DSubs - abstract multiplayer subsim

[Sybie]

Q: Does the aspect of my own sub play any role in how the enemy can detect my engine noise? I would assume if I drive away from the bandid, my engine/propeller points right towards him, its louder. If I'm heading towards him, I should be quietest. Is this modeled?


Thnx

Thnx

Correct, though the loudest aspect is broadside. But it's not really that big of a difference, maybe can shave off a couple of hundred meters of detection range. Active sonar reflection to aspect is more pronounced.

Small update:
https://github.com/Boris-Barboris/ds...ses/tag/v0.3.0

• support for completed flag of available scenario. Server-side persistence is not yet implemented.
• support for displaying and starting campaign missions in loadout menu.
• fixed zombie animals: they were not removed from the simulator on death.
• shift hotkey + drag LMB contact's tail ray to translate solution.
• proximity fuse logic interpolation to account for low simulator update frequency.
• fix weapon aiming handle incorrect dragging offset.
• increase animal mass in order to increase torpedo detonation probability.

Client sources are published at https://github.com/Boris-Barboris/dsubs_client

I'm toiling at the campaign right now.
I was also making documentation efforts for common and client parts of the code.

Hello guys!


There was a suggestion to schedule some kind of a PvP match on the arena on the weekend, and I'm inclined to give it a chance.


We will start 0900 UTC Saturday May 8th. I'll start a voice chat in Discord (in the OP post) for casual smalltalk and exchange of experience. Feel free to join us!

[Boris-Barboris]

Well, that went well (congrats to Squirrel and his Lima), so we'll try again this Saturday at the same time: 0900 UTC.

Hop in the Dsubs Discord for further announcements, so I don't flood the topic.
Thanks to all the participans, you've found 3 new bugs in just about 1 hour!

Bugifx update with small tweaks and support for watching replays from arbitrary simulator:

• make campaign label a button in scenario selection screen, unbind from onMouseEnter event (prevents unintuitive hover behaviour)
• fix right click on contact breaking merge mode
• fade out sensor data rays based on the relative age of the last ray, not absolute age
• use sub rotation as tacview vel when speed is zero
• improve error handling of coop ip address window (fixes crashes when entered address is invalid)
• add classify and describe options to waterfall ray data pictogram context menu
• simulator_id text field in replay window, A and D hotkeys for time scrolling

Added circle arena without bots (only fish) for pure pvp.
