But due to game limitations, when your U-Boat will be snorkel equipped, you will have to activate OM_SubFlag_When_Snorkel add-on mod to keep the flag (static with snorkel)
In fact we can’t have a raising flag with snorkel in SH4, I’m sorry...
Back to work

Great news and congrats on new award

Yes, you will raise the flag while in harbor, and keep it lowered rest of time

Available next update

About next update, I’m working on making periscope much more detectable for cargos...i think we will have to be much more cautious keeping periscope raised for attacks. Furthermore after 1941...

New head up:
- AI merchants are now able to spot all U-Boat periscopes.
AI visibility has been tuned up in any kind of weather.
Be very cautious using periscope when no fog/flat sea now!
Veteran and elite cargos crew are quite good detecting you and their firing skills has been tuned up also...
But night surface attack is still doable, as veteran cargo crew will not see you up to 800M when dark night medium cloud cover.

- All U-Boat have now visual damage when hitted (holes decals)

- External camera can’t go through objects anymore now (through U-Boat, ships etc)

Available soon...

.... Also, unlocked star shells availability for 88mm & 105mm, and Anti-Aircraft shells for AA guns...for all U-Boats.

Thanks for your mod, Fifi! Well done!

I do wonder about one thing: Does the game consider the height of the periscope above the waterline when calculating the AI's probability of detecting the uboat?
