Use SH3Cmdr or edit the CFG file. I personally have mine set to 128 near land. This won't always help you as you will still be knocked out of TC when a plane or ship is spotted. Also at 128 TC nearby ships can be lost from visual only to be spotted again. A bit frustrating but I'm usually out of Lorient in about 2-3 mins realtime.

128 is about right

With those settings I whip through the Kaisers canal and out of Lorient

Though I do like to stand on the bridge and manually sail out most times

Default Easy Fix for Time Compression

Go to "My Directory"

Click on SH3 subdirectory to open.

Click on cfg subdirectory to open and locate the file called "main" which you'll open.

In this file, at the top you'll see a list of the time compression settings. You will want to change the proximity to land from 4 to 128. I've also changed the enemy aircraft setting to 0 so the computer stops when I'm attacked by aircraft.

Be sure you click save before you exit.

I have read so many posts on this forum of "I'm afraid of going into or changeing files". Or I forgot to do a backup. Or better yet I forgot where I
changed it. With SH3Comander you can change tc any time you want and change it back and set tc for a list of different circumstances. this reminds me of an old acronym K,I,S,S. :rotfl:

Lorient + High TC = a Bernard type outcome!

Lorient: one of the few downsides of being a Type IX Skipper
