[REL] Ship inertia

TheDarkWraith · 07-05-12, 11:06 AM

This mod will give the stock SH5 ships inertia. They will no longer accelerate in the water like a race car or stop on a dime. If you manage to shoot off a unit's propeller's it will coast along in the water for some distance before coming to a stop (like in real life). No longer will escorts or warships instantly accelerate to top speed to avoid incoming torpedoes either.

To install: unzip to MODS folder and enable via JSGME

Change log:
v1.0.0 - initial release
v1.1.0 - large warships now have a larger turning radius
- merchants turning radius has been increased
- ships no longer slow down as much in high seas
- adjusted GC and drags for units to make them 'heavy' in waves. They no longer bounce around like rubber ducks on the waves but rather cut through them

v1.1.0: http://www.mediafire.com/?oyplz9gznuwhqo1

Hi TDW

Should make things much more interesting especially with IRAI enabled. Hunting convoys will be a new experience. The only downside to the mod is that there might be possibly more collisions between ships now, especially if IRAI is enabled

Anyone have any idea what the prop factor does in the sim file? I've been playing with this value but I don't see any appreciable changes in the unit's behavior

Maybe ,that need to redo the AI ship ?

But ,Something must said how boats avoid the collision

(editing the range collision

)

Edit :

prop factor

do you mean log factor ? i use that on the TDC ship range wheel_A

The devs made it so that you cannot modify a unit's collision avoidance. I can change anything I want (to a degree) regarding unit AI except for collision avoidance

Thanks mate,

Fresh smart modes are nice surprise...

volodya61 · 07-05-12, 12:22 PM

Thanks TDW!
As always..

Will it work for the ships of the OHII or only for stock ships??
Can I enable it on patrol or in the bunker would be better?
Thanks for reply..

Works only for stock ships. Every ship has to have it's .sim file edited to make it have intertia. I'm not editing all the extra ships added by OHII or Eukel, they can do it themselves. I'll tell them how to do it if they ask

Should be able to enable at any time

This mod is a must.

Warfox · 12-08-12, 11:16 AM

There's still not a know fix for TDW Inertia CTD?

I would try to do it myself but i don't have neither the time and the knowledges

THE_MASK · 02-11-13, 07:59 PM

Is this still required ? . or does the patcher do something similar .

yes - i have the same problem. tested it with TDW Torp Tutorial. looks like TDW Ship Inertia 1_1_0 kills the sound. tested it with different mod orders - no difference...
