What campaign is this??? Its not the stock one is it?

Also i'll ask this to you since you seem to be an FFG type. In your first AAR you were tasked with backing out of port, ive tried this but i can not get the APU's to work. Lowered, energized and i set course but no movement. Do you use them with the engine controls or are they just one speed?

Nop it is not stock campaign...u need to download it separatley...

And for APU..they work only on low speeds and they give u low speed .If u r stationary at dock and u want to back up u can use this short checklist:

1. lower both apu
2. set them to 180 degrees
3. energise them
4. when your ship starts to move(depending on currents it can take up to 1-2 mins) wait to clear the dock..use rudder OR/And apu orientation to rotate ship slowly as u leave the dock....
5. when u r clear of peers and pointed in right direction rise apu and give order to move ahead with main engines

BEWARE: it is like dancing with elephant...she is slow,not so manuverable on low speeds,and has HUGE amount of inertion...so u must think in advance(u have to lead the lady,dont allow to lady leads you,it is bad for your reputation) :rotfl:

It used to be available on Bill's site, ( http://www.subguru.com ) but since it ships with the European version I guess this is no longer the case.
I might be wrong though, so if anyone cares to enlighten me...?

The RSR campaign will ship as part of the 'extra content' of the European version. Expect it to return to my site sometime after the BlackBean Games version is released.
