Wouldn't it be better and more consistent to set it to TCxOnMessageBoxTextDesiredTCLevel value?


As to the script I came to this so far:
[COMMANDS]
Activate_NavMap_Station,0,0,0,0,0,0,1
Set_Time_Compression,128,0,0,0,0,0,1
Set_new_depth,20,0,0,0,0,0,60
All_stop,0,0,0,0,0,0,5
Report_nearest_sound_contact,0,0,0,0,0,0,10
Surface,0,0,0,0,0,0,60
Set_new_speed,7.5,0,0,0,0,0,3240
Loop,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0
[COMMANDS_END]

If Trevally. doesn't mind I'd publish it after some more testing as a mod.


EDIT: Also if you put it into a command, it won't give user ability to terminate the script on an event. Also it won't let them to terminate the script on other contacts (like a plane). You would also need to modify number of options for some commands only, which would be inconsistent, wouldn't you?


EDIT 2: I found a bug: script doesn't recognize that game TC level changed and its [internal?] clock is still set to x128 when the game is for example in TC1.
