[WIP] Japanese Campaign

[Hitman]

That's interesting info keltos

From the text it seems the captain actually called the AOB, but then the TDC operator converted it to target course before entering it in the TDC. It also seems they calculated a solution for a set moment in the future, and the TDC did not autoupdate like the german or US one. This is difficult to simulate in SH4 with the german TDC

Yes it is taking a long time. I have a lot of Real Life issues to deal with and that caused problems with time to work on it. Plus having to learn as we go, it is taking a LOT longer than we wanted. My fault, so I guess you will have to play your campaign until we finish.

Prob a more polite way to say this, fyi.

Which IJN patrol boats don't have DCs?

As for the elco, yeah, adding them would be trivial. My suggestion would be to use the DC launchers from RSRDC. I made some "roll off" types that use a parachute-retarded charge (slower sink rate) to let small craft get away.

Clone that puppy, and up the size of the charge to match Allied types some...

I don't know if he meant to be rude or just how it came across on the board but I told him there was a more polite way to say what he said.Keep up the good work, we appreciate it.

The Atami and Hira gunboats.I plan on creating a "patrolboat/subhunter" layer for RSRD when I am home for thanksgiving, release it if possible(if lurker does not mind) here soon, in order to make up for the lack of patrols in RSRD.Atami and Hira gunboats with charges would be great for harbor patrols and shallow coastal areas as well as being "small fry" escorts in coastal areas.

Assuming I get this layer to work, plan to build new single merchant layers and replace them in my own RSRD.

Those riverboats should not be seen at sea. I don't think they carried DCs or even hydrophones. They were rivervine craft. Look at the freeboard! So yeah, as close in coastal randfom things, they could rarely be seen, but they would not have prosecuted subs, IMO.

Lurker and I both deleted these things from our campaigns for that reason. They can be harbor traffic (what a waste of 3d modeling work). So
