Default Not getting encrypted messages from BDU.

I want to use the Enigma machine. I have it loaded in JSGME.

My orders are not coming in encrypted.

The readme in the mod says :

for TWoS v2.x.x
Optional addon for ultra realistic U-Boat warfare experience. You'll have to use "Enigma" machine in order to decipher your combat orders and other occasional encrypted radio traffic.


* enable the addon in port

Thats all I can find.

I'm supposed to "enable the add-on in port"?

Where and how do I do that. I can't find any documentation as to what key brings this add-on stuff up and I have wandered around the sub pen for hours clicking on everything and wandered around my boat finger "fiddling " everything I can find, (while in port.)

A thought,,

Are some of the messages not encrypted?

I just haven't received one that needs to be decoded yet?

Correct, not all are encrypted. I had the same concern! They will come eventually.

You should receive first encrypted message between September 2-4 1939 if I remember correctly. If you didn't then something went wrong with mod installation.

Most messages aren't encrypted, for gameplay reasons - it would soon get tedious having to decipher every message that is only for immersion purposes and doesn't directly affect your boat.

I received my first encrypted message on september the 2nd telling me to proceed to Kiel, but I didn’t receive it in the message display but in the commander’s hat icon. Check there if, because it is easy to miss...
