How realistic do you play SH3

I use a hodgepodge of mods from different sources, but one I always make sure I have is RUB's 'Assisted Plotting Mod'. Since you're using RUB, I assume that's what you mean about the realistic map. I love the way the contacts only appear when you "call them out".

Also, I too use the WO assistance, and I agree he would be better if he took a little time...and made the occassional mistake.

Thanks!

Been reading the forum for a week or so and it seems like a good 'un.

What's the Assisted Plotting Mod and what do you mean by "call them out"? Is it something included in RUb?

Yeah, I was a bit vague about the map updates thing. In a nutshell, I think that the map updates option in stock SH3 is (IMO!) unrealistic ON and unrealistic OFF. I installed RUb and fiddled around with some cfg files and ended up with a happy middle ground where I get some info on the map, but not the equivalent of a satellite uplink like in stock.
