Yep, I agree with Sailor Steve:

I am sorry CVKolm, but I am not sure to understand your problem in using the existing protractor.
I can't see any use in adding a second scale, other than reproducing historical plotting tools used by Kriegsmarine, but atm you failed to support your arguments with a photographic evidence. Maybe try to explain more in depth what makes current tools useless to you...

[CVKolm]

All right guys. Here you are. The evidence
It's double scaled: red and black numbers.

Sailor Steve, you misunderstood me, not the ingame tool is useless but the reallife protractor, if it would be round. But as we can see, it's not round. By the way, i also played sh3 GWX for several years.

It was just a suggestion to make the second scale to improve this tool's functionality. It will be neded if you want to mark the player sub's position on chart manualy using landmarks, when playing with "real navigation".

Best regards.

I love you mod makes Real Navigation even more realistic. My only problem is that the marks you can make on the map are way to light grey. I saw a youtube video were someone was making lines and they were all different colors. each line was its own bright color.

Now I know that is not real but if I can't see the course I plot or the lines of were the enemy ship is heading its going to make the game so much more stressful. I'm posting this here cause this is the only map tool mod I could find. Doing a google search did not bring up anything for a mod allowing you to change colors of markings. Can anyone help me find a mod that will allow me to make custom colors OR even just make the markings and lines a lot darker then they are?

New UIs by TheDarkWraith lets you to choose the drawing color of each plotting tool. IIRC the colors you choose are not stored anywhere, i.e. they are reset to tha standard light grey every time you restart the game. In order to change plotting line colors permanently, you need to download the generic patcher by the same TDW, enable the appropriate patch, and replace stock standard colur(s) your favorite one(s).

can you make that mod work for SH 3 ?

am trying to find better and bigger nav tools for sh 3, am only doing 100% realist play, i calcul speed of torpedo and targer to get my solution, so i need to use only my tools for doing this.


i would thank you a lot if you can make these tools to work with sh 3 really ^^
