Ghost U-Boats?

No watch aboard AI U-Boats?

Looks bad.

Anyway to mod in some AI Con Watch on these AI subs.

Shot taken in river AI sub on way to Lorient.

From "Rubini" 'Harbor Traffic 1.44 mod.

Other than the ghost subs I really like this mod.

From the Rubini Harbor Traffic 1.44 Mod readme: "3.AI uboats don't have crew on watch tower, don't move while submerge and don't fire torpedos. But they follow waypoints in surface and engage enemys with deck/flack guns. They only have a early war tower too."

I just imagine that the el capitans and their crew are down under enjoying some grub and alcohol, I mean.. since they're bolted to harbor patrol, as me and the other VIIs are out doing our dirty work.

As I just got back into this simulation (a game? surely you jest), I love this mod as it adds quite a punch of immersion for myself - I'm not sure if it would be possible to mod crew on the deck of an AI sub. It could possibly be a simple visual presentation or a more tedious task of modeling invididual crew members for the AI sub.

You get the same in multiplayer games. When I first started playing I was confused because I thought the guy next to me was "riding" blind. But the crew is simply not modeled.

Anyway I really don't understand why because the "crew-on-deck-function" is already implemented. Probably another case of rushed release :-(
