Incremental Rudder

Payoff · 08-23-09, 09:28 AM

I really miss the incremental rudder feature that we had in SHII. Tapping either ] key one time would give a rudder order in 5 degree increments, while Ctrl + ] would give the Full Rudder order. This can be very useful during a convoy attack lining up shots on multiple targets. It's an immersion killer for me to have to click a tiny mouse icon on a little dial in the heat of battle.

my 2 cents

Meh Im okay with clicking on a heading but what you ask for would be nice.

What I would really like to see is individual engine control and an end to the silly nonsense that if you lose two engines your game is over.

You do have incrimental rudder. Just click the area below the heading indicator, and you get more specific rudder control.

I think this comes down to your game play style. Some people use the mouse over the keyboard and others vice versa. I really enjoyed the SH2 rudder controls as I prefer using the keyboard over the mouse.
