Kiel Canal

[bigboywooly]

The secret to the auto waypoints is to set them before moving
Go to your nav and set pattern outbound

That will lay out the route
Then click follow course and away you go
If you use SH3 commander its very simple to up your TC when in land proximity
I have mine set to 128 when in Kiel

Of course if not using SH3commander you can edit the main.cfg in your SH3 folder in my docs

Best do that before leaving for patrol though

That's pretty much how I run mine as well Glad to see that I seem to be getting the hang of things if I'm doing some of the same stuff that everyone else is doing

I load up, click on my navigator, go to configure way points (or search pattern, what ever it's called), then choose Kiel out, tell my helms to get underway, then plot out the rest of my path, including comeing back and placing my last way on the Kiel in marker, then just riding the rest out. I don't mess with editing my TC settings but am able to run any where from 128 to 256 on my way back in.

No problems with the 2 flottila big boats,big torp load out, and going out a proper harbour, W/haven.

As long as I click on Kiel out before I move my boat, it all works fine. Entering the canal however, I am not quite sure where to line my boat up to. Anyone know?
