Dialog box triggered by a contact

Sure, easy: Data/Cfg/GameplaySettings.cfg. At the bottom see:

[MiscSettings]
AlwaysAutotargeting=0,0,0,0,0;for warships, merchants, uboats, air and land targets

Re-number the zeros for the default actions:

1 = Maintain current orders.
2 = Engage target.
3 = Periscope Depth.

I'm not 100% sure about the last two, but you get the idea. I have everything set to '1', which prevents the window from ever appearing or any new orders being issued.

What a relief; thank you, stork100... It's nice to chip away at all the little bummers that undermine the game.

Indeed. I just wish that time compression could be stopped when a friendly or neutral unit was spotted, like in SH3. Takes some of the fun out of identification. To the best of my knowledge a fix has never been found.

stork100: I wasn't aware that that was the case with SH4. I can live with it, but still, it'd make things a bit more immersive if there were a fix...

Interesting settings Mark. EnemyDetected=64 eh? Should spice it up a bit.
