Where can I read accurate heading of my sub, at least 1 degree? The readings on compass are hard to see clearly.

What compass? Nav Map, or interior/conning deck compass, or compass dial bottom right?
I’m afraid i can’t make it clearer

A few things I have noticed while playing Dark Waters.

Every convoy I have run into so far has neutrals in it and when I launch my torps at them not knowing they are neutrals and I kill them it affects my campaign. My latest patrol when I returned to port my carrier ended because the Gestapo carried me way for my actions.

The Type 2 torpedos are way to reliable, they do not go deep like they did in real life.

Alot of ships in the recognition manual do not have there angled views.

Neutral ships attacked my sub. An American ship attacked me when I got too close even though it was 1940.

Other then those things mentioned above, the mod is pretty good just wish there was support for 1366x768 resolution.

That’s all the interest of this mod: you have to identify ship’s nationality before hitting the red button

Type G7e II were more reliable indeed.
Have you ever seen real ship ID book? I’m not sure they had angled views for all of them

Neutral ships shouldn’t attack your sub, that’s right...very hard to get them right ingame. That just add some difficulties to the game! Stay safe undetected

(U-Boat priority)
All you mentioned above was part of OM mod that i didn’t touched.

errr a Uboot Kommander would have to be a fool to think that neutral escorts wont defend a Konvoy. And I too learned my lesson about firing at ships before 100% ID (I sunk a German destroyer !!)
And to be honest (early war) I get about 50-60% dud rate with all torps.

"Duds" have saved me more than once in that situation, though not always... anytime you shoot at a friendly or a neutral, you make yourself into an enemy of theirs for a time, hence any counter-attack(s) received.

Hi guys.
Is there any way to have VIIB turm like Kretschmer had? With wintergarten and AA gun togerher?

You’ll have to wait for 1942. The VIIB2 will be available, with AA on wintergarden and second AA on separated kiosk.

Thank you for answer. But I meant that simple tower, like U99 had.
