Kiel Canal Time Compresion

Respenus · 10-01-06, 05:38 AM

OK, so I start I new carrer, go to he first Flootila, got my nice and small type IIA and we sat sail for the British cost.

And because I have GW, there is the Kiel Canal. GREAT! I will gain on time!

But I can't get time commpresion above 4X, maybe sometime to the top, but only for a short while.

I had the same prob in stock SH3, when entering Norway to Bregen port. I think it's because there is very little space and the game won't allow a bigger increase in speed (Can someone confirm that?)

Now is there any way to increase the time compresion or will I need to spend over 1 hour just to get out of Kiel Canal? And PLZ don't say it's realistic to go on slowly!

Either use SH3 commander and change time compression there or Alter main.cfg in Data\cfg look for LandProximity=
There is also a main.cfg in the SH3 folder in my documents - not sure if you have to change both

The Main.cfg in My Documents is the one that needs to be changed. After you've ran SH3 once, changing the \data\Cfg one does nothing.

Thank you very much!

I changed it in SH3Commander (didn't feel like playing with the .cfg files!
