[WIP] Das Boot Moments mod
I am currently working on a mod to try and recreate longer, more nail biting, suspenseful moments before death like in the movie Das Boot. Remember when they were stuck on the bottom, trying to repair their U-boot? I am trying to recreate those moments in SH4. I am basing this mod on my SH3 Longer Repair Times mod. But, since SH4 finally corrected the short repair times, I won't be changing compartment efficiency settings. Hooray! :p What I will be changing is the following: -Much stronger submarine hulls. Sub hitpoints will increase and crush speeds will also be increased to compensate. Less emphasis on hull integrity. -Increased compartment hitpoints and compartments no longer linked to hull integrity. Compartments will each have their own armor ratings and hitpoints. -Stronger sub equipment. Some hitpoints and armor ratings will be increased, such as batteries, fuel tanks, and diesel engines for playability reasons. -Slower flood times and slightly less weight from flooding. Flood times won't be nearly as long as in my SH3 LRT mod, but they will be somewhat slower. Using this mod will make the sub's hull less vulnerable to surface gun atacks, but compartment equipment will still be damaged as normal. I have already played an early version of this mod and the results are great (in my opinion). This mod isn't super-realistic, but I think it's fun and adds a lot to gameplay. |
