Captains log..

Is there any news on the possibility to enter your own observations and text in the captains log?

I find it immersive to have some AAR and journal to discuss afterwards here on subsim.com.

This requirement to be online to hunt is an EPIC FAIL.

Come on Kaleun's... nothing on this issue ? I couldnt find anything, but hopefully in SH 62 it will be in it.. but on the other hand I guess it is for a developper one of the most difficult aspects to enter in a game, to open a enterable notepad. Modelling a sea is a peace of cake..

Captains Log 16 Feb, 1941:

It seems my stealthy 2 hour night approach has paid off! The juicy targets are 1000 meters off my port bow as I calculate my final parameters for surface attack. All ahead 2/3rds! Open outer...... WTF?!?!?!?!?

Server Fail/Disconnect?!?!?!?!?

No apologies will be made for my handwriting. A lot of these are scribbled down in a hurry.

In any case, I've been prepared to compromise convenience for enjoyment of the game. I'd love it if the developers could meet me halfway on this.

If only some day some person would invent a machine based on electricity or maybe magnetism that allows the task of taking notes to be enhanced or automated to the benefit of the writer.

Congrats on not reading the thread, I guess.

I already take notes on my computer too. As I already stated SH3 has some glitches that happen when I alt-tab.

I would remind you that earlier subsims had options for note-taking in game. We're not asking for the world here.
