[REQ] no ships on map but keep sonar lines

Sailor Steve · 04-30-07, 11:07 AM

The 'Assisted Plotting Mod' did this for SH3. You had sonar tracks, but the only time a ship appeared on the map was if you locked onto it, so you only had the targets your 1WO might put there as you called them out.

I'm hoping someone does this for SH4 sometime.

Sure, it was an original idea from the RUB team

and I believe Beery has already added some of that to RFB -dunno cause I'm not using it yet- so probably the best thing would be to ask him.

RFB has a version of the old RUb assisted plotting mod - this one done by Iceberg. Observer also has one out based on his own SH3 version. Those wanting just the assisted plotting mod can find Observer's mod in the thread at http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=108998, while those who want an assisted plotting mod all tied up with a bunch of other realism mods may want to check out the latest RFB mod at http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=111770.

Beery, what does the assisted plotting mod in RFB do? I've never noticed any difference from vanilla in this area.

It's in the new 1.21 and 1.22 versions that just came out. It wasn't in the earlier versions. I think the 'No Map Contact Updates' thingy needs to be unchecked in order to see it.
