What does CTRL N do?

supposedtobeworking · 04-05-10, 01:53 AM

I pressed this key combination and it looked like some graphics changed and I'm not sure what it did or how to get it back to what I had originally? Can anyone tell me what pressing CTRL N in the game does and how to revert the changes if possible?

I never use it but I believe it changes the weather to clear sky's and calm seas and there is no going back.

This is a bad thing if you have warships near by and all the sudden your cover fog disappears.

wow okay - by saying there is no going back do you mean for the rest of the mission or for the rest of the game (i.e. every other campaign and mission you play?) - I assume you mean the former. thx

Its actually a sonar command, but will reset the screen if you use it at the cam.

The weather cycle will change with the next cycle, usually 12 hours, so no big deal.

oh okay-thank you.

No, it's just a "reset".
Depending on weathersettings in your scene.dat version, it'll sooner or later change again...
