Removing wapoints
Thanks to JakJack, I found one way to quickly delete waypoints. I have seen, however, guys remove all but the first one in the flash of an eye by doing something when they have the waypoint tool activated.
Is this because of some particular mod or is it an operation that I can perform with what I already have installed? SH3 GWX 3.0 (some modes activated within) SHCmdr 3.2 Any reply to this would be most helpful, thanks. Cheers! |

The attack scope is finicky and getting it set to a half degree can be a frustrating experience. Once I get it set, I want to leave it alone until trigger time. Observation scope is supposedly easier for the enemy to spot so use sparingly. |

Seems this does not work for all versions - actually does not work at all for me

Cuppa?
On long patrols at night, whilst gazing at the stars and listening to the waves lapping against the hull of your boat, what better time than to shout down the hatch for a hot cup of tea!
Just press the "T" key and shout cuppa! I can guarantee within a few minutes, a nice cup of tea will appear on the bridge, delivered by the Cook, or in my case my missus! Works every time! , Happy New Year to you all and Good Hunting!

Assigned gridpoint BE59 - damn, either I burn most of my fuel going up and around the safe way, or I cheat and gamble the English channel. I gamble the channel. At 10PM, I run smack into a large convoy, moving west at medium speed. It's 5 Columns, a lone destroyer leading... and the freaking HMS Nelson in the middle of the pack. Holy cow. so I crunch the numbers, charge in, and salvo three at Nelson. Only two of three hit the battleship - but one's in the engine bay, so the whole convoy comes to a crawl. I'm like "Hey, 2 out of three's not bad", and then the third one cripples a Medium tanker, too . With my last torp, I hit the Nelson, and she goes down. The destroyer, pissed off, comes to take a long look, but I'm gone. And then I became a subsim member, and read about that inane, but brilliant tactic. Now I would not recommend this later in the war, when you might be chased by multiple destroyers - just because you nail one doesn't mean you're in the clear... But I come back to the convoy, now moving slowly because of the crippled tanker. I take a random shot with the deck gun, u-turn to periscope depth, and wait for the inevitable "Warship@--- Very Fast! Closing!". What happens is "Yakety Sax" worthy Now 1 AM gametime, I went on to absolutely crush this convoy unmolested, no further eels required, for something like 60k tons in one gamenight. I haven't even reached my patrol point yet Thanks for this awesome tip Last edited by bubbalou; 12-18-16 at 01:34 AM. |

Checked my logbook, it was a 119400 ton trip
I'm sitting, like, quadruple Prien's total haul. What a scrub Though, if you're having success, you'll make the historical aces look bad pretty fast :P I had so many U-boat War Badges to give out, the game crapped itself a bit until I got under about a dozen. This has probably already been said, but slow time compression (32x or less) seriously messes with crew endurance. Yes, people heal faster, but people tire incredibly fast. On the other hand, incredibly fast TC (like 512x, or 1024x) doesn't tire the crew at all - you can just show up at the scene with the people you've assigned, fresh and ready, if you use max boost. So, either book it, or use as little time-accel as possible (unless you really like micromanaging "Fritz Wagner, the petty officer" for some reason). Also, watch your time compression around docks - the lag can be absurd, you can run into a boat, you can run into a minefield of net if you're not careful, etc. Last edited by bubbalou; 12-18-16 at 01:36 AM. |

Great thread, wish I had found this one sooner!
A question though, does anybody remember the keys to reset the weather ingame? IIRC Dan said it was a debug thing that was left over and it made it into SH4 as well.

Just tested it in SH4 and it was Ctrl+Alt+N but doesn't seem to work with GWX. I was looking for the command more for a testing point of view, not for a normal career. Thank you all the same.
