Well, I'll keep looking into it and see what I can find. There is a connection between the two, but for some reason I don't get the graphical glitch. I'm sure once I find out where the connection is, I can correct it. Unfortunately, I'm running low on time today so it may have to wait until Tues/weds. I'll keep you posted.

Heh, no problem Xant, you did all the hard work on this one though. And if you got some time and wouldn't mind helping, I could use a hand. Looks like some people are still getting the Naxos bug on the snorkel when using the Type IX. I can't really work on it much more today, but I'm trying to find out why and where the snorkel and the RWR are connected for the sub.
Once we work that out, we can probably tweak it so they are independent.

i found another Bug :P
when u drive the XVIII into XXI converted sub, at batteries and with a speed of 1 third (the lowest speed u can choose, not sure if it is 1 third in english) then the batteries went empty very very fast. Somethink like double as fast as using a speed of 2 third. Also u cant switch to silent running mode. The button want get activated, the speed doesnt change u can hit that button again and again and nothing happens. |

@Delareon
I'll add that to the list then. I thought I'd taken care of the Type XXI speed bugs, but apparently not. That fix is fairly simple though, just some simple number tweaks and I'm sure it'll be all set. As for silent running, I haven't seen that one myself yet so I'll have to look into that one further.

Well I tried it with both the IX-D2 and the XVIII.
I have the Direct2Drive version (I'm from Canada). Balkon Gerat hydrophone works 100%. Picks up contacts surfaced, sumberged, snorkeling or not snorkeling. Can go to the hydrophone station and use the hydrophones manually. I also tried the default hydrophone the IX-D2 sub comes with in the 1944 career, can't remember which one it is, but it worked too. Silent running also works, whether you are snorkelling or not. I use the hotkey and didn't try the interface button. I was periscope depth. The only problem I can see is the CO2 bug while snorkelling. You can snorkel for hundreds of miles, do a quick surface, then go right back to snorkelling again. My only wish is getting a radar-detector mounted on top of the snorkel . |

Hey guys, I'm back in town again. I'm gonna get back to work and try to figure out these bugs again. Is anyone still having the battery issue...where they drain too quickly at 1/3 and last longer at 2/3? The Type XXI should be able to go about 340nm submerged at 5kts without snorkeling and recharging.
I'm going to mess around with the speed issue myself and see what I can come up with.

I think I see a trend that will make submerged range at various speeds borked. I've tested it with various numbers and all have the same results when combined with the high max submerged speed of 17kts. Battery endurance figures seem to be tied into the code heavily. I believe that a setting of 2/3 is coded to provide better endurance.
Because I changed the default submerged values of the Type XVIII to match the XXI, a setting of 2/3 still provides longer ranges despite the enormous speed increase. I'm not 100% certain on that, but this is what I'm seeing so far. As usual, it's another issue I'm going to have to spend more time working with more in-depth. I know there are ways to work around battery endurance so I may have to inquire with the modding experts on this one.

What's new with this mod? I haven't heard from anyone in almost 2 weeks - not that I'm rushing you. Tnx.
