SH5 vs SH4

XenonSurf · 08-12-18, 07:24 AM

For SH4 there is also a recent compilation done by Bleiente:

Ralles RealModPack V1.2final full

Ralles ModPack for TMO_RSRDC_OTC V1.3single Update
https://workupload.com/file/dybLZ7s

It changes the visuals, makes the interior compartment's navigation much easier but also adds a lot of realism features. It's flexible as you can take out the most realistic-demanding things to make it easier if you want.

Before trying this mod I didn't like SH4 at all, but after using it for only a little while I discover an entire new game.

But I'm too much focused on SH5 currently which has it all and is unrivaled IMO due to its automation features (scripts), just to highlight one feature in the mass.

I find the scripts a bit odd at times but maybe I’m just not using them properly. I want to use patrol scripts in SH5 but they frequently yield no results and often send me into land. What are the most common scripts you use and how do you use them to get best results.

I'm using only few scripts like Harbor Pilot for the Kiel canal, and the one for the Deck Gun with zig-zag course at full speed.

The scripts other than the harbor pilots are not meant to be run fully automatically, for best results you should be in the right situation, pause them in specific conditions and unpause them to continue. This applies especially for combat and evasion scripts, it's all about to start them at the right moment. If unpredictable events come in your way it's best to pause or even stop them and resume them later, they are of course limited and cannot account for any possible interference.
I find the 'normal' Kiel harbor pilot is still broken (the one without the canal pass).

How to use them? You launch the automation menu with one of the right icons on the map, you use the arrow to put one of the scripts until it appears in red on the right, you chose it, you select the below left tab to assign the 'x' key for launching it when you want. You can come back in this menu to pause/unpause/stop the script. If you no longer need it, remove it from the menu.

Thank you @ Xenon for the nice review.
Was a little surprised that you left no comment in my thread after our conversation.
But now I have found this nice statement here from you.
