[REL] patSH3r - Reborn

Hi Fader_Berg,

good news! There is still much room for improvements!

One question: Why don't you start from H.Sie's patched exe for injecting the new code? I guess this would save a lot of work and time because re-doing H.Sie's work will be A LOT of work without benefit for the community.

Regards, LGN1

Going through h.sies patches is a good way to learn his findings and catch up with the program flow (where things are at). But ofcourse... If I find something that steals my attention for a bit, I won't hesitate.
There is a huge benefit for the community. First of all, I share my code to you all and everyone is welcome to join in at any time. Second; it's mainly written in C, which is far more simplier than assambly to cope with. I think we'll reach a larger developer base.

Good news

Will they also add "Added crew rotation" for new version?
This was no longer compatible with h.sie / stiebler.exe.

I'll look into it, but I don't know when.

r24:

• Added profile_name

Profile name

Lets you choose an profile name for your SH3-installation, (if you've got multiple). The game data will be stored under your personal SH3-directory, in a folder named as this profile name.

That is marvelous MultiSh3 is not working for me so maybe this will help.

r28:

• Increased the random spread in WO range estimation error (from 1-3 to 1-5). It was a bit too chunky.

H.Sie's work isn't open source is it?

[Fader_Berg]

r16:

• Code clean-up
• Removed inaccurate_wo
• Added wo_experience

Watch Officer Experience

Range estimation will suffer penalties if the WO don't have the Watchman qualification and/or is inexperienced.

[Fader_Berg]

r17:

• Added wo_targeting

Watch officer targeting

Watch officer will give bearing and range to locked target (or pointed to with UZO). If no target is locked, the closest ship is reported.

The sun is rising again for the moding of sh3

did i get it right ? no patching the .exe is needed ? just dropping the files in sh3 folder ? this is...heaven mate

also, this new feature you added ,WO giving range estimations for the locked target (and not for the closer ship) is more that needed and usefull !!!
i still remember the damn destroyer getting into WO eyes as closer item when i was looking for the large cargo


thank you very very much for these stuff Fader_Berg


question:
do you believe that is doable to alter the target's behaviour (routines) and make them 'smarter' ? you know , i am talking about if we can get rid of this silly zig-zagging (but staying on their current course) when the u-boat is detected or when they are attacked by torpedo

Everything is possible, but I'm not sure I can do it. It sounds hard to find where this code is running and I don't think I'll look for it in a long, long time. Maybe if I just happen to run into it.

It's really very interesting, especially new WO behaviour depending on his experience .
What would you like to include in this mod in near future?

[sublynx]

Range to the locked target!?! That's extremely useful Thanks a lot!
