Possible Recognition Manual Error
In early October 1944 while patrolling along the Honshu coast WSW of Sagami Wan in Gato, I encountered a lone ship travelling ENE at about 7 knots. My crew identified it as Soyo Maru, which according to the Recognition Manual (RM) looked to be a Medium Cooler. But on actual visual examination through the scope, the target was exactly the same (physical) profile as the Medium Heavy Load Freighter (MHLF) in the RM.
I'm guessing the ship we id'd as Soyo Maru is tagged with the wrong ID name somewhere, but since I know so little about files, etc. I'm only guessing. I do know that the Soyo Maru in the RM does not match what I saw, but the MHLF was a perfect match to the RM. Either way, it took two torpedos and sank quite nicely.

Well, Nippon Maru or not, the pics & names should match. We probably overran a folder (or two or three) in our haste. We'll look into that torpedobait. Thanks.

That issue is resolved! s7rikeback to the rescue! Now, if I could only get this #$%@ &*@## Flotillas file straightened out, we would be 99% finished... In the meantime, a small status update on what was formerly "New Construction", now known as "Treasure Island", which will have multiple starts now, one test dive and out you go on assignment:
SS-237 USS Trigger Quick Report - All times given as Pearl -11 For whatever reason, I forgot to turn on my external camera... I am getting spoiled by that thang anyway... |

Windows 10
Hello
I just moved to windows ten. Periscope view is now ways too sensitive! A small move of the mouse sends the view flying? Imposable to line up a target! is there a way to control the mouse sensitivity in the game? all other views are fine. Worked fine before windows ten. Thanks The MOD is outstanding THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!! CAPT RAP |

There is a means to lower mouse sensitivity in Win 10 to slow down the mouse movement... can be found in settings, devices then selecting mouse from the list on the left side of the window that opens up. Can find that by typing in the search of the following 'mouse settings' (minus the ' marks, of course...) Hope this info helps, Capt RAP... M. M.

USS Balao, ex-Saipan, assigned to 11-B, encountered a convoy of three merchants and several escorts. Attacks on the merchants were unsuccessful, although damaging, and these low-value targets were allowed to escape. Escorts behaved normally.
Our patrol course brought us back in contact with them that night. As we approached perpendicularly from astern, two escorts, a CH-28 and a corvette, dropped out of formation and coasted to a stop. Time was 1/17/45 @ 0325, location 42 degrees, 386 km from Taipei's central pier. We approached to within 3000 meters surfaced; they did not respond to 5" shell hits; low on ammo, we left them burning; proceeded to sink another escort; and finally chased down the merchants. PB- both guns operated normally. Thank you! |

The Sub Chasers and Corvettes' issues have been rooted out and fixed thanks to s7rikeback, and those will be in the next release. Glad the gun edits got you going fully on the Balao!

Christmas in The States
After being deployed in the Pacific for over two years, we get orders for Hunters Point.
Christmas in San Francisco. The beer will sure taste fine once we cross under the Golden Gate Bridge.

This is what happens.....
While on patrol in the Convoy College area north of Luzon, we encountered a small convoy with one escort.
the escort was dip-s#itting around and was run-over by one of the larger merchies, who sailed on. Too bad for them. And this is what happens.... nailed all four. Surfaced and took some photos. This is the best of the lot. Sink 'em all.
