SH3 + GWX "gute Sicht"

04-03-20, 05:10 PM

It´s always showing up in the section where you can install new gear into your sub.

Apart from this I want to know if the Telegrams have any meaning in GWX. For example I want to meet the scharnhorst when she passes the channel. Are the telegrams just makebelieve or is there really a Scharnhorst which I can meet when I move to the right spot in the right time (23. March 42, Brest I didn´t find the Scharnhorst there.)

The Scharnhorst being a capital ship will likely have it's movements scripted to historical events. So you will likely find it. But those messages are for ambiance and immersion. I would take them with a grain of salt. Especially the ones with partial location information.

The map icon reports with speed, course and time are to be trusted and can be intercepted reliably. (they also come with a radio text message) That is, there is some uncertainty about speed and course.

The "Gute Sicht" is then likely an error. Since that sounds more like a visibility report for weather. Alberich was what is now used as anechoic tiles on the surface. To dampen the asdic sonar echos. That makes no sense in that context.

According to the mission editor it passes through there. But not at that time.

You know how those "shed-you-uhls" are - they are meant to be altered...
