[REL] early Vosper MTB

Hello,

depends on the sources; some state the MTBs had sonars, some state they hadn't. Personally, it do not think they had.
I added early versions of hydrophones/sonars, to make the MTBs a bit more challenging.

I see, is there a way to remove sonars if I find it too chalenging ?

Yes.

Locate the file NPT_Vosper72.sns (... data\sea\NPT_Vosper72), open it with a text editor, find [Sensor 2] and [Sensor 3], replace the entries following LinkName= by NULL.
The desired result should be:

[Sensor 2]
NodeName=H01
LinkName=NULL
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

[Sensor 3]
NodeName=N01
LinkName=NULL
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

Thank you, did you also added the ability of depth charge to this unit ? I'm looking at the model 72' in the web of it but I can't see DC emplaicement ?

The model has the correct depth charge loadout of Vosper MTBs.

The 70' version could carry a maximum of four but were optional.

... and some 72''s had 8 roll-off racks ... the typical number on 72.6''s was 4.

Sailor X, in case you do not like MTBs chasing you, locate the file NPT_Vosper72.eqp, open it with a text editor and change the LinkName= of the W01 to W04 entries to NULL.

Ok so I removed sonars but left DC emplaced

IMO motor boats are too small units for effective sonar duty..
