I haven't added the ability for your sub to launch anti-ship missiles yet, but it's a good idea and they shouldn't be very hard to add - I'll put it on the list! So far I've Quote:
It's not really possible to designate one crewman as 'hull repair guy' at the moment. You're right, could be a very useful feature though - having a chief firefighter, engineer, etc... I'll try adding it and see how well it works. To clarify, these are the three ways you can currently ensure one crewman does a specific job: - Click him then right-click the job (the damaged tile or fire or whatever) - Select him by pressing V, press O to give an order, then moving the cursor to the job and press the appropriate key to assign the task - Select every other crewman on the ship (one at a time) then press T to change what jobs they are allowed to do. Forbid them from doing the job you wanted the first crewman to do.

An hour of Sub Commander
WAR! Or is it? Norfolk, Virginia: The predawn silence of the harbor was shattered this morning when an outbound oil tanker suddenly erupted into an enormous plume of oily black smoke. Questions as to whether or not this could possibly be an accident were quickly put to rest as, before the tanker's burning hull sections could properly settle to the bottom, two container ships also outbound suffered similar fates within 10 minutes. Into this sea of burning, broken hulls, containers adrift and charred remains, the US Second Fleet sent what assets it could hurriedly muster to counter whatever grave threat lurked unseen outside the harbor. Within the hour, two frigates, a destroyer and submarine had added their burning hulls, wreckage and a nuclear reactor to the carnage, making the channel unnavigable. The port authority has secured operations until further notice and the entire eastern seaboard is now on high alert, with all US and allied forces on increased alert. Runways were under maintenance at the time so maritime patrol aircraft could not be deployed to help counter the threat, but these aircraft are now airborne and attempting to cordon off paths of entry and exit from the area with sonar buoys. Soviet officials who could be reached for comment expressed doubt that an attack had occurred, instead stating that this was likely the result of capitalist workers bypassing safety in the pursuit of profits, rather than working for the common good. In other news, a Soviet ship purported to be carrying humanitarian supplies to Havana, Cuba, was seen offloading mainly large crates of Vodka and a lot of cylindrical objects of unknown nature. -AP |

Hello all, my name is Redstorm, and I just joined the forums today. I would like to say that I love Subcommander, and the tactics you can involve in it. I just have one problem;How do you detect enemy subs?

You can detect them on sonar, like other water craft. They won't show up on the tactical display (future fix??) but if you launch a torpedo from the weapons control panel while the enemy sub is selected on LOFAR, you will be shooting at it.

I've just noticed that Google Chrome flags some versions as malware when you download them. Has anyone else noticed this?
(The zip file is completely safe, as the VirusTotal link in the first post proves. This is simply a false positive)

The nuclear missile simulation code is almost finished and seems to work really well. The diplomacy system is also nearing completion. Turns out this is a very dangerous combination...
I wanted to check something in the missile code, so loaded up the game and sailed from Leningrad out into the Baltic to fire a test missile. West Germany assumed the missile was aimed at them and began launching their own missiles at the USSR... the USSR retaliated, the US began raining ICBMs on Eastern Europe and everything went downhill from there. Two hours later:
