Some noob questions...

I've looked everywhere I can think of and not been able to find a tutorial for efficiently determining if an intercept course is possible given semi-distant position, course and speed reports. Obviously some are obvious but how do I make the closer calls? Part of the problem is that I can find nowhere that actual values are given for the speed terms, slow, medium, fast, and very fast. Can somebody tell me?

4. I found what I believe is a bug in that my CO2 levels sometimes fail to reset when I surface. I find if I save and then reload the save all is well but is this something that is well known? Has it been reported? Where should I report it?

5. Not sure what all is even possible in MODS but I'm assuming that making the difficulty settings related to torpedo targeting more granular is NOT possible. Is there someplace to suggest such a thing? i.e. I think that auto-targeting of torpedoes is a bit easy, I'd love to be required to identify the ship type but am NOT ready for the full on calculations. Getting reliable readings as to ship speed and range from the sonar-man would also be great if they were separately electable.

3. I don't have any kind of system to work that out. Basically, with experience, you'll learn to judge.

4. Known bug, You found the solution. Apparently it happens when you "alt-tab" out of the game. Some people have reported other problems, especially save problems when "alt-tab"ing out of the game.

5. Go to the mods page and just go through it and see what people have done. There are super mods that make a large amount of game changes and there are mini-mods that just change one or two things. Going through the forum, you'll hear a lot of talk about TMO, RFB, RSRDC, OTC, Operation Monsoon, and Traveler's Mod. They are all super mods, each with it's own changes. Well worth testing each one.

And welcome aboard!
Now stop playing computer games and get to work scrubbing the deck.
