no, you cannot "correct" this.
it is now part of the TMO_BH legend.
people will come from all over the world to see trucks drive on the water and the angels gather to sing about it.

It was funny watching those trucks zipping around.

I agree. Absolutely.
Leave the racing amphibious hover trucks and cheering angels.
They are unique, hilarious, and completely random.
You just can't make this stuff up.
If they existed in real life back in the 40's (and if I was alive in the 40's) I would make the journey across the Pacific to see such a surreal and wonderful spectacle.

To anyone in the know,


Were the secondary scopes, ie: night/observation scopes the same length as the attack scope? I'm observing 2 IJN DD's at twilight and tried to use the observation scope but it is still under water at 55ft on my Sargo. The PD setting doesn't differentiate between the 2 scopes.

best i can tell, both scopes have the same height and performance characteristics.
something else is amiss if you can see out of one and not another.

just had another thought....
something i cannot determine is if one sits higher in the boat than the other.
THAT would cause the behaviour that you are experiencing.

That appears to be the issue. I assumed both would be the same.

Attack scope is on the left.

make yourself a personal mod folder (if you have not done this already) and copy \library\ussubparts\sensors_sub_us.sim into it.
use S3ditor, find the offending "extensible" and make the max_height a bit longer.
