Hummingbird?

I installed the longer u boat repair times with NYGM VER2 and also had this problem . I uninstalled SH3 then reinstalled everything without longer u boat repair times and now everything works fine . This may help or may not . cheers .

I've been doing a lot of re-testing of the upcoming malfunctions files just making sure they're compatible with NYGMv2. There are a number of randomly loaded files which send the boat to various depths upon ordering crash dive. These are to simulate problems or malfunctions in the crash dive procedure. In many cases due to the increased depth the player will choose to interrupt the CD and will then experience these "Crash Dive Blues", there's no way around it so far. I also have the latest Longer Repair Times mod installed on top of NYGMv2. So far after running a whole lot of crash dive sequences the LRT mod appears to have absolutely nothing to do with affecting the anti-hummingbird effect in NYGMv2. I could be wrong but I've seen nothing to indicate otherwise...at least with this particular area of the mod.

Thankyou Hemmisent thats great to know that longer uboat times has nothing to do with "crash dive blues" . But if i install the longer u boat times again i will lose the anti hummingbird effect . Just a side note to ask if you think it is more realistic to have contact updates on as no one bothered to answer in my previous post .

how do I go to silent running at 1 knot to get away from the escorts, DD, the slowest speed I can get to is 3 knots on the wheel speed meter.

Click on the button to the bottom left of the speed wheel and it will then display knots. Click and drag to the desired speed.

Alternately, you can edit the speeds of the sub in its cfg file so that ahead slow (or silent running) is a speed more to your liking.

I have adjusted my VIIB like this
ahead slow set to 1+kt submerged (.15)
1/3 = 2+kt submerged for depth changes (.3)
standard = 7.5kt surfaced (.45 = most efficient setting)
full = 15kt (.9 or doubletime)

[EngineProperties]
AllStop=0.00
AheadSlow=.15;.40
AheadOneThird=.30;.57
AheadStandard=.45;.80
AheadFull=.90;.94
AheadFlank=1.00
BackSlow=-0.26
BackStandard=-0.40
BackFull=-0.53
BackEmergency=-0.66

Edit: spelling

An excellent fix while submerged but Ahead 1/2 & Ahead Standard effects when surfaced might be a bit difficult for some users to negate :p
