on a separate but related note, i noticed that you released a new set of mod for OpsM. Congratulations. did you fix the date issues in the Flotillas files? there is at least one invalid date reference in that file and some other dates that appear to be out of sync. just asking ....as i have not downloaded your new mods.
The dates question was to synchronize the new radio messages that i added in my compilation.

I was not aware of those dates issues you’re talking about...didn’t know.

It's fantastic to see someone is still working on OM. Bravo!

One question though: Have you ever played to the point when a new conning tower is awarded? There is a very nasty bug in OM that prevents the player from continuing the career:

Maybe you could come up with a solution to this problem...

I have very limited skills in modding.
I wish someone like HanSolo from WAC5 or VDR1981 from TWOS could look into this OM mod and find solutions to the few issues it seems to have.
From what i have played yet, other than the sound playing mess, i didn’t encounter any game breaker bug.
But i’m still Far from 1942 and any upgrade to get
When time will come, i’ll See what happens

I can't move the deck gun and crew manning the gun is not able to do this as well. They are just firing straight on 0-degree course. Anyone had a similar problem?

Nope.
Must be an issue on your side...

I have intercepted several american tankers in the Baltic Sea during the 1939 campaign.
Seemed weird to me, is that a possible thing or an error?

why not Americans in this area? They were still neutral in 1939...basically
In fact, i don’t know in reality if American tankers were sailing in Baltic Sea

Maybe to reach some Russian harbor?
Didn’t they trade with Russia? Or maybe Finland or Poland...

No idea why there are US tankers in the Baltic in the game during 1939 but:

- US is still neutral and so was liable to trade with non-belligerents anywhere;

- The USA was the world's largest oil producer and exporter in 1939; and

- It is not inconceivable that Sweden and or the Baltic States, lacking indigenous oil resources, would buy American oil and this would necessitate US flagged tankers entering the European war zone to trade with neutrals.

Not saying that this is what you're seeing but it is certainly within the realm of possibility unless you have positive data for precisely where the neutral states got their oil supplies.

Don't get me wrong guys, I was just asking for advice since I have never seen something like this before.
I was in doubt about it being an error or a possible thing.
It's all right now

Where can I find ship lengths?
I can't see them in the recognition manual.

If you are playing OM+OMEGU+Fifi Compilation, you'll have ships length of course



Even without my mod, i think you have ships length...

I have found your compilation mod mid my second patrol.
Now I regret.

In my version where you have length, I have speed. There is no length.
You had to change it or maybe you have different recognition manual.
Same like in mine there are no pictures for some of the British ships. And when you press next on the page without the picture you get CTD.
