when we are on patrol, the crew is supposed to mind their station by keeping their eyes on the gauges and their ears in the headsets. do you want to live? then pay attention to your job.

Guided missile attack?
Sailfish, ex-Fremantle, on 5/16/42 @ 0325 at a position 405 km, 50 degrees from the central wharf at Balikpapan received two reports within the same minute. The first was a single incoming air contact, later determined to be a Pete, which was coming from the NE at a distance greater than 17.5 km. The second report was of the boat taking damage, accompanied by the usual sounds. The actual damage was to the AA and deck guns; there was no hull damage nor casualties. The boat had been surfaced and static for the preceding two hours.
We submerged for a minute, then surfaced to scan for a possible second plane we'd missed: nothing, except for IDing the incoming Pete, which soon attacked and missed. Prior to this session, I had started the game from the .exe in File Manager as always, but it had opened in a flashing, separate tab on the taskbar. I closed it out and restarted; this session opened normally. |

I had a thought about your question of are there background programs running. (sometimes my thoughts come slowly these days) I said I don't have any, but it occurred to me that I do leave Outlook mail running, and it checks for new mail every ten minutes. running FOTRSU 1.46 now with no gauge problems yet, but I think I'm going to try stopping the email while I play. I may stop my calendar program too. It has been known to take over the screen, which 'kinda' says it's running.

When you say, ''running FOTRSU 1.46 now with no gauge problems yet'', is that from say.. the last game save, your running.. or a whole fresh career there.? M. M.

Recently I'm a little busy with work, Maybe after ten days I may have a test as well to see if there is really some purpose of this intermixing. |

I have been attempting to spreadsheet the towers and their R Nodes, as well as the equipment and other slots, and all I have managed to prove thus far, is what we had already suspected with surface radar not upgrading on certain boats because they don't have an upgraded conning tower that can accept the antenna mount... but I have added another bit of evidence to that proof in the R04 Nodes on the P_01 and related towers, which would be the Narwhal, Salmon & Sargo. If you get the 02 conning tower upgrade, no problem, you do get radar upgrades after that just fine... so, now, what to do about this info, and why did the devs use a slightly displaced R04 node (other than to fit the antenna - why not displace the antenna instead??), as opposed to the "regular" R01 node that all of the other boats use? So in that regard, I added another question to the original gauges investigation... lol - this also has a tendency to take the conning tower out of the equation for the stuck gauges, since the Tambor has a Gato-style Radar / Sonar set-up in its conning tower, not the P_01 type. Identical listings, in fact, just named for the Tambor instead of the Gato... This is where a boomer would come in handy... make a clean sheet of glass, and start all over...

Previously I checked the "Sensors_sub_US.dat" in Library and found there are many types of SJ radar mounts, which may cause problem easily. That's the drawback of the game itself. I agree with you that if the game only change the antenna, things will be be better. |

not really anything to add here yet, we'll just hope it stays that way. finishing up patrol 2, probably get some areas near Honshu on patrol 3.

USS Sailfish, lost with all hands at the northern end of the Makassar Strait, mid-May 1942 during daylight hours, to an apparent guided missile attack from a presumed Betty coming in from the NE at a range greater than 13.5 km. We received the radar warning just as we were hit. The initial attack did only 9 points of hull damage (20 points cumulative) and affected the engine room only, but the flooding was unstoppable.
This is the second attack like this in the same area, though the first resulted in only minor damage (that game was abandoned; this is a fresh start from base). Depths are 1000 meters plus, so mines are very unlikely; there were no sonar contacts to suggest a possible submarine in the area. As we submerged, there were no visual contacts via the external camera. Later we heard the radar contact's apparently ineffectual attack (no increase in hull damage). Also, should there have been any harbor traffic in Balikpapan? |
