WELCOME ABOARD!

In the original Silent Hunter pushing the '[' or ']' keys would give you five degrees rudder, and pushing them again would give ten degrees, all the way out to full rudder. Pushing Ctrl+[ or Ctrl+] would give full rudder.

SH3 and SH4 won't do that, but you can use the mouse to click on the little button by the compass. Then you can click on the number of degrees you want, from 1 all the way to 35.

Or, as Jim said, use that mod. With it if you hold down the rudder key it turns and keeps turning until you let go. Of course it's still full rudder, nothing less.

I usually point the periscope, UZO or binoculars in the direction I want to go and hit the '=' key.
