but the depth under keel report is always 0 meters.

is there something i can do to fix this??

any help would be appreciated

cheers

Ermm... You could stop dragging your keel on the sea floor... I know it's handy for scraping off the barnacles, but you've no room to maneuver....

Seriously, sorry. No idea.

Do you have officers manning the navigator and watch stations?
I have the depth under keel order tied to the crash dive key, and it works fine.

There's 2 depth under keels, the one you're using gives 0 depth, you want the other one.

That is correct. It has been so long ago that I started using this key combination, I forgot that one of the depth commands doesn't work.
