Backing away from the attack scope

Amanuensis07 · 03-26-07, 08:45 PM

Am just getting around to learning SH3 and I'm having a few awkward moments.

Most of them are or eventually will be under control.

But there is something that is driving me nuts.

I really want to move around the submarine as much as possible without using shortcuts because they lessen the imersion (at least for me).

I can get myself to most posts on the boat without shortcuts. The problems start when I want to leave a post.

Is there a command that causes you to stop looking through the periscope and take a few steps back? If so, is there a separate command for each periscope? I think I managed to step away from the observation scope once, but can't figure out how to do the same with the attack scope. Which is a shame, since I really like the conning tower graphics.

I really wish you could go through more of the doors (mostly because I want to inspect the engines and the torpedo tubes). And I really wish I didn't have to always give commands to both engines at the same time (I really want to execute a turn by putting one engine full ahead and one full astern).
