Default Few minor problems with TWOS v2.2.18

Hello sailors, commanders, friends!

Recently I've installed TWoS v2.2.18 megamod (clear installation on a new PC). Many thanks for all team/community for such a mod!!

I've found 2 minor problems:

1. Graphical bug (?) with engine telegraph. When submerged, it always shows one position less than ordered. As far as I see in this forum, the issue can't be fixed, but telegraph commands/speed are correct. Any updates on this?

2. Navigation map contains quite a strange depths chart. For example, near Kiel base depths are shown as deep on the map (dark blue), but actually my sonar measurement and visual checks by external camera prove that there're shallow waters around. Was it made for purpose, or I'm wrong with smth.? Btw, depths charts in Atlantic are not on the map at all.


Thanks in advance for your help!

1. That's intentional. Its a side effects from one of the patches in order to achieve realistic rpm/speeds for given engine settings.

2. Depth color map is inverted in TWoS for better KM grid map visibility. This means dark blue for shallow waters and light blue for deep waters. Its little bit unintuitive but without this tweak sqare grids and letters are almost invisible...

Happy hunting Sir!
