Default HELP

Regarding the I-go submarine mod (Jyunsen MOD v 3.9.9.9.9.3), even lock the enemy ship with a periscope, the lock will be unlocked after a few seconds, and I cannot be able to strike at all.
It happen in manual aiming and auto aiming both.
Is there a solution?

How far away are you, and what are the wave conditions?


If you're too far away, you can lock on, but it will unlock after a short time. Get in closer, and it should remain locked.


If the waves are washing over your scope enough, it can also cause it to unlock from the target.

SHO Re: Periscope lock... or lack thereof..

Razark + 1

What Razark said.

Think the minimum distance is like 5-6k feet away standard, not sure what that translates into per meters... but any way, & that's with dead calm to moderately calm wave action, at best. Waves above moderate & you seriously start to lose torp lock, having to hope for a good lock & launch of your torps.

You can bump your depth up a wee bit, but in seriously heavy chop, you run the risk of broaching & being exposed... but... that's the chances you take, skippering a sub. Bad during daylight hours..

If you are lucky, and there is no moon, is darker than the armpit of a gundark, & is raining somewhat.. you may.. get away with it or be lucky enough to just run a surface attack. Which is other option for doing a torp attack.

Myself, I go for remaining unseen, as is possible... but... that's just Me.

Hopefully, this info helps...

M. M.

Default About mod

https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/dow...o=file&id=5029

I installed this mod (SMS Konig mod), but it doesn't work.
I use SH4 with U-boat missions and it's ver 1.5.
Maybe something is wrong in mod file. SMS Konig is not show in single missins and career menu.

Tell me how to fix it.
