Ship Flares - Any mod doing this?
Hi all,
I'm currently reading "Destroyer. An Anthology of First Hand Accounts of the War at Sea 1939 - 1945" edited by Ian Hawkins. Believe me, this is a very interesting book, and contains many stories of close encounters with U-Boats etc. Amongst the many, many interesting stories an idea for a mod emerged when I read about convoys being attacked by U-Boats. It was common practice for the ship under attack to launch a red signal flare to alert the destroyer escorts and to warn other vessels a u-boat is operating against them. Wouldn't it be cool to see that in SH3? Picture it - slowly stalking a convoy through the night, finally getting into firing position and launching torps at the first ship. As they strike the ship - or you get a near miss - she launches a bright red flare to alert everyone of your presence and to give the destroyers a location to home in on. So, question is - does a mod already exisit for this? Thanks all! Px3000 |
