did your katana/periscope survive the hit ?

glad all is well again, the torp problem might have come from me messing around with the .sim...

I wanted to remove all premature and other torp problems, since the french told me their torps didn't have those problems (though the british did)

they did but in the seas around Norway and most of the time around 600 m away from their target...

armor level turret asashio = 30

made a turret.zon with armor of 30 that encapsules both turret and turret base
left kiosk armor as is (till i get a better answer than "lightly armored" )

added 45 star shells to .sim of turret

moved spheres in tower2 and 1
moved boxes in tower2 and 1

now v 1.7.8

I'm betting that lightly armored pretty much means sprinter and machinegun proof. Probably up to stopping the machine guns the merchants like to use.

so that would be what ? 25 mm (one inch) thick armor ?

I know IJN subs weren't machinegun proof from my readings ! one was nearly sunk by strafing only, but reported holes up to 25 cm across !!!

that wouldn't happen with a .50 machine gun now would it ?

An inch seems a bit thick, as when I visited U-505 the pressure hull was an inch thick. But then again, all sources I can find on the thickness of sprinter protection does indicate about 20mm of armor for sprinter proofing.

Is there some reason this wouldn't run with run silent, run deep for 1.5? Every time I fire it up, the Surcouf's textures are all screwy and the conning tower won't show up.

these are rsrd 's most important files as they state which sub is used and what the missions are..

but that should not mess up the textures. I dled rsrd and will take a look

keltos
