Ahoh Type XXI Kaleun

Hakahura · 08-08-07, 05:51 PM

The depth keeping problems I'm having are at low speeds.

I've been using GWX, since it 1st hit the ocean, so I'm quite used to positive buoyancy.
This boot of mine seems to alter between positive an negative buoyancy unpredictably.
No matter what I order, near the surface the boot just won't hold a steady depth.

Maybe I've something new to learn?

Yep....they're a pig to control

I had a topic about the GWX XXI, a while ago.
In a PM, I asked Kpt.Lehmann if they had any plans to improve this Uboat further...he said they were quite busy (as always, lol), and he couldn't promise anything.

I'm afraid the situation hasn't changed as far as I am aware

Everyone over at GWX is working extremely hard at the moment on the forthcoming release

Try set depth to 12-13 meters and you'll have a couple of metres to play with if the bouancy desides to go negative or positive

Correct...

I set it to 13 with rough weather and 13.5 in calm seas
