*** Nominations for Best of SUBSIM 2017 ***

[propbeanie]

oh garsh fellers, thanx... [kicks the ground gently] - we need a "Goofy" icon...


... and while we're at it:

I wish to nominate CapnScurvy for "Modder of the Year" (aka: The Mod Hatter) for his overall work in Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate, and specifically for the forthcoming updates of his compilations and settings of his and others' mods, tremendously improving them and adding to the FotRSU mod and thereby Silent Hunter 4 and the SubSim community.

I thought this would be a good time to give an update on the progress in getting AI subs into Fotrs Ultimate, and AI firing torpedoes in general. There will be 11 AI Submarines:

1 American Fleetboat
1 German U-Boat
9 Japanese Submarines

Of the 9 Japanese subs, 4 will have patrol aircraft capabilities (carry an armed float plane) which can attack from long distances.

Adding working AI Torpedoes has opened up another avenue for modification.....surface ships firing torpedoes at enemy targets along with their Deck Gun inventory. The following images show a test mission of mine having a Japanese Hatsuharu Destroyer positioned off from three stationary American Freighters, with an American PT boat approaching the Destroyer.
