It kind of stinks that the magnetic detonator is on by default but these issues did happen in rough seas...

I also noticed that I have to hit the PK for an accurate display of distance, maybe this is happening automaticly and I'm just not being patiant enough... I know, go manual and I don't have to worry about learning the gimp way... I'll look into it after I get my feet a little more wet.

I DO miss the U boats abulity (SH3) not sure about uboat missions...) to change the hight of the periscope, I now have to adjust the whole boat... and I also REALLY miss the salvoes too... Not to mention I miss my proper WO... I liked working with someone to get my readings/solutions...

Oh, and no mods yet... but Real enviornments I installed last night but I haven't loaded it up yet. I've also identified many videos online that I need to watch, I'll do that this evening.

Thanks again guys, really appriciate the re-education.
Can someone tell me what in the HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL is the PK? ok ok ok am cool, ok am cool.

Good luck Ssgt_Wolverine with the manual targeting on it is alot harder than auto targeting. Er maybe you want to know how to use auto-target? Your typing is a little confusing here. anyway have fun.
