I believe you need to be on an outside view (bridge/deck gun/external camera) for it to work. That's been my experience, anyway.

Okay, decided to do a reinstall of TMO (without the resident evil alien takeover RSRDC mod).

It works as you described, still stating "Yes, Sir, Sweeping" however though...LOL

I guess I can take that literally as the only thing the <Ctrl><N> thing seems to do with the weather is take everything to 0 weather. "Sweeping the weather effects away so to speak, LOL". I was really kind of hoping that it was a random weather gererator change key, so that one could invoke it a few times in succession until you just came off the maxed out maximum and/or minimum weather settings. This wouldn't help at all for those periods that equally annoy me... Weeks on end of 0 weather. That's NOT real either.

I think TMO uses it as the command for "Normal sonar sweep", so it will give you that response.

I'm not sure if clearing the weather was a bug, or intentional, or something else.
