Does GWX support the following?

You obviously dont understand me here.Did I say they would carelessly abandon their watch? no,I simply expected them to don their gear before surfacing into bad weather,you know,after regular dives to conduct sound checks for example.

Different story if the weather changes while they are already up there,maybe the men from below can hand them up to the bridge in that case.

The issue is more apparent after reloading a saved game,ie,if you had them put their wet gear on prior to saving,upon reloading they would be back in their dry gear.

Is that any clearer?

NOTE: I can assure you my UBoat is a very orderly and efficient UBoat ...most of the time.

They do. If your crew is in their regular uni's in bad weather, they will be in their raingear when you dive and re-surface.

Hmm...just seems sometimes they dont.Maybe its just me.I know they dont upon reloading a saved game.
Interesting

I knew there was something nagging me.Is there a way to stop the slide out stopwatch when in views other than looking through the scopes?When I first played GWX3G I tried pressing the button on the top.Would be quite handy for timing,DC detonations,a crash dive,or a 200m dive for example.The list could go on.

They do at my boat.........after having been down. You, know if they complain that they're too hot in their rain gear when the sun is shining you could just send them down to change. Have you tried taking the same crew member down in the boat and up again...?

[Paul Riley]

Thats what I do
Well,if they dont take their raincoats off during the baking mid day sun and they start complaining,i'm gonna lob em overboard,see how cool that is! :rotfl:

Sorry, Paul, I guess I didn't understand you. The only time I have noticed crew not in proper weather gear was when the weather changed while the boat was on the surface. I haven't noticed a sub surfacing into bad weather and its bridge crew not wearing oilskins.

Roald,

It has happened a couple of times,more so when reloading the game.I guess I can live with it though,albeit a bit tedious having to manually remove then add the watch each time.

At least the game hasnt crashed since (fingers crossed)
