hi

i do;t know if this is 100% Realism: somethink like this

time/date Position (ie lat & longtitude ) course, weather (wind speed/direction, sea state:

Time intervals ever 2 hours

when i was at sea i would to it every hour but thats me and it was a sailing ship

if you have the time it would be nice
How they did it on a uboat i have not got a clue

it was nice of you to ask. you have done so mush.

when I was in the Navy we changed watch rotations every 4 hours. So without much information to go by until someone can provide the exact details I'll do this:

- every 4 hours I'll have it make an entry into the ship's log denoting:
- Position (Lat and Long)
- Course
- Weather
- and whether following a waypoint or not

In my current 100% campaign I'm not even using waypoints. There's just a little bit of drift happening, especially in bad seas, so it's kind of fun to have to manually plot a bearing to head in and just hope you stay on course. heh

I actually added a new user option for the regular time interval that it makes these entries: JournalEntryIntervalTime. You specify the value for it in hours.

Thanks for your new version 2 09, in attack periscope view the angle at bow and bearing dials get hidden by the tactical map when toggled and so does the manual auto imput button, and we can now toggle the attack ''TDC'' dials in the nav map what is the purposeof this?? as you can toggle the map view when you are in periscope view with all the dials in view ??
otherwise this is superb.

I was told to gargle with asprine when I had my tonsils out and salt water yuk!!!

I think you're trying to ask me what is the purpose of having all the TDC dials and being able to toggle them on the nav map? If so, there are times when I've setup my solution (fast 90 or whatever) and I'm just sitting there waiting for the ship to come into position. Since I'm submerged with scopes down having all the TDC dials on the nav map allows me to adjust my firing solution without having to raise the scope. Since my contact line is updated by the sonarman showing me where the contact is in relation to my sub I have all the information and tools I need to do my firing solution straight from the nav map.

EDIT2:

Here is the bugfix for that problem:

Finally settled on what I'm having the new user option (JournalEntryIntervalTime) give as far as info wise when it's update time. It gives: Position (Lat and Long), Course, Speed, Depth (Surfaced if surfaced else depth), Fuel, Fore batteries, Aft batteries, Compressed air, CO2, and weather

The JournalEntryIntervalTime defaults to a value of 6 (6 hours)

In this screenshot I've had 4 automatic journal entry writes. One at 3am, one at 9am, one at 3pm, and one at 9pm

Wow great! Does the weather report work if you're submerged at the time though?

Edit: apparently it does (second reading in that screenshot).

TheDarkWraith I sent you a PM, could you read it please?

Thanks.
