Default huh

Well, that wasn't one day, but four... I wish I'd know when Im awake, and when asleep...

So, the good news is, that I have the beta up and running for

newinteriors 2.0.

As soon as I have time, I can add the required entries to the newinteriors 1.0 and GWX 3.0 Gold commands.cfg.

Another good news is that I was able to run a few more tests for my "target speed calculation while you are moving fast" method in gwx 3.0 gold, and the results was 80-90% accurate. To tell the truth, my dead stop calculations are only a tad better, if better at all, so it isn't a bad result.

Advice is that to do the calculations at least three times, as close as you can, in a parallel, or almost parallel course, and then stick to the most propable. It shouldn't be worse than 1-1- knot differences anyway.



In maximum three days I will upload the first beta version of the mod (only for newinteriors 2.0 yet) for testing, and I will create a new topic for the "manual speed calculation while moving" method.

The mod will need a decent readme, AND a troubleshooting... Not mutch work left, but I can't rush this, without a few hours more testing.

Thank you for the patience!

Good winds, and Godspeed

P.S.:
The testing occured on a (real time) three day (SHIII time: only half a day) convoy pursuit, when I managed to destroy 11 ships, including all four destroyers. 4 ships of the convoy left burning, and continued course, as I ran out of even the AA rounds... Managed to abandon the convoy, survive depth charging, finish off the stopped, sinking targets, and catch up again with the convoy in three attack runs.

I noticed some serious... superhuman Mis(?)behavior of the 1940 british destroyers, but I still need to clear, and write down properly for a GWX 3.0 troubleshooting question, if they going to answer at all.

Either I'm right, or Im releasing an oilslick only visible to the british, since I left port, AND british destroyers have ASDIC installed not only in their fore area, but on the two sides aswell... 330 degree coverage. God is clearly with them, as Buchheim wrote XD
