Sleeping Crew !

Aras · 10-14-13, 05:18 AM

Just decided to check the weather and visibility on my own and climbed to the conning tower to get some fresh air, to see that my crew is sleeping ! A Crush Dive order is issues just after as a punishment, it was fun to watch them to get inside in hurry

Never get rusty

After locking to the ship with Uzo :

What would you do if you were in my place

I think your watch crew just earned them 5 extra shifts of torpedo moving and maintenance...

If they continue like that with airplanes or destroyers you won't last through to 1945

Bit of a harsh punishment?

"Take her down to 500m, LI!"

My intention was awaking these sleepy man with half opened half closed eyes, not to kill them.

It happens. If you do not go up on top once an hour to do a thorough search for 10 or so (real) minutes, you miss a lot of stuff.

Or not.

I just brought home 65K tons. yet I laze around in my bunk all day.

Much better way to scare them...hover your face 2 inches from theirs when they wake up...

Ah! I see the crew having a "Bernard" moment. The issue is the game rendering engine having a longer draw range before coming into "detection range." The player can see the ship as clear as day because it is in draw distance, but because it is outside visual detection range, you cannot lock on or do anything. Your only option is learning how to read the stadia lines on your UZO or periscope and do it yourself.

Out of Visual Detection ! It was around 3700 - 3800 meters away

I know it sounds crazy, but depending on the mods and weather conditions, I have seen the same thing happen.

At least H.sie's hardcode fixes fix night visibility to something like 3000 meters at moderate to good visibility.
