Don't forget to open the tube doors before firing!

Thanks, yes in fact, forgetting this will delay the firing and make a miss, unless you aim at the stern of the target which will then probably hit the bow if you are near enough.

I will soon switch to Real Navigation, because I see that SH5 has ALL the necessary map tools, and even conversion tables for calculation. Very good

General feedbak of TWoS:
Its' rock stable on my system (Win7 Pro x64) no crashes even after long play, but SH5 doesn't like ALT-TAB out of the game (even after pausing the game), mouse will get stucked often afterwards so I have to save/reload.

When this happens click on a preset like F3 or F5 and then return to the station.
I find the biggest cause of mouse locking when it happens in the attack periscope which continually locks going backwards and forwards.
Going to the Nav Map and exiting takes you back to the attack scope and problem over.
Don't forget you always have the Y key as well at anytime.

Yes, thanks TheBrebster, if it happens I simply use F2 and F4 (outside view and back to sub) but you need to go again to your station. The Sticky says to use Num-Pad 2 times, I will try it next time...
