S_boat not assigned to proper missions
started career driving an S-42 Boat out of Brisbane.
June 1942. about to start mission three and it is the same mission as the first two, ID94, Sink Luzon Strait 01. the issue is that S_boats shouldn't be assigned Luzon missions according to the Flotilla Definitions. they should be assigned to either Solomon Sea or Bismarck Sea missions. in fact, no boat based at Brisbane should be assigned an Luzon mission...according to the Flotilla file. i have reviewed the Flotilla.UPC file and everything seems fine however having said that i think i will go back and look for punctuation errors, upper/lower case misses, etc. BUT, this is definitely hinky.

if you like the suspense of the s-boats try my s-boat mod. it takes away the indestructible shield the stock game gives them. my mod makes them more realistic in that they were in real life death traps that shouldnt have even still been in service. there are documents that show it was a 50/50 odds it would sink on its own from being 30 yr old rust buckets vs getting attacked Quote:

please keep in mind that these (and all future suggestions) are observations and not criticisms. Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157 [C:\Ubisoft\GFO\MODS] 101 GFO_Game Fixes Only Mod v1.1 140 Webster's New Orders Bar Menu for v1.5 180 MaxOptics IV for GFO 1.1 300 Stop The Shouting 400 Screen Scroll Fix 420 - 3000 Meter Bearing Tool (1920x) i scrapped RSRD mods because they are messed up and went back to Stock+GFO+a couple of non-sequiturs. firstly, S-boat conning tower availability dates are overlapping and out-of-sync which will cause the two later tower configs to not be applied as upgrades. secondly, the Huge European Liner aka ConteVerde has a unit type =109 in its .CFG and Names.Cfg but in the .MIS Campaign Files it has a unit type= 103. this causes the ship type to be dropped from the Campaign file spawns during play and allows some Troop Convoys to consist of only Escorts. thirdly, i updated the US Boats UpgradeClass to more closely align with their relative dates of service. Here is the roster i am playing: 0 - S-boats 1 - Porpoise 2 - Salmon + Sargo 3 - Tambor + Gar 4 - Gato 5 - Balao i am restarting an S42 career in Brisbane, June 1942, so the first batch of suggestions will be centered on that combination.

If I'm not mistaken KM, those would be in the files Dan has for Webster, and are stock game issues. There are a couple of Photo Op missions that use the Conte Verde also...

Hydrophone will not display a contact that is within 4000 yds despite the fact that there is audible sound at the sonar station. here is the hydrophone display. note the solidly lit green light indicating sound contact but there is no corresponding contact type (merchant v warship) in the upper left area where confirmed contacts are displayed. without a confirmed contact, Kaleuns cannot ping for range to target. here is the tactical situation. notice the merchant at approx 023-025 and 4000 yds distant. There is also a DD at approx 060 and it also has an audible sound at the hydrophone station but is not identified.

in Flotillas, there are bad dates. 1 - 2/29, 1 - 11/31, and six 6/31 my first career started with a S42 in Brisbane. i accepted the offered upgrade to a Salmon. the next upgrade was to a Gato which means that the code skipped Tambor/Gar. enemy ships that we hit, sink so fast that we cannot surface in time to watch them.

not sure if you can remedy this but you asked..... conning tower upgrades are not implemented...at all. here is an example of a Gato, June 1943. She should be configured with a Late War conning tower but she still has an Early War conning tower. NOTE: Ignore the periodic extra spaces within the UPC data below. Those are blips in the Forum GUI and are NOT present in the UPC file.

yes i did ask, but keep in mind im no computer code guy or very understanding of how things work in the game vs whats broken.
if i cant do it with S3D or text file or texture edits then i cant do it but yes keep it coming, maybe someone has the answers for it my goal is fixing the game, thats all i care about, i dont care if its my mods or someone else that fixes it as long as it gets fixed. for me its not getting credit for fixing stuff or being a great modder, its about making the game more enjoyable for everyone |

for example, we were just upgraded to a Balao class boat. the hydrophone is NSS_Hydrophone_Ball_02. where would i find that in the Sensors_sub_US.sim file? using my genius-level intellect i have narrowed it down to one of three entries. but which one? door #47, 49, or 53?

Many Thanks!!
I joined SubSim in 2009. I have downloaded several mods over the years, that have given me immense pleasure! I hang my head, because I did not extend my thanks as often as I should have. Please accept my heartfelt thanks, and my respect for your dedication to making an interesting game into something that is truly entertaining and almost educational. Many thanks to the dedicated modders and the critiquers.
