Yes there is. It's the Backspace key.

Thanks for the replies, I can work with the + / - keys to get in and out of pause. The backspace key gets me out of pause but wouldn't pause the game but I noticed that it gets you to time compression "1" stage.
And thanks Ducimus, I had not checked the in game help yet but found all the other answers there, great mod. |

It's been awhile, but I think i made the backspace key a quick button to get out of time compression, but not pause the game every time you hit it. Cruising around the pacific, your in high TC quite a bit. I found it annoying to pause the game, and then have to hit TC once to advance it. A two count movement. id rather it one count so i can get right to the action.
Say for example, your in whatever high TC, and all of a sudden somethings going on. Radar contact, sonar contact, whatever. Hit the backspace key and the game goes to a manageable speed (X1 as i recall) so you can make decisions and what not. Now if you do have to pause the game, odds are your getting interrupted anyway. Wife, GF, kid, whatever. So a two count movement at this point is irrelevant because your getting interrupted and pulled away from the game anyway. I'm all about efficiency it seems. |

I have a small P above the time display in the lower right corner that pauses the game. I am running TMO 2.2 with RSRDC_TMO_V502 and patch RSRDC_V5xx_Patch1.

I used to find the pause key (on the keyboard) worked in stock...but backspace takes it from the time compression (say 1024) straight back to 1 and then the P icon above the time pauses. Not too bad. Unless you are running at say 8k compression and hit an atoll ... then no use cos your toast. Also, you cannot do much with pause anyway, i.e use TDC etc.

My game'll drop me to comp 8 with enough time to correct (unless I'm AFK) if I've managed to plot across an obstacle (unless that obstacle is a minefield).

Cannot set Mast Height manually in TDC
For some reason I cannot set the mast height manually in the TDC in the periscope or TBT view. It does set it to the correct height when I click the check mark in the recognition manual though. I have another installation without TMO and I can do it there but not in this installation with TMO. Is there a special "trick" to do this manually? I am playing at 100 % realism.

How can one get out of the free camera view. I hit the F12 key to look at my new sub for the first time in free view but how can I get back to the normal bridge view (not moving the camera manually again)?

Glad to be of assistance. I just started playing SH4, after playing SH3 since it came out, and I am still getting a handle on all the commands.

There is a printable keymap available for TMO, but I forgot where I got it. Good Hunting!

I re-installed SH4 and TMO and still can set the mast height manually. Is this a bug? Any input to fix this is welcome. |
