Default Fixing the Hydrophone Station

Which different mods are needed to use it properly?

I have just changed my UI from TDW 6.4 to 6.5 and I cant seem to even rotate the wheel of the Hydrophone any more.

I have the mod called Sub_ HYD_ FIX_SH5 on my list of active mods from ages ago. Do I need something else?

Help....

Did you click on the hydrophone station to take you to the station (sitting in front of it) so you can move the wheel

Moving the mousewheel while sitting at the station does nothing? Did you move the mouse cursor to the wheel before trying to rotate it? The wheel will highlight when you are able to move it. I just tried it in-game using v6.5.1 of my UIs mod and everything is ok.

Found the problem! last time I used the hydrophone seriously in silent hunter I would just click on the face of the dial with my mouse and the needle would turn and move in that direction.

I just tried the mouse wheel and now... that is the method for moving the needle it seems. Sorry for the false alarm. Should have though of the trying the mouse wheel.
