I used a mod years ago that switched them so I thought they needed to be changed. I recently added a UI mod that changes the observation periscope view to be rectangular. Turns out you are right and by default they are in the correct location, the larger round head for the observation periscope allows for a more vertical viewing angle... which is simulated in-game, it can look almost straight up vs the attack periscope angle is limited.

Thanks for the reply.

I think your problem is a file overlay problem...
I don't know anymore but it wouldn't be Cornue's mods.. because you also have to pay attention to the scale on which you are playing..!! this one being for 1360 x 768.. it seems to me..
see with S3D in your Uboat file here in this case: Types VII
now why modify that .. if it is to have the rectangular pellet in attack see The GUI file the "TGA" it is easier to redo It seems to me ..
