When I am testing I am using an untrained crew that gives me a speed of just over 5knots 1/3 bells straight. With Bremen, that second turn is very tight. I will be re-setting the waypionts for this one tonight and will take into account that most people will have trained crew so I must allow that turn to be achievable at speeds from 5 to 10knots if speed is 1/3 bells. I must also take into account that turning rate is higher with trained crew. So a long slow turn, with trained and untrained crew will be different. |

Great, thanks. Looking forward to it, m8.

Please see post 1 for v2.2
I have re-set all harbours so that increased speed and turn rate by highly trained crew is taken into account. If you could post a reply in this thread stating your crew level, u-boat and harbour used, I would appreciate the information. |

for either precision or non-precision nav if the distance to the waypoint is > 500m then the time until the next check of distance is either 15 or 30 seconds (can't remeber off the top of my head - currently onsite at a job). If the distance is < 500m then the time until next distance check is 5 seconds. now I can change this if need be (the times and/or distances) |

Thanks for the info TDW
That makes sense now for some things I was seeing: I was working on a radius 50m and 100m from waypoint to trigger turn. On some legs, this was not the case as I would occasionally see a late turn. I had put this down to the map tools only using increments of 50. Also if you check a 50 or 100m circle against the scale bar on map, they are a bit out. I think this version will have solved all the issues from the past. There may be one turn (no2 Pallice Harbour) where I have had to use a precision turn due to its angle and lenght. This turn does cause a continuous call out of headings. I will have at look at it again with this info in mind. If there are any other issued reported that could be fixed with a change in time and distance check, that would be great |

Just got home and will try this out. But just in case I'm wearing a helmet.

Yaaahh! Trev, mah boy yah did it! I exited Bremen without having swim back! But note that when I activated the script the boat went to 12 knts instead of the 10knts the script indicated (Type VIIB with high crew points).

Don't know how to say this m8 but the problem still exists. If I leave the script to run on its own I still hit the seawall when it turns at 030 degrees. The boat insists on going at 12 knts. However, the other time I tried I manually adjusted the boat's speed to 10 knts and I barely missed that seawall (at Bremen) at 030. I was heading straight into a ship at 016 degrees.
Looks like it's back to waypoints and I'm keeping that helmet.

Ok thanks Davy for the info
Could you do me a big favour, can you try again and go to outside view. When this issue is happening take a screenshot for me. This will let me see where and if it is cause by under or over steer. Could you then try one more time and this time when 1/3 bells order is given, override to ahead slow. I may need to add a precision turn. Big thanks for your feedback Davy, it really helps me |

Maybe for tight corners you could go to all stop and reverse slow / opposite direction until the sub faces the right way (imitates tugs sort of) .

OK Trev I'll see about those screenshots.
